Chess Chicanery

I saw a video of one of Derren Brown's shows a couple of months ago and was pretty amazed.

If anything, this feat is more impressive, even with the explanation at the end.

Grand Illusions

In case you didn't notice, the inkless pen mentioned in a previous post was being sold on a site called Grand Illusions.


Since reading about the pen, I've had a browse of the rest of the site and it is truly wonderful! They sell a number of items, but there's also a toy collection that the owner has built up from various sources.

For most of them, there is a small video showing the toy in action. Before you started looking, though, make sure you're not close to your download quota ... it's very addictive!
