  • Side By Side Steal Juggle

    Side By Side Steal Juggle

    We took a couple days to get the hang of the side steal juggle. It’s not easy and a lot of the throws look more like sneaky passes than steals. But it’s a lot of fun! Sena juggles with her arms really reaching for the sky, like she’s getting robbed—which actually fits this complicated crime…

    Juggling Updates

    Well, I’ve been juggling for a year now. I have been trying to learn the shower juggling pattern for 6 months. I can still do only about 3-4 throws. I think it’ll happen eventually. All of the juggling balls are downstairs on the lower level since all the upstairs doors were repainted. We can’t scuff…

  • Claw Back Those Juggling Balls in The Steal!

    Claw Back Those Juggling Balls in The Steal!

    Sena and I have been practicing the front steal trick in juggling. It’s another two-person juggling pattern that took us a couple of days to get right—sort of. We tried it at first by counting the throws (and catches), which helped us sustain the pattern. On the other hand, it was a lot more fun…

  • Geezer Level One Leg Stand Juggling

    Geezer Level One Leg Stand Juggling

    This is just a suggestion for whoever’s on the rules committee for juggling world records. Recall that a couple of young guys grabbed world records for longest time juggling the 3-ball cascade while standing on leg. The current world record is a little over 22 minutes. Wow! I think there needs to be a new…

  • Sena and Jim Do Two Person Juggling Again!

    Sena and Jim Do Two Person Juggling Again!

    Against all odds, Sena and I did what looked impossible the other day—Two Person 5 ball 2 Count Asynchronous Juggling. For some reason that was harder to learn than the first two person juggling trick we learned. You can find only a stick figure GIF of how the trick is done on the web. It’s…

  • Air Purifier Went to Code Green and More Odds and Ends

    Air Purifier Went to Code Green and More Odds and Ends

    Just some odds and ends here today. Our new RENPHO Air Purifier went to Green Air Quality yesterday around lunchtime. It’s the first time since we got it that it changed. Green still means “good” air quality. Blue is “very good.” Orange is bad, red is “polluted,” and magenta is “evacuate now!” The fan speed…

  • Clumsy Juggling

    Clumsy Juggling

    We decided to kick it up a notch with our two-person ball passing juggle routine. We switched out three of the bean bag Zeekio balls for some glowing LED juggling balls. The LEDs are bigger and heavier than the bean bags, which led to more challenging passes. They also look better in low light, so…

  • Two Person 5 Ball Passing Jitterbugging Juggling!

    Two Person 5 Ball Passing Jitterbugging Juggling!

    Sena and I are going to break the internet with another video of two person juggling! OK, so maybe we won’t exactly break the internet—but we might give it a nosebleed. We had to think of a way to top our recent side hug version of tandem juggling with 3 balls. So, we tried the…

  • Discover Tandem Juggling Just for Fun!

    Discover Tandem Juggling Just for Fun!

    I found out about tandem juggling yesterday and learned how to do it from a YouTube video by genius juggler Niels Duinker and his sidekick, Piet van Steen. Sena and I picked it up pretty quickly. It’s a wide frame form of the 3-ball cascade. All we had to do was practice throwing a little…

    Now Playing! See My Psychiatric Times and Medical Word News Juggling Videos

    My juggling video is up for viewing now on the Psychiatric Times website! The title is “A Journey of Juggling.” It’s in the section called More Than Medicine. You can also find it on the Medical World News website with a slightlly different title, “After Hours: Juggling 101.” It’s in the section called After Hours.…
