That one that comes after 3........

As I write this I am very tired, a result that come from a seven day trip to berlin, in which four days were traveling, and in the traveling no sleep was had by me, followed by five days of juggling, and my first ever juggling performance.

So, this week, one random factoid, and a link that is very old, and probably only amusing to a very small amount of people, one of which being me.

random factoid; the correct term for a spork (fork/spoon hybrid often found on swiss army knives,) is a runcible spoon, and is referenced in the poem "the owl and the pussycat."

Bloggeth the third.

Its probably going to be a short one this week, due to lack of inspiration. also, there may or may not be a blog next week, or the week after, due to time constraints, as I'm going to berlin on a history trip on thursday, and the day after I get back, I'm going to the BJC (british juggling convention,) in which I'm competting in the BYJOTY ( british young juggler of the year,) show. So yeah, me is just a tad busy over easter : ]

Anyways, on with the linkage:

This weeks link is a short animation off of youtube, which is very nice and sweet I think, with a surprisng, and funny ending. Thanks to Little paul off rec.juggling for this, he sent it on the chatroom, and I was really quite ammused by it.

Numba 2

Hello any readers Who happen to be on this strange second rate imitation of a half-decent blog,

Just to straighten this up, as I've had a friend ask me;
Yes, this blog is weekly, but there is no set day on which I release it, just when I get round to/feel like it.

Now thats done away with, on with the blog.

I just thought of this, and it has been a recurring thought in my mind, and those of others I know;
What noise, exactly, does a moose make? Its really been bugging me. I thought maybe, a gutteral growl, thats not overly threatening. anyone who knows get in touch with me, I've linked my myspace, or, if you know me, send me an email, or talk to me on msn.



and now for the link;

This weeks link is from a brilliant web site called www.firebox.com, one of my favourite online stores, which offers anything from a jet engine powered flying car, to a plush puppet of kermit the frog, or even, to this weeks link, a wifi detecting tee-shirt. Yes, a wifi detecting tee-shirt.
seeing is believing.

And on that technocratic note, I'll end this entry.

Lets get things started

Hello To whoever it is that is reading this now (if anyone,)

First I'll introduce myself:
*My names luke
*I'm fifteen
*I'm obsessed by Juggling and my hair
*anything else you want to know, you can read, or talk to me about, on my myspace at www.
myspace.com/the_menatlist_saint

Now I'll introduce my blog:
*There is no point to this blog at all, other than to amuse myself and hopefully you too.
*I'll have random, silly, and avante guard thoughts on here, and a random, silly, or interesting link once every week, when possible
*I won't talk about my feelings on this blog, I have one for that already, and its quite depressing and dreary, and why would you want to read that?


So, to be honest, seen as this is an introductory post, and my mind has suddenly went completely empty of thoughts, I'll just link something I quite like, by a juggler called Wes Peden, who is an amazing juggler and a thoroughly lovely bloke. if you have the time and the money, download the full video (20 mins!) from his website, linked in the description on the right hand side on youtube.LINK:http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=wxnhv5jIy58


Thanks for reading,
Regards,

Luke
