Object:
a deck of cards
Good morning! I brought this deck of cards so I could show
you a card trick. Somebody pick one of the cards out of this deck
and look at it. Be sure that I don't see it. Now put it back in
the deck, and I will shuffle the deck. Do you think I can pick
that card out of the deck now that it's been shuffled? (Let them
answer.) Well, actually I can. (Go through the deck and show them
the card that was picked.*) How do you think I was able to do
that? Do you think I have supernatural power? (Let them answer.)
