Hey Jack, I actually put one up at your school today.

I can give you a stack to put up inside if you want, too.

The website is so bad ass, go Peng!

I am the only one in the Bios because I was the only one Peng had a head-shot of. about the olive oil.. no comment. :P

The forum is in no way meant to rival these forums, its there to act as a good way for the club to organize meeting times and for people to say hello if they visit the site and stuff.

I still have to write alot of content for the site. Soon! :D

Jack, I work from 11-5 tomorrow, you can come get them from me before or after then.

It would be helpfull if you could bike aronud and hit up all the highschools in the area.

ARRRGGG!!!!!! I couldn't put up those SICK ~KICKASS~ posters at school because of my douchebag principal. "Apparently" we needed a signature or some shit like that on the posters before we can post it up so the janitors doesn't tear them off the walls. Here was the scene at the office:

Jack: Hello Mr. Switzer [the principal], I was wondering if I could put up these posters in our school?

Switzers: [Takes posters, walks away into some room for 10 seconds, comes out and walks over to some random old lady <---no joke] What do you think of these posters?

Random Old Whore: [Silence] It's not a school event, they cannot be posted

Switzers: Is that a clear enough answer for you? Have a nice day [proceeds to throw the posters at my face]

:evil: :evil: :evil: ARGGGGGGG!!!!!!!! FUCK!

Well, after that little incident I went to the basement, smoked 5 bowls, came back upstairs and passed out the posters to anyone who didn't have a KICKASS poster, until I ran out....


Thank you very much, have a very nice day.

:D :D :D I am so stoned 8) 8) 8)

Start a club!!!

Almost every member of my club found footbag through me, you can do the same!

You have to be brutally dilligent and expect that 98% of the people that you meet that seem keen will never come back.

The short list above is a tiny sliver of the people that have 'joined the club' only to never be seen again.

I have hope for the KFM!

So today I met up with Tom and Peng. They are the first other players that I've ever played with. They were awesome and Tom was soooooooo good. I saw him hit scorpions tail on bs for the first time. I never realized watching other people was so much fun. All the footbag talk I heard was awesome.

After, Peng showed me some stretches for my hips (which suck... my hips that is) and I learned to breathe deeply when stretching. They invited me to their place which is the coolest apartment in Kingston I bet... It was soooo awesome, and Tom told me many stories about their apartment. I had a blast. Peng made some cassarole and sauteed vegetables, and I ate over (something I did not expect, but am SOOOOO thankful for...) It was all soooo good (thanks for everything!!!). After we chilled for a while, and I left around 10:15ish. Then I met up with some chicks and went to a kegger.

Today is a day I will remember forever. I really need to call my friends from back at home and tell them all about it. It was better than I could have ever imagined. It will most definately go down in history... Thanks for everything Tom and Peng, I am so happy I am part of the KFM.

Yesterday I was able to play with again with Tom, this time he brought along Derrick. Derrick was reallllly good, he could hit a lot of big tricks. Playing with other people is really helping me, both of them have given me some good advice about certain components that should help my game. Tom told me I'm at the point in my footbag life where I'm about to hit puberty and be albe to put everything I've learned together to add a lot more variety to my game. I want to shuffle!!!

I think I shred better with other people to, not to mention I can play longer since it isn't string>drop>rpt.. It's string>pass>relax/wait for the bag again. I really think my string lengths are getting longer.

I tried climacools for the first time, but the clipper sweet spot just isn't as big as g-units, so I think I'm going to stick with them. I let Derrick play in my G-Units and now he wants a pair also, and Tom wants the camo-mesh ones. It's funny how quickly they both decided to get G-units after playing in them for only like 5 minutes.

Anyway, today I'm taking the day off to rest, and drink tonight and stuff. I cannot wait to play again...
