i bookmarked the site and will try to learn this in the future. i think im gonna work my way up to 2 decks though, because 1 deck is for wookies.

Dang, I wish I hadn't thrown out so many of the free phone books I get. This is a cool link.

I already have enough useless hobbies like learning every single chip trick possible and building castles with them.
I don't need to be ripping the Yellowpages in half. The advertisers spend lots of money to make it possible.

My great uncle was one of the first people to do this stuff. I think he may have been the first to ever rip a phonebook in half actually. His name was Joe "Strongman" Bonomo. He was in the NFL for a brief period of time, but was most famous for his movies during the silent film era.

wow, thanks for the cool link. I saw this tv thing, where this guy rips a telephone book in half and that was amazing. The guy also drove a nail through a board, but I dont remember him ever wrapping his hand with anything.
You guys think someone could possibly rip a deck of Kem cards in half?
