i've finally gotten pretty decent with spinning pencils around my thumb, so now it's time to break out the coin manipulation. don't know what good it will be, aside from keeping me occupied during meetings at work, but it's still kind of fun. this site has some pretty decent instructions, in case you're also boredhttp://www.coinmanipulation.com/

I used to be a pretty damn good coin prestidigitator.(Tip: Large coins are easier to do stuff with than small coins.)

yeah...so far, i'm using a golden dollar coin. just a little larger than a quarter, and it's working nicely so far

you can also use undervalued foreign currencies that have roughly the same dimensions as domestic coins:http://wiki.stealthiswiki.org/wiki/The_International_Yippie_Currency_Exchangethis site lists a bunch of cheap coins that work pretty well

I'm still trying to figure out how to shuffle poker chips. Shit's harder than it looks.
5/25/2009 5:12:09 PM
