Meh. Still kickin'.

I just tried slacklining for the first time yesterday. It was exciting, cool, & slightly painful.

It's basically like whooping yourself with a belt if you bail the wrong way.

Also.. core strength.

But yeah, World Juggling Day was this past Saturday.

Got drunk on tasty beer and played with glowing juggling equipment.

Pretty awesome weekend I guess.

Hope yer feelin' well too!

Hey dude! Just felt like checkin' in How's life treating you?

Can it be a police state if they are wearing shorts?

Did I ever say that they would "successfully sue the city?" No. I did point out that lawsuits happen all the time. My mother was sued like 14 times, in different states, and the woman suing was broke. Suffice to say that drained my mom and she could do nothing about it until she payed a hell of a lot of money for a powerhouse lawyer (Which fucked her further.)
Just because the suits fail doesn't mean they don't do damage Yogi--and that was my point. So intellectual dishonesty my ass.

Sad part is--the city would be sued if someone fell off. Not a matter of if, but a matter of when
But to the actual content, why, oh why, do people feel the need to keep talking when they obviously don't know what they are talking about.

WHY!? I don't understand how you can possibly sue the city for something YOU Fucking did! It's like like they shoddily put up two trees that fell on your dumb ass. Either America is more litigious than I think, or the law doesn't work the way you think.

Yes, America is more litigious than you think. Because the law does work the way I think. Take a few cases...
Um, the woman spills HOT coffee on vag, sues McDonald's and wins. Yes, the coffee was hot even for coffee, but that's not the point.
Oh, and the doctor/rapist who sued because the hospital did not protect him or the victim from his attack? Yeah, that was a worthwhile lawsuit. Ultimately the case was thrown out, but I wonder who has to pay (Hint, if he is broke, the hospital. And the taxpayers.)
Lastly, in Michigan, a man got into a fender-bender. He claimed he turned gay because of it, won 200K, then his ex-wife sued, and won 25K...
A man became fat on McDonald's. Since he was manager, he sued because he "had" to sample the menu to ensure freshness. This wasn't in America, but guess what? He won.

I'm sorry but these stories are bullshit unless you compare them to the bullshit lawsuits that got thrown out because of how stupid they are. Coming up with a bunch of stories where stupid lawsuits succeeded is like using Casey Anthony as an example that anyone can get away with murdering their child. It's just not intellectually honest.



14 Times...Your mom deserved it...kill yourself mother fucker.

Excerpt -- email from spokesperson for the parks:

"Slacklining is not prohibited by the Park Code or by any park rule. We see slacklining as an emerging form of recreation that we should accommodate, so Parks is putting together some guidelines for slackliners that will address the issues people have raised, including that of possible damage to park trees. I have emailed Adam Burtle, who has suggested some sensible guidelines for slackliners, and invited him to sit down with us to draft them."
