Chaff

I’m just too worn out tonight to do any writing, so I will offer some entertaining fluff for my legions of readers: two links from my friend Eugene Jen over at the PubSub command center.

First, an amusing little diversion. Can you work out the simple trick?

Next, some perplexing scientific questions.

    I’ve been to websites like that one before. Freaked me out the first time, but not the second, because the trick is…

    …you gotta make a list of ALL the cards in the original lineup– noting their value AND suit– before you click and have your mind “read.” Compare that list with the cards that appear AFTER you click, and you’ll notice something fishy.

    Veeeerrrrrrrry fishy.

    Hi ChloÁ«!

    No shock to me, of course, that you saw right through it, given your nimble mind.

    Thanks for dropping in!
