you my father taught me how to do this

trick when I was just about your age and

how old are you yeah isn't that a

coincidence that's how old I was yeah

and when you do this trick you are going

to amaze your mother and your father you

need a quarter you can borrow a quarter

you don't have to have your own and a

pack of cards you put the quarter down

on the table you cover the quarter with

the pack of cards and you say Presto

changjo

and look the quarter has turned into a

penny is that an amazing trick yay well

it's not so amazing if you know how the

trick was done okay how did I turn a

quarter into a penny there's the quarter

it got stuck to the back of the pack of

cards because what I did was I put

double face tape sticky tape on the back

of the pack so the quarter stuck and

when I started I started with the penny

hidden behind the quarter you see a

penny is not only less than a quarter a

penny is smaller than a quarter so I put

the penny and the quarter down on the

table and nobody could see the penny cuz

it was under the quarter I covered it

with the sticky part of the pack and I

went Presto chjo and the quarter turned

into the penny did you get it that time

it's the easiest way I know to turn a

quarter into a penny and it's a

wonderful trick unless your parents do

it with your allowance in which case

it's a crummy trick

e if ever you are so angry you can feel

your ears begin to smoke you can put out

the flame play in the game but tell

yourself a joke

I've never met you I know something you

teach you how to do what I

propose ready set here

goes this is my book on rope tricks and

I learned a rope trick in it that I'm

going to teach to you and since it's a

rope trick I'm going to do it with a

rope now this is a rope and you can do

this trick with a rope or with a ribbon

or with um a piece of string you lay it

down and you say to your friends I bet

you that I can grab hold of the ends of

this rope and tie a knot without letting

go of the ends and then your friends

will grab it and they'll try all of this

and all of that oh I've seen them do it

not your friends but mine and then you

say here's how you can grab the ends of

a rope and tie a knot without letting go

of the ends have you figured it out no

here's how you do it you fold your arms

and in one hand you grab one end and in

the other hand you grab the other end

and then you unfold your arms and you've

made a knot without letting go of the

ends the reason you're able to do it is

because you actually fold the knot in

your

arms then when you grab it you transfer

the knot from your arms to the Rope

that's a good trick is it

not you'll get a lot of laughter I've no

doubt I bet you if you'll only try it

out hey hey hey that was great Charlie

well I'm trying to find the right notes

what do you mean I want to sing a song

and I can't find the notes that I need

no no no no no the best way to find the

notes that you need is to make friends

with a note how do you make friends with

a

note some of my best friends are not

it's amazing how much they can do first

they give you way to say things you must

say and they wonderful compy

too some of my best friends are not and

if making new friends is your aim why

the way you make friends with a

beautiful note is you stand up and sing

it by name sing

d

me and with that you can honestly say

I've made four brand new

friends today

some of my best friends are

notes anytime I get sad or

depressed I will pick up and go to some

notes that I know and I'm suddenly back

best some of my best friends are notes

say to make friends with a beautiful

note you just stand up and sing it by

name sing

make four brand new
