You know illusionists, right?
Folks like David Copperfield, David Blaine or Ricky Jay - we’ve all seen them and were left in awe and amusement when they performed their unbelievable tricks.
But what, dear fellows, is the mystery behind their magic?
It’s practice. A lot of practice. Exercising and doing the same thing over and over. Until the trick is perfected and the audience can once again be taken out of everyday into a world of magic - at least while the show is on.
That’s a great inspiration, so I decided to follow this example. And so I am going to repeat one of my most successful tricks (Something new, something old…):

There it is! #
Yes folks, as of today, this space has a new moderator!
Lucas Oliveira is an SAP HANA expert hailing from the lovely South of Brazil (somewhere around here)
So join me and give Lucas a warm welcome and make some noise if you liked the trick :wink: .
There you go - now you know!
