So I fucking pwn3d the job interview (as expected) and have a job now working for a cool environmental organisation. Sounds cool. One of the guys doing the interview had seen me play footbag at Salamanca and was soooooooo stoked on footbag - like when the topic came up (as it does in every conversation I have with anybody ever ;) ) he was more excited about it then I was :P Also I know the evironment pretty well and have some ok computer skills :)

Afterwards I did some circle kicking with a couple of guys I saw kicking a bag and that was really fun. I tried to recruit them but we'll see. One of them had very strong flyers - he hit a run with about 4 or 5 unique flyers - cross body flying toe kicks, jesters, butterfliers, buterfliers with toes - I was impressed. Flyers are very cool - I'm going to start putting them mid string I think (or at least trying.

When I got the call about getting the job my brother slapped me while I was on the phone. So I cut his tongue out and now I have blood on my good shirt :( Ok I made that bit up but he did slap me. :( Anyway I punched him a few times.

Not much else to say.

So I sold a bag to Jesse a while ago and he kept sending the money and it not arriving. I was a little unsure if he was acutally sending it or not. I was sure he must have the wrong address but every time I asked him he said he had it right.

Anyway finally last night he told me that he did have the wrong address and had been sending it to number 20 not number 12. So I went around a second ago and it turns out the people who live there (who had my money) are the same hardcore christians that preach down at the markets right next to where we play... lol - anyway the story has a happy ending so that's good.

so I've been bag making but jumped up twice to have a random kick and both times hit something good - pdx drifter>pdx blender bsos (although very basic run - pdx drifter>pdx blender>butterfly>pdx drifter>pdx blender) and then just a second ago - frenzy! with my flipside frantic set.

New footbag goal for me - frenzy>frenzy - Like with dominatrix>dominatrix I think it will take me about 6 months from when i decide I want to hit the combo (I've never hit frenzy on the other side) but definitly something to aim for :)


Oh I sealed my frenzy with an osis :) - maybe I'm getting too good at that move to be a NOP ;)

lol that's creepy hey... but i guess being christians they were more likely not to spend all the money mysteriously appearing on their doorstep ;)

Anyway I hit frenzy on my other side today too - also some cool links like pdx dlo>frantic legover and sailing legover>frantic pickup :) So yeah. frrrrrrrrrrantic rocks.

Jeremy, I dont remember saying what year it was that you could kick me. Seeing as Im the more mature one, I guess I will pick the year that best suits me.

BTW, thats funny that your brother ate a footbag template. Haha, what a n00b. pwn him good
Hopefully back one day.

Props on the frantic. I think its one of the cooler looking sets. If I get to Australia, I promise I will punch at least one freestyler in the nuts. I want to make it a tradition in Oceania... I already nut-boxed one Kiwi on my last trip. :twisted:

yeah cheers. Ken we can play roshambo :D I will go first.

I had a very fun night last night - partying on with 3 cute girls. At one stage in a club there were 7 girls dancing and me :). I guess that means I win ;) I scored too :D

Just got home now at 9:30 am. Am going to play footbag/train with Glenn today sometime soon. Also have a cool demo arranged for the week end after next. The weather has been so fucking good the last three days - no clouds, no wind and mild 20ish C - it's fucking awesome for winter. I would say perfect for footbag so it rocks! Can't wait to play today!

lol. I'll explain when you're a bit older ;) :D

So I had a good session with Glenn. We were outside because it was such a fantastic day. I mainly drilled torques - which are coming along really well. I now expect to hit pdx torque every time - rather than being happy when I do hit it - at least on oneside and the flipside is fairly good too. Stuff like blurry torque and pixie torque were felling consistant. My blenders are getting a lot better too.

Glenn almost has clipper happening and hit or came really close to clip>far legover (I wasn't watching). So that's good. He also did a really cool 5 ball juggling pattern with a 2 ball in each hand multiplex where they cross over at different heights in the air while the fitth ball goes straight up - looked very cool. And he got kissed by a drunk man too.

Jeremy, what's wrong with the youth of today? No respect! You should see some of the shit I gotta put up from Jesse.

I say, all them young smart-arsed punks gets an eyebrow shaved at the Australian Chams in Jan. You with me there? I'll bring down my clippers - you hold 'em down, I'll give them a trim. :twisted:
