I couldn’t find a magic thread so here it is.

Yahoo’s been sending me things like this so maybe it’ll catch on (or not):

Perhaps you’ve tried Rubics cube ?
(Based on previous responses you won’t admit it):

:lol:

When I used to go to Antwerp regularly for business I sometimes had to stay over a weekend. I had time to walk about the city center. The cathedral had life-sized statues depicting its construction. A street performer would dress up like the statues and kneel amongst them with a hammer and a chisel. Next to him was a bowl for coins. Every time someone put a coin in the bowl he would strike the chisel with the hammer. Kids out with their parents for a weekend stroll loved it. I may even have dropped in a coin or two myself. ;)

One of my favorite shows to watch (re:magic) is Penn and Teller's Fool Us.

Penn & Teller are awesome. I've had the opportunity to see them a few times in Vegas over the last twenty-some years. Once got a chance to do a meet & greet with them and Teller was out of character, totally talking it up. Freaked me out! Dunno why I just assumed he was always like that :lol:

I saw and heard him speaking on a show about Houdini not too long ago. Actually, two shows. I think in the first one, they shadowed his face when he spoke, but not in the second one.

Yep, Teller's "muteness" has always been a part of their act. The whole gig is showmanship/performance. Yes, he can speak. :biggrin:

now that's crude.

Let's see how the expert does it, first the traditional way that requires expierience, in the second half of the clip using a tool that lets anyone work easily on the lock.

To note, when done by this non-destructive way the lock mechanism can be reused with a new set of keys, the code for filing the key read from the tool. A locksmith could also repin the core to a matching key already owned.

Fair warning: OGLAF comics are USUALLY filthy jokes! This one is clean, even SFW, but if you wander around the site it is your own darn fault!
