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…

Update to Chat with Bard
My recent chat with Google Bard, about which I posted on April 11, 2023, contained an error by Bard on all those strikes by physicians. Today I asked some follow-up questions: How many physician strikes have occurred in the United States? “There have been a few physician strikes in the United States, but they are…

How’s It Hanging, Bard?
I read the experiences of Dr. Ron Pies and Dr. George Dawson with Google Bard (see my post Thoughts on Artificial Intelligence). So I had my own conversation with Google Bard yesterday. Hi, Bard; how’s it hanging? “I am doing well, thank you for asking! I am excited to be able to help people with…

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…

Stuck in Two Ball Shower Juggling Practice
I get stuck at certain stages in juggling. It’s uglier than usual with learning the Shower. I’m struggling with the two-ball practice. I’ve looked at the YouTube videos of several experts and their demos vary. I found out from a Wikipedia article that the two ball Shower is a thing. But it’s not juggling. I’ve…

Juggling in Living Color!
Sena got me a spectacular gift—glowing juggling balls! They’re not like any of the juggling balls we have. You plug them into a wall socket and they light up. They are not much bigger than the other juggling balls we have, so not much of a learning curve. In a way, they’re kind of like…

Feisty and So On
There’s this dialogue in Men in Black II between Serleena and Zed: Serleena: Zed, look at you, 25 years and you’re still just such a looker. Zed: Cut out the meat dairy. And you, still a pile of squirmy crap in a different wrapper. Serleena: So feisty. I’m becoming more aware of the use of…

Ugly Juggling Hits the Shower
OK, I’ve found out that there’s more than one way to hit the shower pertaining to the juggling trick called “The Shower.” As usual, my form is ugly because I’m in the early practice phase of trying to learn the shower. But then, even when I think I’ve got a trick down—it’s always ugly. Anyway,…
