Thanks, Ken.

Just want to call and say hello, it's been too long. Incidentally, hello to you, too!

Is Stephen Barnes... alive? I would message him directly, but I can't remember what his username is.

Thanks.

Who wants play Hacky Sack? I don't have shoes, but I have about a dozen facile 32 panel bags (in disrepair) from as many different stitchers. Maybe we can play "where the hell did this bag come from?" over a few beers afterwards. I miss you all.

NICK!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am so, so proud of you, you have no idea!!!

Much love,
Sam

(YAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!)

A little clarification:

- Rain City Shred is Seattle's primary footbag club that has been in existence for 10-odd years (I can't remember when Alex Zerbe and Jane Jones (at the time) started it).
- Paul Burke's primary contribution to footbag was his lunacy.
- Paul Burke's only footbag record is ...

I vote for "Lando Calrissian," since Nick is obviously both black and the crooked administrator of Cloud City.

Hey Aaron,
Nice to hang in Portland! Give me a call about kicking in Seattle before you take off to Berlin. Also posting here to remind you about that commission.

Just got back from the US Open last night. I had to leave early, unfortunately, because I had class at 8:30AM today - ended up sleeping over at Meg's house and then catching a bus in the morning. I guess that means I'm still soaked in sweat from kicking yesterday!

The event was a blast. It was ...

As I'm going to the US Open this weekend, I've resumed playing with Justin and have gotten a good portion of my game back. I'm happy to be getting some exercise again. Throughout the academic year I was having a difficult time balancing cerebral and more physical pursuits. I have a tendency to lapse ...

Just go watch Magnolia or Priscilla, Queen of the Desert instead.

I'll try really hard! peace!

YESSS!!!

I'll come up, of course. Can't wait to see everyone.

Wow, I drop out of the community for a while, and look what I come back to! This is sweet! I am seriously, seriously excited for whatever comes of this!

Also, I don't mean to derail, but has anyone stopped and considered that it might be more important to get better quality people in footbag as ...

I had a session with Justinian and Colclough earlier today. I experimented with mixing Danish Orchards (delicious) preserves into oatmeal prior to that. The results were highly satisfactory.

I didn't hit much during the session, so to speak, but was able to access certain parts of my game I haven't ...

Sorry to post something completely unrelated immediately after Red's very cool post, but I had a request for anyone in the Sole Purpose crew: please, someone, hook Jake Wren up with old videos of Vasek (100 Bars comes to mind)! When I saw him at the Seattle jam, I was asking him to try some combos I ...

I haven't been playing around much with my notion of algorithmic shred, as I haven't been playing a whole hell of a lot. :p

However, for the sake of documentation, here is some stuff I have hit semi-recently:

11x blurry whirl
7x blurriest
symposium torque
symple vortex

I'm getting some new shoes ...

Hey, I would be down to pick up three or four of the cheaper/more broken in bags. Looking to make some sort of round deal? I'm don't really care which bags. Send me a PM or something. Ideally, I'm interested in the ones you're putting up for around 8-10 dollars. Note that I'm going off the ...

Just for the record, I hit Alex Zerbe is the Greatest in front of Alex Zerbe at this jam.

Hey all,
This year there will -not- be a Seattle Juggling and Footbag Festival in the traditional sense for a number of reasons.

However, in lieu of that, Justin and I are thinking of having a Seattle jam (probably under the moniker of SJFF, for consistency's and tradition's sake) at approximately ...

I've been absent from the community for a while, due to being out of the country a number of times and lack of enthusiasm with the footbag community. I'm likely to remain preoccupied, and I'm still not that enthused with the footbag community! :) However, there are elements of the footbag community ...
