What an awesome find in the "free bin" at the co-op! A discarded library book in perfect shape! I remember my brother playing one of many dirty tricks on me as a child...I think I was 11 and he was 18. He had me pick a card and bet me what was a large sum of money to an eleven-year-old that he could guess my card, making it seem impossible. After he incorrectly guessed and I smugly demanded my money, he played a Penn & Teller video that bored me, but destroyed my win. Penn or Teller held up my card! Cute, but it sucked!

Remembering this, I snatched this book out of the bin intending to read it and send it off to him. I could tell this would be a pretty interesting read, as Penn & Teller are much more brilliant than I had previously thought, but I could also immediately see that they share my brother's a-bit-too-dark humor, not mine. So I read a few pages and I'm sending it off to him.
I give it a 7/10 because I think it's good, just not for me. Enjoy! ( )
