Re: Think of a card
Jerry Sadowitz has a great version of OOSOOM called No Questions Asked which speaks for itself, using six cards, but with a little spec control, I use nine. Killer version.

Re: Old movies featuring magic..
Jack, thanks for the tip. I can't believe that this is the first time I've seen LePaul on film after all the years that I've been in magic. He had a great personality on film and I'm sure on stage. He was my idol when I started and I will always cherish his book.
