Your show was great! You are truly one of my mentors and biggest inspirations in magic! I will never forget those nights that we spent sessioning at your house. I know that I have been out of pocket for quite some time now but look forward to us getting together again in the future.

Doug, I was referred to your site by one of my board members. I am President of West Point Society in San Antonio and we re looking for fresh ideas for our monthly luncheons. Your site is well developed and it appears it may work for our crowd. Most of the graduates are from classes of the 1960s and older; over 70%. The other 30% come from the classes of 1970s through 2001.
Will you send me some info on your costs etc? We are looking to book you sometime in mid to late April. that is when we are planning our next luncheon. We anticipate holding it at the Ft. Sam Houston Golf Clubhouse. Again, great site and I look forward to seeing you perfom for our membership.
Go, Go, Go!!!

I came to your great website from Jim Riser's. Enjoyed your video of the cups and balls as well as the Stones of Tut, and I'd love to read captions for the photos in your gallery. My Saturday audiences here on the Wichita streets love that old charmer, the cups and balls, and I love performing them. Nice website, and in case you're interested, here's mine: www.circle-o.com

A great host is Doug! I met you during the 4th O July weekend and we got to session for several hours at your home. I was very honored that you took the time to tutor me and shared so openly with me! I love your magic and am really digging the Jazz Aces with a twist! The more I do it, the more I realize how much it rocks! I am still working/learning the Elmsley Evercount, actually it is coming along nicely! Also, I love my Stones of Tut... and the pool hall routine. Everywhere I share it, you are there!
That's the beauty of magic!
Love ya,Tim

One of my favorite memories is doing table-hopping closeup magic at Bennigan's in Midland with fellow members of the Black Gold Ring in the mid-80s. Moved to S.A. and was a member of IBM Ring No. 18 where I did the newsletter for a few years. Packed it up when I took a job with long crazy hours and started having kids. Still much enjoy magic and have dabbled a little recently with my son, who is somewhat interested. Very much enjoyed your show at Spaghetti Warehouse on 8/26/06. May have to dig everything out and take up the hobby again. Thanks for your inspiration!

I love your website, Doug, especially the choreography and great skill demonstrated by you and Michael Tallon in the Fecter's video. I agree wholeheatedly with what master magician Bill Malone stated above: that two man cups and ball routine is fantastic!
After seeing you perform your impromptu close-up card magic for us at the Magic Castle last weekend I was simply blown away by your work. You are the consumate magician, Doug. While many people possess the skill to perfect sleights, few performers combine your presence, vocal inflection, physical skill, creativity and the obvious love of the art. You truly have "the look" that audiences and your peers in the magic community have come to expect in a magician.
Bravo, my friend, and the best of luck!

Happy New Year! I am busy doing magic and growing in it! I just pulled out Paul Mim's "Chameleon Cards." They have been on the back burner since July... I know, a long back burner. Magic is sometimes like that! :) Along with the cards is the video I shot of you two at your home. Thanks for the memories. I try to be giving in magic as you were to me. Our son the Marine is now in San Diego. If interested, you can read up on him and the like at my blog. nnylfmit.blogspot.com.
Love ya man...

Hi Doug,
I just saw your performance at the Segettie Warehouse last night, Jan. 20th it was great. I am also learning magic, I have several close-up tricks I have bought from JRC Magic Store. I use some when I conduct Safety Training. I am a Industrial Safety Manager and I think it helps keep the employees attention when a do a trick or two.
Well just wanted to say hi and I look forward to seeing your act again.

Doug,
I will try not to get real emotional with this message but thank you for the time you gave our church and the time you spent with our family. This was with out a doubt the best birthday I have ever had in my 49 years of life. Remember when you were little your mother and father would throw a big birthday party for you and have a clown or a magician or something like that. Well with out even realizing what I was doing I threw myself a birthday party with a world class Magician like your self and a world class card mechanic like Richard. It just dosen't get any better than that. From the bottom of my heart I thank God and richard and you for making my 49th birthday the best I have ever had. You are a WORLD CLASS Human being.
With the spring Open House falling on my birthday every year I should have the greatest birthdays for many years to come.
Your Friend in Christ,
Scott

Hello there. We met this past Sunday during the luncheon at my mother's house in North Carolina. I am Scott's sister. I wanted to thank you for spending time with us and opening up your heart and talents to Freedom Biker Church. It was an incredable experience that I will not soon forget. After losing my father to cancer this past October, it is a blessing for me to meet someone who has conquered this dreaded disease. You are truly an inspiration to many people and I hope I have the opportunity to meet with you again. Please take care and keep up the wonderful work that you are doing. Regard.

Hello, I met you at Ray Price Harley Davidson. I thank God for the pleasure of meeting you and the Cheat. Your gifts are such a blessing. I pray that God will continue to bless you both with many opportunities to perform. I will be attending an Illusion Conference in Branson MO starting tomorrow 05/02/07. My hope is that God will show me new illusions to perform for the Children's Good News Spectacular being held at the Dorton. I look forward to seeing you again. If you have any suggestions for me please contact me through my email: jdpJesus@aol.com God Bless.
