Table Shuffle Pop Out

Cards are faroed on the table and the spectator’s selection is protruding diagonally out the right packet.

Bridge the deck and push with the back of your pinky finger on the corner of the card. Due to the pressure

created, the card will pop out when the shuffle arrives at it. Just like sperm when orgasm hits (unnecessary?).

The better the faro is, the more pressure is created. Play with it and see where you have to apply pressure

and how much.

Tipsy tired.

Are you guys seated well? Have you eaten? Drank? Slept? Goodgoodgood. Good. Good for you. I’m happy for

you. Good. You’ve slept. That’s good. It’s good to sleep. Sometimes. Like, from now and then. And only a couple of hours.

But it’s good. Those couple of hours are good. I’m seeing a future where sleep is like heroin or some kind of drug. A

future where scientist have realized how to deprive people of sleep and not make them need it. But of course, there’ll

be sleep addicts, and sleeping pills will be like weed, heroin or meth today.

…

What the fuck am I talking about? What am I actually writing? I’m supposed to write a magic book, right? Well,

aren’t we all supposed to do that (what?)? I’ve suddenly paid attention to the music I am listening and I shit you not,

it sounds so much like some sort of satanic ritual thing; or opera. It’s either one or the other.

So, what shall we talk about next guys?

No.

Here. I have an idea.

Let’s go fast through all the typical subjects people discuss so we can get rid of those and move on to more

interesting stuff. What do you say? You like it? Great. Let’s start.

School: Hate the teaching. Love my colleagues. Not going to college. (dropped out of HS.)

Sex: Still a virgin. Still straight. (not anymore. You decide which one I’m referring to.)

Kids: Love kids. Wanna have 3 or 5(any odd number is good, except 1).

Marriage: Hate the idea of big weddings. You’re the one who’s supposed to feel good, not the guests. So why

bother planning such a big damn wedding, if you’re going to stress yourself to exhaustion and lose the happiness

that the idea brought you along the way. (FM: these are definitely not typical subjects people go through…)

Family: Have one.

Future: Going to hit the road. Write, create, trave, spread the magicl. Live my dream.

Music: Already told you, so I’ll just name some bands/artists(in no particular order): Ray Charles,

IAMDYNAMITE, Eprom, Flume, Shlohmo, Hanni El Khatib, ASAP Rocky, L’Orange, Asher Roth, John Lee Hooker and Jai

Paul. These are the ones that come to mind now. (Duke Ellington, Chet Baker, Parov Stelar, Nerub, Nicolas Jaar,)

Movies: Shawshank Redemption and Fight Club are some of the best movies ever, from my point of view. Didn’t

like Django Unchained (don’t really like most of Tarantino’s movies, if we’re still at it) though, Oldboy was a

masterpiece. Cried at Titanic (shut up! I was little…, Okok, I cried when I was 16 as well. So what?!), really liked Following

(Nolan’s first movie, if my memory doesn’t deceive me) and thought American Psycho was a piece of must-see,

disturbing art.

Books: Went from romance novels to thrillers, to philosophy, traveling, science, poetry and finally arrived at

reading anything except romantic novels(still enjoy Mike Gayle, though- FM: Not anymore. Read Bukowski people. Paul

Auster, Celine. I could keep on going, but you don’t give a rats ass about me. About future me. The guy that never

published the project. … I’m gonna shut up now.).

Favorite color: Grey (don’t you fucking dare say it’s not a color) and red.

Favorite drink: Whiskey. And if I’m still on alcoholic drinks, I must confess that I have never drank a beer in my

life. I have no idea how it tastes like, just how it smells. Just never liked the idea of drinking beer. (FM: Not valid

anymore. Had my first beer in June.)

Hobbies: I paint from now and then on my walls, draw the occasional free minded drawing(where you just let the

pencil flow as it wants) or abstract art, play basketball, read, write poetry and stories and also play the guitar (left

out jerking off for the obvious reasons which you’ll have to conjure yourself).

I think that pretty much settles is, don’t you think? Your turn now. C’mon, don’t be shy. I won’t bite…, that hard.

I like biting.

Table Thumb Pop

(“More than Pop” on YT)

Deck is placed on the table horizontally.

Deck is held at the ends by left hand: middle and index finger on the front side, thumb on the back.

Get a break beneath the top card with your right thumb.

Break the deck in the middle using your left index finger and at the same time move your right hand forward,

bringing the card along with you. This will cause the card to spin around your index finger and fly in the air (in the

direction that your hand moves) making it look like the card comes from the middle (because of the cut, doh).

You can tell the spectator that there’s a card that acts like your protective ghost, following wherever you go

(or maybe he’s a stalker or a peep or something. get creative.)
