Re: brain teaser

Re: brain teaser

here's one for the kids. place a coin on the table,cover it with a coffee mug so you can't see the coin, now say "I'll bet you I can get the coin out from under the mug without touching the mug, SHAZAM the coin is gone" when they pick up the mug to look, grab the coin...you did it,you picked up the coin without touching the mug. :D
