Playing Card Prompt - From Episode 04

The Playing Card is pretty special. Right here, in my hand, I can see a doctor, a builder, a dentist and a teacher. Yes, a Jack of all trades. It's Ace but then again that's because it's a different card. 

You get 4 of a kind and these come as chocolate covered biscuits, a mineral composed of pure carbon, a Scottish football team and a garden tool, which comes in very handy for digging out those weeds

You get other cards too like Elvis and a rock band who sing 'It's a kind of magic.' And with magic you can make the cards disappear, then come back again, then disappear, then come back again. You have 52 cards in a pack and they represent 52 weeks in a year. 

During those 52 weeks couples who play cards never divorce, after all they're too busy playing happy families. I did hear a story of one couple who fell out due to the fact the wife did snap once in a while but I don't blame the wife, especially when her husband called her an old maid. She told him to go fish. He came back later with his rod in his hand, smiling and saying let's hit the deck" and by deck I mean bed. So he could poker
