This is Ted.
He is a Magician.  Ted the Magnificent.

He decided to branch out with his artistic endeavors. Magic was good… but it left him guessing most of the time.

So….. he decided to open an Origami Store uptown.  Unfortunately….. not a great idea.  It folded.

Time was wasting.  Magnificent Ted needed to move on to other things.  He would find something he liked.

Welllll…….. He liked to eat Peppermint Patties.  He came up with his own recipe, and started mass producing the little candies.  Wouldn’t you know?  He made a mint.

However,  the Peppermint Patty People sued him.  So Ted was down on his luck again.

But since luck and magic go hand in hand…. he gave it another try.   However, he still harbored a lot of anger over his past mishaps.  In fact… Ted the Magician got so mad he pulled his hare out.

Don’t fret though.  Things got better for Ted.  He tried his hand at Inventions.  In fact.  He invented a brand new broom…. and now…. it is sweeping the nation.
