Quick Mental Magic Trick

[I'm Joe Dirt]

I was just reading the book "Snake Oil: Life's Calculations, Misdirections, and Manipulations" by Jim Rose and he has a bunch of cool tricks and swindles in it.

One that is very short to explain and could be used as part of a magic/psychic routine is the following:

Tell a girl to look at a calendar (could be on her cell phone, or could be one you have on you, etc.) and pick 3 consecutive days in any month and add up their values.

She then will tell you the SUM TOTAL and you will almost instantly tell her which days she picked!

Example: 54
Days: 17, 18, 19

How does it work? Whatever number she gives you, divide by 3. That will be the number in the middle, thus you now know all 3 days.

Cool huh?

I think it makes for some entertaining material to fill up the time.

It sure beats asking her if she has any pets or what she does for work as a routine.

Combine this with a few other magic tricks, perhaps a little bit of a psychic reading done via cold reading, and it makes you more interesting.

You are trying soooooooo hard, it's really funny and amusing.

As part of my commitment to David DeAngelo's material for 90 days I've been taking his advice on never talking about anything normal.

It has worked out suprisingly well.

The obvious challenge is to fill up time with unusual or entertaining things to say, and I know that a lot of guys here are having a problem coming up with cool things to talk about too. So when I try something out or have a good idea I post it, to you know, share information and ideas. Thats kind of the point of this forum

So take your attitude to another thread.

I'm trying too hard? Well I am trying, I suppose. Then again aren't you? Isnt the very act of being on this forum that is dedicated to learning about women and how to win them over trying too hard? (given that there are naturals out there who never learn about any of this stuff and do fine)

I tried this trick a few times with my own 3 numbers and it didn't work once.

It's basic math:

(X - 1) + X + (X + 1) = 3X

3X/3 = X

Yeah, you have to add 3 consecutive dates. You cant just say a random number or it won't work. For example the number 25 does not divide equally by 3, thats why there is no 3 consecutive dates that add up to 25.
