    When you said your wife gave you Deep Astonishment for your Birthday I assumed she'd bummed you with a dildo
    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          There lies a facinating insight into how your mind works baggy.

          I for one am quite scared now.

                      How on earth could he know, answer also below


                      its called the one ahead trick. The first envelope was from a stooge in the audience. While he described the stooges picture, he was actually looking at mine. the stooge nodded. The second envelope, he described mine but was looking at someone elses piccie.


                      One of my favourite card tricks works the same way. You ask someone to pick a card whose location in the deck laid out in front of him face down you know, then pick up the card he selected and 'check it' and say 'yes, that's correct (or whatever), then ask him to pick the card you have actually just picked up. After he picks another, you finish by picking up the one you had stashed in the deck. Then ask him to name the three cards, which you now hold.
