Technically this is the 4th Day of Christmas as depicted in the song “The Twelve Days of Christmas.” Today is the 4th day here in NYC and there are no 4 calling birds to be found, just a bunch of pigeons. Although by no means intended as substitute for 4 calling birds, we do have 3 posts at various websites to share with you. Pretty surprising they are here at all since all things on our end are supposed to be closed for the holidays and New Years. Anyway, these blog entries can be found at Houdini Day, Invent Mentalism and Magic Neighbors.
