Way too fancy for someone playing the same instrument Arthur Godfrey made infamous -- I don't care if he can make it sound like the Halelluia Chorus. It's got 4 plastic strings and its name means "jumping flea".<BR/><BR/>I'll bet he spends 4 hours a day fixing his hair, and hour making sure he looks cool, and the rest of the day playing that one Harrison song over and over again -- sitting on a street corner with a tin can for tips. Oh, and an hour doing sit-ups so he looks like a girl.<BR/><BR/><BR/>GAHHHHH!FX Turkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16798420127955373559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1143646406365593592006-03-29T07:33:00.000-08:002006-03-29T07:33:00.000-08:00I'm sorry but you missed out on the real talent!!!...I'm sorry but you missed out on the real <A HREF="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8602472107022912201" REL="nofollow">talent</A>!!!!<BR/><BR/>Believe me you have to see it to believe it and then you still might not.Juicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14484513756313595640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1143594934151623222006-03-28T17:15:00.000-08:002006-03-28T17:15:00.000-08:00Frank Turk is wise beyond his years... or somethin...Frank Turk is wise beyond his years... or something like that. <BR/><BR/>As talented as the uke player clearly is, something about him bothered me and I couldn't figure out what it was until Frank spoke up.

I have seen more stunning juggling feats.<BR/><BR/>I cannot vote for the Uke player because I think he should have spent more time on the guitar.<BR/><BR/>I can't vote for the manualist because I think he made those noises with his mouth.<BR/><BR/>I can't vote for the foosball thing because I fear that encouraging that sort of move will doom me in future foosball games. Besides, Frank said it was rigged.<BR/><BR/>So, by default, I'll go with the Frenchman with the bicycle horns. Besides, I'm nearly convinced he is actually an American masquerading as a Frenchman. For one, French guys aren't that funny on purpose. Secondly, he had a funny French accent. Finally, he said 'popcorn' too well to be truly French.Brad Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00197301845256854051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1143493696535535892006-03-27T13:08:00.000-08:002006-03-27T13:08:00.000-08:00Coyote:"faked" implies that the foosball did not, ...Coyote:<BR/><BR/>"faked" implies that the foosball did not, without some kind of device, actually go into the goal. It went in the goal. I want to know how many takes it took.<BR/><BR/>Saying it was "staged" implies that the video was allowed to run until the ball was successfully pocketed. It takes a certain amount of dexterity to pick that ball up and move it to the center like that -- but the hole-in-one?
