I have been watching constantly, and the one event I so hoped to see has so far been absent.  I am of course talking about cat juggling.

The cats are still being used in the cat herding event, it's not going too well.

Cat juggling is one of the most difficult forms of juggling mainly because they are hard to get off your arm, head or whatever part of your anatomy they latch onto.

I thought Navin Johnson's crusade in the '80's did away with cat juggling. :shock::dude:

To make it real interesting, I'd like to see synchronized cat juggling.  Now that would be a event that a redneck would pay to watch.:cheeky1::cheeky1::cheeky1::cheeky1:

Hi Vasco,

How is it, someone who looks as young as you do can have a GL 1800?

Just curious and jealous.:clapper:   :leprechaun:

That picture was taken in 2003 when i was just 7. So i'm 12 now.

I quote the bit where you add the Information about what bike you own.

It says, as the title for that section, " What model(s) do you own/ride?". My Goldwing is a little model of a 1800 so it counts.:dude::cheeky1:

Alternately Dad's (GeordieMuppet's) wing is not his, It actually belongs to me and is on loan for the small price of £15 a month (pocket money (or allowance)).:2finger::dude::cheeky1:

Good for you, girl. Better keep a tight rein on the gordiemuppet 'til you get old enough to ride it yourself.;)

 

Naw, mikef. I'm not jealous of her money or her looks (her looks would look bad on me). I'm just jealous of her AGE. 'Course I died February 20 1996, so I guess I'm only 12 in my new life. That would explain why I can't drink booze anymore.:cheeky1:

Hey vasco, if I can dump the wife for the weekend.................Naw, it wouldn't work. The guys on this board would do nasty things to me.:cheeky1::cheeky1::cheeky1:

SEE? its quite obvious really, the most heavily populated country in the world is China and they are nearly all Chinese and eat Chinese food, cat (allegedly) tastes just like chicken and is a popular constituent of chinese food (well, it is around these parts).

Therefore, it stands to reason that the Olympic sport of cat juggling will have to be cancelled due to a dearth of cats because they all went on the menu.

Not so, with the moratorium on domestic oil drilling in the U.S. there are a lot of wildcatters out of work so they'd be available for the Olympics. Since the rest of the world doesn't have this moratorium their lack of available cats will automatically make the U.S. a world leader in cat juggling.

I just received and email from a friend regarding eating out in China after the Olympics, but the pics are too big to post here.
You would not believe some of the stuff they got to eat over there. *YUK*
