An Astounding Magic Trick!

It is the Great Daisini here. We are going to do something extra-fun today! I will teach you how to do a magic trick and you can astound and impress all of your friends. Here I have a quarter. I made a little pocket out of the corner of an envelope, and put the quarter inside.
I am checking the quarter and the paper pocket out very, very carefully! Try to look mysterious when you do this part.
Next, I wave my paw over the quarter and say the magic words "Abracadabra! Please work!"
And then I TEAR the quarter in two! Are you stunned and amazed? I TORE A QUARTER!!!
Here I am making sure the trick worked properly. Ta-dah! Please clap for the Great Daisini!
Do you want to know the secret? Look below...

The "quarter" is made from aluminum foil! Just rub the foil on the quarter to make a lifelike impression. If you do the trick real good, you should get to keep the real quarter.
Important Disclaimer: This trick works much, much better if your audience does not get too close to the "quarter."

  8. Daisini, you are an awesome magician!

    Mom's nephew Mike has always said that a magician should never-ever reveal his secrets, and to always leave 'em wondering! We are glad that you did not listen to Mike so we would not have to keep wondering!

  35. Daisy, a great trick but you're not supposed to tell people the trick behind the trick, clever girl!

    ReplyDelete
  36. You forever amaze me daisy! You are so clever. I thought that was a really good trick but I have a problem. I don't have a quarter to do this trick with. Will it still work if I use a 10p or a 50p piece?

  38. What a wonderful trick Great Daisini! I would never have guessed how to do it if you hadn't shown the solution!

    I was sleeping yesterday (as you know!) so have only just read your Sunday comic. Love it! Brings back happy memories... Black Cat was my C.B. handle. I am the original! No CBer within range could prove prior claim (though some tried). Not competitive usually, but we were "Oliver's Army" even before Elvis Costello was heard of... Me thinks I wax too lyrical... Sorry! :) xxx

  63. Daisy yer trick wuz neat! When my Mummy wuz a little people she made a quarter disapear by aksidentaly swallowing it! I does not rekomend making quarters disapear that way. But I does rekomend making them disapear by buying treats with them!

  64. That's an excellent trick Daisy. Here's one of my favorites:

    Ask someone "can I borrow $10?" When they say "yes" reply "But only give you $5. Then I'll owe you $5 and you'll owe me $5 and we can call it even!"

    This works really well when your victim has had several pawtinis!

    Your pal,

    Petey

  65. The way things are going, that tinfoil quarter will be worth about as much as the real one ...

    ReplyDelete
  66. Sneaky, Daisy. Good trick.

    And we like your modeling tips in the next post.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I can't even express how much I love your facial expressions, Daisy. And it was a fantastic trick! You are a bright spot in my day.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Daisy--
    I'm still not sure how I get a hold of the real quarter.

    My best trick is making food disappear.
