Trampoline Juggle Trick!
I found a new juggle trick on the web. It’s the trampoline trick. It’s not as easy as it looks and you have to have the right shirt to pull it off (see what I did there? No?). I found it on a juggling website. It’s part of a few juggling tricks which I recorded…

Sena & The Healing Hibiscus
Sena got a Hibiscus flower recently for the garden. It’s a Tahiti Hibiscus and it’s gorgeous. She’s going to track its progress with more or less regular photos. I looked up Hibiscus on the web and it turns out that it can be healing for some health conditions, although its side effects are not well…

Hey, It’s Active Aging Week!
OK, it’s the first day of National Active Aging Week and I’m urging you to stop that right now! No kidding, that title is comical because it suggests you should actively age, meaning adopt the attitude and habits of sedentary old fart—hey, everybody, let’s all get older right now! Actually, that’s the real name for…

Juggling for Fun
Although I struggle with some juggling tricks, I have a lot of fun too. And some tricks are a hoot because, when you’re a beginner, you never know exactly when you’re going to nail them—like the neck catch. My shower still has a straight across throw that sneaks up a little, but—whatever.

Juggle Trick Medleys!
And now for the first time, juggle trick medleys! I grouped some easy juggle tricks in rough categories for this little video. I also included a neck catch comedy clip. I can do that trick—after 15 or so tries. This was fun and a little more difficult than I thought it would be. On the…

2 Person 5 Ball Pass Juggle Redux!
Sena mentioned wanting to do a repeat of the 2-person 5 ball juggle we did about 3 years ago. So, we did. It’s a hoot. It’s like playing catch, only more complicated because we pass 5 balls back and forth between us. One of us passes straight across and the other passes diagonally. You can…

Watch Out for Fake Columns Juggling!
Hey, I just found out that September is Aging Awareness Month. No wonder I’m bad at juggling columns! I’m just unaware that I should have started juggling way before retirement a few years ago. There’s no getting around it—I need to practice columns if I’m going to juggle fake columns. It looks really cool when…

Drop Kicking the Juggling Balls!
I’m practicing bouncing the juggling balls off my body, this time my foot. You start by juggling the 3-ball cascade, and drop kick one of the balls off the side or the front of your foot. This doesn’t work well at all unless I wear shoes. And even then, it’s not easy. I can sort…

Neck Catch and Other Ordinary Juggling
I’ve got some easy juggling tricks that I cobbled together in a YouTube video and boy is it ordinary. Tricks like under the arm and a simple two ball multiplex aren’t that hard to do with a little practice. But the neck catch is nothing but luck unless you got a neck the size of…

Neck Catch Juggle Trick Coming Up!
Can you guess what I’m doing in the picture? It’s the neck catch juggle trick, which I swore I’d never be able to do. I’m planning a new juggling video with new, so-called easy juggling tricks, ordinary style. I’ve been avoiding the neck catch trick because, well, I figured it would be a pain in…
