Anyone now of any tricks or slight of hand?
stuff such as body piercing and juggling are okay too.

I can make the tip of my finger come off and go back on:biggrin2:

Pull my finger!! :bigthink:

Pics or it didn't happen

Ain't you got any ventilation in the shop???

Hey Uncle Lewy....I gotsa one for ya....This is really cool!! Respond first and then I will explain how the trick work for an Oreo! So to prove it, I will do this over the internet so that you are convinced there is no way of me seeing anything that you do on your end (that's probably a good thing, too!).

Have someone write down any 3 or 4 digit number, without repeating any digits. So for example, you could choose "7429".


Next, have the person scramble up the digits that they wrote down in their original number to create a new number. For the example up above, they might scramble it up to become "2749".


Then, have them subtract the smaller number from the larger number and be careful with their arithmetic (this is where people make errors and the trick doesn't work). Using the numbers already typed above, we would have: 7429 - 2749 = 4680.


Ask them to coicle (sorry, my Joisey accent is showing) any of the digits in their answer, but they cannot coicle zero, because it is already a coicle. Suppose they coicle the 6 (my favorite number BTW).


Then have them take the remaining digits (the ones that are not coicled, scramble them up in any order and state them to you. You tell them that you will tell them what number they coicled. So for the work above, they could state to you...…"480" or "408" or "840" or "804" or "048" or "084"....


So, now you give it a try....Post your numbers in this thread in any order and I will tell you what number you coicled, then I will tell you how the trick is worked out!!


In fact, if anyone wants to poste their numbers scrambled up in any order, then I will tell you what number you coicled. Give me a little time to respond. Got to work another 14-16 hour day tomorrow.....


Like Uncle, like nephew....I also like THE STEVE MILLER BAND....GREAT SONG!!

I did not know there was going to be any math.

C'mon Unc…..You've known every since I was knee high to a grasshopper that the numbers and me were friends! You can do it. Endeavor to persevere!

I can juggle.....can you?

I know you can. I have seen you juggle the books many times and if you aren't careful, the government is going to come after you. You know that I work for the government, Unc, but my influence only goes so far!
