HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOUDINI

Today is Houdini's 141st birthday. The great escape artist was born on March 24, 1874 in Budapest, Hungary to Mayer Samuel and Cecilia Steiner Weiss. As I do each year,  will gather a collection of birthday greetings from around the web and link them all below. Send me your link if you have one.

Today I will also be giving the great Dorothy Dietrich and Dick Brookz a tour of Houdini's Los Angeles. Dorothy and Dick are in town for the big premiere of The Grim Game on Sunday. You can follow our progress, and come meet us if you like, via my Twitter @HoudiniWild. I've moved the feed to the top of the page for the day.

Because today everyone is wild about Harry!
