Love to you and your hard working staff!

Hi! Ellen, I am a regular canadian viewer and enjoy your relaxed hour, this card trick is sensationel, I immediately found it on Google after you showed it on your show.

I send you an interesting one: it is old but not everybody is familiar with it, ideal when showed on a blackboard, it goes like this:
3 men, gone for a football game rent a room.
They pay 10.00$ each for a total of 30.00$
Later the clerk realiise it should be only 25.00$.
So he sends the bellboy to remit the 5.00$ overcharged.
The bellboy pockets 2.00$.
He remits 1.00$ to each one of the 3 so they paid (10.00 - 1.00) = 9.00$ each for a total of (9.00 X 3 =) 27.00$.
Final: they paid 29.00$, the bellboy pocketed 2.00$ Where is the missing dollar??
Or/ 30.00$ -(27.00$+2.00$ pocketed=)29.00$)1.00$
So:Where is the missing dollar???

I did this trick with every family members name and different numbers, it works every time. You have got to try it, it's mind blowing. I can't wait for my husband to get home to do it to him. Ellen you are the best.

I wish that I saw you hosting the Oscars last night, because it paled in comparison to your last year hosting. I am sure that you will get a call to come back!! Please go back and be the HOST WITH THE MOST!!!
