Suddenly, without warning, you stand up and perform an amazing magic trick, and nobody can believe their eyes! Could you imagine getting that kind of recognition? Having the power to, at any time, swoop in and steal the entire show? Well, you’d better start imagining it, because today I’m going to reveal my most amazing, show-stealing and “Oh-so astonishing!” magic tricks. FOR FREE!!!
Welcome, one and all, to the August 2010 issue of Defenestration! Prepare yourselves. Prepare to fall in love with hilarity. Because it’s here, on every digital page.

After this read, you’ll be able to pat your belly with contentment. (Or whatever other body part you tap when you’re content. I won’t ask. I’m generally a polite guy.)
