Notch in the Crown's

Thought I'd tear a thumb sized notch out of the side of a deck of tough and nasty Gold Crown cards. Now that's fun!

Earlier today I came across a person who was at my performance on Saturday. She was very complimentary of my show and had a question for me. "How can you do the things you do?".

I told her the same thing I tell everyone, I believe I can. One of my favorite quotes is this, "whether you think you can or you think you can't - you're right". I'm not sure who said that but they nailed it!

Another Day At The Office

While working on the computer tonight I looked over and saw my camera and some mini decks of cards. I thought to myself - Hmm, I haven't videoed a mini notch yet. So I grabbed a deck and hit record while sitting at my desk.

I've been doing a lot of deck notching lately with both the full sized and mini decks. Like I mentioned in the previous post, it keeps it interesting...

More fun with the mini decks.

Notched

One of the more difficult card tears to complete is to rip a thumb sized chunk out of the side of a deck. This is referred to as notching. Not only does this require a strong squeeze from the entire hand to initiate the tears, but it also takes a very tight pinch to be able to remove the notch. Pictured is a top level name brand full deck of plastic coated playing cards that I notched.
