Legerdemain is a noun that refers to sleight of hand.  The French phrase ‘legerete de main' (lay ZHEY ray de mahn) translates to ‘lightness of hand.' It's a synonym for ‘dextrous' and it's often used to describe magicians or others skilled with hand trickery. Our word of the day comes directly from this term. Example: Mike's legerdemain would have made him a great illusionist. But unfortunately, he chose a different career path. Somehow I don't think his chosen profession of pickpocket is nearly as appreciated by people. 

To investigate the word "Hoax", we need to talk about magicians and the Catholic liturgy. This episode is about a fake word, in a way. A made up word. But what is true, is that people have been hoaxing the public for centuries. Whether is the story of a woman who gave birth to rabbits, the Fiji Mermaid, or Balloon Boy, why are people so gullible or is it just our psychology that makes us want to believe? Well I've consulted the media, history books and dictionaries to find out.

legerdemain slowly circling, slowly circling, tongue flicking out, flicking in, fringes of my cheek an old tasseled rug and syllables whistling through it like kettle steam, don't leave, don't leave us, air rushes from the hole through which you hooked me, i am hushed, our vision kept close to vest, blush of our promise fled your breast, what's left, fast-fingered my heart your palm to next, i am left guessing an illusionary conjuring before my eyes while faith gathers necessary branches to withstand another long night alone inside my ribs. #barflypoet #josephapinto www.josephpinto.com © Copyright Joseph A.

The Chickonain High Ambassador, Pollywannacracker, and his aides have arrived aboard Concordance Station. But they’ve brought with them a most surprising cargo, that could potentially derail the perilous peace talks between the United Earth Confederation and the Chickonian Empire. Will Doctor WHeasel, The Brigade Leader and Advick Goose be able to navigate the choppy waters of diplomacy, or is everything about to go to heck in a handbasket?

One Advick Goose is trouble, but two Advick Gooses…Geeses…could be the gateway to calamity. What is Advick’s imperfect duplicate’s agenda? Is he a loyal member of the Chickonian Empire, an agent of chaos or something more? And what of Doctor WHeasel and the Brigade Leader’s negotiations with the Chickonian Empire? Can the appearance of a dupligoose herald the beginning of the end, the end of the beginning or something else?

Aboard Concordance Station, Doctor WHeasel, the Brigade Leader and Advick Goose find their future holiday rudely interrupted by realpolitik. With two space-faring empires on the verge of war, are the trio equipped to successfully navigate the pending diplomatic discord on behalf of Earth’s government? Or, will they fall afoul (sorry, not sorry) of the Chickonian Empire’s fine-feathered schemes?

In the 28th Century, the cold war between the Chickonian Empire and the United Earth Confederacy is starting to crack. Meanwhile, after the epic and near terminal events on his home world of Galloway, Doctor WHeasel has retreated to the relative tranquility of his work for Earth’s extra-terrestrial defence agency, ENTITY in 1970s Britain. But when an innocent comment from the recuperating Brigade Leader sparks his imagination, the Time Weasel wanderer starts on a course that may see him playing a pivotal role to avert a battle beyond the stars!

Steve Cooper talks with musician Duncan Sheik. Duncan had a Top 20 hit with the song Barely Breathing from his 1996 eponymous debut. He had three more albums land on the Billboard 200 by the end of the next decade, including his fourth full-length, 2002's Daylight. After scoring his first feature-length film, 2004's A Home at the End his career turned toward Broadway with the success of 2006's Spring Awakening, a hit rock musical. It won him the Tony for Best Original Score as well as a Grammy for Best Musical Show Album, both with lyricist Steven Sater. He continued to juggle adult-alternative albums, film scores, and musical theater in the years to follow, issuing his eighth solo album, Legerdemain, in 2015 and moving his musical American Pyscho to Broadway in 2016. For that show, he served as composer, lyricist, and orchestrator. He reunited with Sater for Alice by Heart, a musical adaptation of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland that opened off-Broadway in 2019. He also just released the album Live at the Cafe Carlyle.  

Sleight of hand.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 6, 2020 is: legerdemain • lej-er-duh-MAYN • noun 1 : sleight of hand 2 : a display of skill and adroitness Examples: "An example of Mr. Northam's political legerdemain is his tax proposal, which avoided the minefields of income or sales tax increases. Instead, he suggested hiking the gas tax while scrapping mandatory annual vehicle inspections and halving vehicle registration fees." — The Washington Post, editorial, 20 Dec. 2019 "One must find the resonance between ancient and contemporary, blending incongruous elements in a way that seems not only right but inevitable: telling the story of a founding father with hip-hop lyrics, as in 'Hamilton,' or presenting the myth of Theseus in the milieu of reality television as in 'The Hunger Games.' Kekla Magoon manages a similar feat of legerdemain in 'Shadows of Sherwood,' her compelling reboot of the Robin Hood myth." — Rick Riordan, The New York Times, 23 Aug. 2015 Did you know? In Middle French, folks who were clever enough to fool others with fast-fingered illusions were described as leger de main, literally "light of hand." English speakers condensed that phrase into a noun when they borrowed it in the 15th century and began using it as an alternative to the older sleight of hand. (That term for dexterity or skill in using one's hands makes use of sleight, an old word from Middle English that derives from an Old Norse word meaning "sly.") In modern times, a feat of legerdemain can even be accomplished without using your hands, as in, for example, "an impressive bit of financial legerdemain."

Legerdemain is the true story that takes Jim Heaphey through the alleyways and bathhouses of Casablanca, the exotic Arabian Nights-like Fair in Marrakesch, the settings of the privileged in Cairo and the hillside villages of Cyprus. The story unveils the workings of MI6, the CIA, French Security Force, the Moassad and the KGB. In so doing, the story brings to the reader an understanding of the Islamist mind and sets the stage for the affairs of the Twenty-First Century.

Everybody attains level two, and won't stop talking about it. Robin hires the party to save Hobb and bring Karrell to justice--though Benadyl and Emen Neme might define justice a mite differently. Karrell has made some changes back at Diddly's Inn, and Johnny Skald is just the guy to make some new friends.
