    A woman actually asked me for the 13 of Diamonds last night. Everyone thought it was hilarious.

    I was at a bar last night, hanging out with some people on the porch. I always like to arrange the four queens in easy to get to places in the deck and then ask female spectators what their favorite card is. 50% or more will name a Queen.

    Card prediction to Walnut in Discoverie of Witchcraft, circa 1584

    I recently bought a hardback copy of Discovery of Witchcraft. I had been looking for one for a long time. It looks like a facsimile of the original first edition, however it does contained minor tweaks originally made in a reprint in the early 1800s. It is still in the original Middle English...

    Simple gaff cards have a way more dramatic effort than I imagined

    I got one of these $11 "Chic Decks" from Penguin. From what I can tell, they were made by a Chinese magic company had them mass produced from USPCC at some point and it is basically the only standard Bicycle Gaff deck that anyone still has left for sale. It comes with a barely readable sticker...
