    Can you Juggle?

    I failed juggling when I went to Clown College 20 years ago. Now my 7 and 4 1/2 year olds constantly want me to juggle. So now I have to learn how to juggle again. Maybe now as I near 50 I can get the hang of it.

    Anyone hear juggle?

    I have for about 29 years. You should get the juggling for the complete klutz set if they still make it, or round or square shaped bean type bags. Start with two in the toss up manner and then when you get used to that motion add the third and practice in front of a wall. The bag style is so you don't have to chase them, same reasoning with the wall, it keeps them in front of you. Two to three days and you'll have it.

        I can't remember when I started. I tried to learn with batons about 10 years ago, but didn't want to pay for the plastic batons I was using at work. So I've stuck with just the three balls.

          Yes I can. I can also spin a bow staff around my body like a ninja. Balance anything on the tip of my finger. Walk on a ball like a circus bear. And do a backflip.

          Ladies love this stuff. Don't ask me why.

            Thanks for the tips. Well most of them anyway!

              Yes. 2 or 3 but no more. You have to simply stick to it, and all of a sudden it's easy. Stay away from the bowling pins and chainsaws until you really get the hang of it.

                Learned to juggle in the 9th grade for a French class program at school. It was pretty messy because I taught myself using oranges.

                    As a trained monkey, I am expected to juggle many balls at work.

                          I hated clown college. The commute was brutal. We carpooled and getting into that tiny car with the other 11 clowns was horrendous.

                              Tried it a few times, but I failed miserably, so I finally gave up
