The only thing that seems to be missing is the Pee-Wee Herman dance.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t even listen to the song. The magic of a baby sporting a mustache had me cracking up.
Ladies, this video will convince your man to have kids. Please note that he will only cave in if you allow him to put a mustache on the baby, boy or girl.
Where have I been? What have I been doing? I am sure my absence on the blog hasn’t even registered with you, but once every year my mother may type in the address so this update is for her.
Obviously, I have been busy training hard for this new extreme sport:
I said this was for my mom, so I’ll spare you the description of my sweaty overweight body performing on the pole.
Honestly, I think these guys need to take it to the next level. There needs to be a big spring at the bottom of the pole. Is this more of a religion, than a sport? Ask the goats.
Thanks eckeletic!
However, that’s not quite as bad as it seems, as long as you happen to be visiting the House of Air at the time.
Despite its name, the House of Air has the requisite walls/roof configuration. Instead, the nifty moniker hails from the idea of grabbing some air in Skateboarding, which seems odd as the place is going to be chock-full of trampolines of varying sizes and orientations.
Sorry? Oh yes, I did wonder if you’d notice that ‘going to be’ bit. Well, they haven’t actually finished building the place yet, but they have released some video footage of the building (oh the joy) and some 3D renderings of the (bouncy) fields of play.
Now, I know that’s only a computer mock-up, but that looks like a huge amount of fun!
Apparently, they’ll be organising all sorts of activities, ranging from the purely fitness and agility related sort, all the way up to and including just bouncing around like a lunatic.
My current favourite idea? Dodgeball on a trampoline field.
Sweet.
Just a pity that this is going to be in San Francisco, while I’m stuck in England…
Arsebiscuits.
I’ve seen this kind of thing before and always loved the inherent grace that these people have. While many standard jugglers are admittedly amazing in that they can frantically keep x amount of balls/fruits/knives/whatever in the air at the same time, I’d have to say that practitioners of contact (or tactile) juggling are much better value for money.
While your focus is concentrated on the solitary glass ball, the act can then become almost balletic or even narrative.
Witness, then, this Japanese fellow, courtesy of (of all places) Failblog.
Want to learn more about the history of contact juggling? Why not drop by the snigger-inducing Ministry of Manipulation.
This is an excellent recut, but it loses points because it is such an old movie and I barely remember it. Honestly, I don’t think I ever saw the movie.
