Check out my son at his school's talent show a few days ago.

That's great!! He looked like he was having fun. A good performer.  My kids have one very similar and they call it a diabolo.

Yeah he had a lot of fun with it.  Adrian is just finishing 5th, but Fallon is a K-8 the past few years (next year it becomes a 6-8 Middle School only).  Anyway, after his performance one of the coolest 8th grade girls - star of the basketball team - came over and asked Adrian for a quick lesson.  It was pretty funny, because he wasn't so much embarrassed as completely clueless, but since I know the girl from having reffed 4 or 5 of her games I was able to smooth it out.  And at the end his classmates gave him lots of "Dude!  That was so cool how Juliana came up to you after!"

That's great.  I can juggle like a madman, and am a demon with a Duncan yo-yo.  But I've NEVER met a popular woman who was attracted by my mad skills.

But maybe I'm just clueless too. :-\

Very cool Kung Fu YoYoing!  Thanks for sharing.

Excellent Yo Fu!

Nice.  I forwarded to a couple of friends who are or were getting certified for sign.

this mashup is fun: I don't know if the editor did anything special other than just record them together, but the great visuals of the Indian movie and Spoon's wonderful song work here:

Watch two guys antics as they are stuck overnight in an empty airport, sorta like Harold & Kumar meets Home Alone:

Don't know how, but I never heard this Loretta Lynn/Conway Twitty song until about 5 minutes ago. But it's got one of the best C&W titles ever: You're the Reason Our Kids Are Ugly

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFq6eZBS1iM&feature=share

Guessing it's vintage 70s by the clothes on the album cover.
Let's get right to it.

wow, that made my day.  Loretta sounds so cute.  I like how she pronounced "wires" as "wars."

Interesting 3-min film clip ("home movie"?) of the Grateful Dead (you'll spot Jerry Garcia, Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann, Bob Weir, Phil Lesh) and the Rolling Stones (you'll see Mick Jagger, Charlie Watts, Mick Taylor) on Dec 6, 1969, on the SF waterfront near The Ferry Building waiting for a helicopter ride to the infamous Altamont concert in Livermore.  As you know, The Dead decided not to go after hearing of the unrest among the crowd at the site.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZizWlGjACY

wow, cool!  Seems like unused footage from the Maysles bros film crew they left out of Gimme Shelter.   If you could slow down the leader part in the beginning of the film you could read the date and dir name. 

ugh, look at the Embarcadero freeway!
