7.4.2011 The harlequin has a third trick: a magical transmutation. "A feat of mental acrobatics." he promises. I sit back to watch and enjoy. I assume that the sleight of mind has already been done and it has. He takes a large blue diamond and stands it on end. On top of that he places a yellow one. Then, alternating blue and yellow, he constructs a delicately balanced sculpture. At the end of this diamond chain he hangs a red ball. His movements are a dance that puts me into a trance.

"Okay." he says, leaning over in an elegant bow, "Now for the presto-chango."

He looks at me and asks, "I am in your thoughts, correct?"

I nod.

"And now.." he smiles and twirls his hands, "I am in the thoughts of your readers."
