¿Quiénes más mágico -- Jesús Cristo o Harry Potter? ¿Quién es más mágico -- Sabrina la bruja adolescente o David Copperfield? ¿Quién es más mágico -- Alan Moore o Gandalf? ¿Quién es más mágico -- Sun Ra o el Mago de Oz? In this week's episode ofTalking bout Practice, Billy Ray Stupendous and I posed th questions that few dare pose, in an attempt to discover th truth about magick. What happened next will either not astound you or astound you, depending on what sort of person you are, what kind of day you had, and what yr life in general is like.
