Introducing the Hula Shower Juggle!
Today, I spent a lot of time practicing the shower juggling pattern. I didn’t know it at the time, but I invented a new variation of the shower: the hula. I made a video of it and about a minute and a half into it, I noticed I was doing the pattern wrong. It looked…

Beating My Head on The Shower Wall
I’ve been practicing the shower juggling pattern. I’m combining at least a couple of different methods, which may or may not be helping me improve. I’m using JuggleMan’s advice about trying to get some extra space in between the balls so I feel less rushed. I’m also trying to use Taylor Glenn’s method of combining…

Where is Juggling and Foosball on the Homunculus?
I saw an interesting article published in Nature about the homunculus being outdated because of a new brain MRI study indicating that there’s a mind-body connection between the motor cortex and neural networks controlling planning and thought. There’s a mouthful for you. It makes me wonder about a few things. For example, can I improve…

Practicing the Shower Juggle Inches Along
I’ve been practicing the shower juggling pattern and progress has been slow. Part of the problem is that it’s a difficult pattern and very fast. I have trouble getting elements of it solid. For example, I tend to make the horizontal transfer from my non-dominant hand more of a toss-up. That makes it look more…

Sena The Flashy Juggler!
Sena is a flashy juggler now, OK! She is now able to do the 3-ball throw and catch (for the cascade eventually), and in my Learn to Juggle manual, that means she is now juggling. She counts the throws, pays attention to the juggler’s pane of glass (the juggle space) and just generally has a…

Tufted Titmouse Playing Peekaboo
Once in a while when I’m filming wildlife, I get an odd feeling that the animal somehow knows it’s being watched. It looks up and seemingly right at the camera. I got that feeling while making a short video of a Tufted Titmouse the other day. It seemed to stare at me while I filmed…

Why Sena’s Juggling Balls Are Resting
Sena’s juggling balls have been silent lately, meaning I’ve not been hearing them hit the floor. She is pretty busy doing other things, like gardening. But I’m pretty sure another reason is dropping the balls. She and I are probably at about the same learning stage in juggling. She’s trying to get past the hurdles…

Ugly Juggling Shower Slow Practice is Still Progress
I’m still practicing the shower juggling pattern. I’ve got an ugly presentation with claw-grabbing, flattening the half shower fake jobs, and uneven throw spacing. But I’m not quitting yet. I’m trying to follow the JuggleMan’s example. I didn’t get a breakthrough until yesterday when I tried my black and gold Hawkeye juggling balls. I guess…

How Are Water Heaters and Jugglers Alike?
Let’s start off with a riddle I think I made up. I can’t find it anywhere on the web: How are water heaters and jugglers alike? The answer is at the end of this post. I’m still practicing the shower juggling pattern. Progress is slow. I found a YouTube channel called YouJuggle. It’s this guy…

Juggling My Birthday Glow Balls
Hey, it’s my birthday and it turns out the juggling glow balls are my early gift. Sena decorated my cake, using cookie icing that sort of spread out. You got to love the birthday card she got for me. “Selective Listening Ensures the Survival of Man.” Or at least this man. Just for the occasion…
