If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

You are right of course - but I did have to read it a couple of times before it made sense. :) lol.

To answer the question, I am sure there are some, but for the life of me I can't think of anything other than Card on Ceiling (at the moment). Certianly though, MW and IT seem to go hand in hand.

I'm sure there must be something...

But I can't think of it.

creating imptromptu double back cards or "hiding" selected cards behind other cards and being able to toss them on a table as one..loads of different things can be done if a little thought is applied... sticking a selected coin to a watch face during a steal(just thought of this one as i typed so its mine!!!)

M.W. uses, except IT and C.T.C...

1. Place a blob on your belt. You now have a repository for swami's, coins, etc.

2. You can use it to attach two coins together, to show as one, i.e. in a coins across routine

3. You can keep items stuck UNDER a table after lapping them

4. As no 3, but you can keep items UNDER a table before using them

5. You can use it to temporarily attach glim to shoe, fingernail etc

6. You can load a thin disc of hard MW to the back of a playing card to act as a locator

7. You can use it with the Raven to vanish small non-ferrous items

8. You can use it to put your show posters up ;)

9. You can add a waxy layer to the back of your card case to allow it to pick up the top card of a pile

10. You can make a simple impromptu thumb swami out of it if your regular swami goes missing

11. You can use it on the corner of a silk as a 'weight' when doing flourishes

12. You can use it as a temporary tooth filling if you break a molar during a gig

13. Use a small ball of it on your thumbnail to do an impromptu 'balancing match' effect

Hmmmm,

Most of the suggestions here are probably better with Blue Tac as opposed to MW :?

I would go for the simple cut and restored piece of string as being the best MW effect I know.

Can't be done with anything except MW, Blue Tac won't work, very strong effect.
