Card Trick

Has anyone heard of or seen the "Great Le Woogie" card trick?

It came to me as a "Forward" in my e-mail by a relation.

IT is uncanny and I want to know how it works?

You see 6 playing cards and you pick one and concentrate on it for 20 seconds. Then you scroll down and that card out of 6 is gone!

I've tried it 3 times tonight- even sneaking up on it, and it has worked every time! The same e-mail! I've picked 3 different cards 3 different times and each time that card was removed when I scrolled down.

I'm hesitant to Forward it to anyone in case of a virus, because it is a "Forward Forward Forward"- as I call them..

There is a web site for the trick:

Like all "magic", deceptively simple once you know the answer. I can PM anyone who would like to know.

Okay, I'll go along with Harry, here, and not spill the beans. . .

This one's been around a long, long time.
