"IT IS DONE...!"

Another self-working card trick. The cards do all the work for you! A
wonderful, effective trick.

<a href="http://magic.about.com/library/tricks/bltrick43a.htm">New Trick: It
is DONE..!</A>

"NEIGHBORS"

The world's easiest card trick! In a shuffled pack of cards, you cause two
cards, that the spectator just thinks of, to lie next to each other in the
shuffle deck. You don't even have to touch the cards!
