Popular Post UglyBob Posted August 7, 2017 Popular Post Share #1 Posted August 7, 2017 In the past, I've mentioned that in a former life, I was a juggler. Everyone who juggles has to have a hook; something no one else does. My thing was shot-puts and bowling balls. Every once in a while, when I was feeling particularly dangerous, I’d borrow a set of 21 inch knives from one of the other guys in the group and toss them around. This gained me a reputation as someone you didn’t want to be standing anywhere near at practice. Friday, I was perusing one of my favorite thrift stores while waiting for my wife to finish with her pedicure appointment. Something shiny locked up in a glass case caught my eye. When I bent down to take a closer look, my heart skipped a beat; it was a beautiful set of stainless steel Brian Dubé juggling knives! I’m sure I was salivating when the attendant opened the case and handed them to me. When she told me the price, I almost passed out – Twenty bucks! Can you believe that? Twenty dollars for a new, never even been dropped, set of knives that sell for $150! Needless to say, and much to my wife’s chagrin, I bought them. It’s only been twenty-five years (see the attached picture) since I juggled with knives, but it’s just like riding a bike, right? Honey, keep the dogs in the house for a while . . . 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Far ★ Posted August 7, 2017 Share #3 Posted August 7, 2017 What could possibly go wrong? Oops! There goes the other one. I bought a book & soft cubes. Took me a long time to juggle 3, never could get 4 going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got set just like those (worth $239.99) for only $19.99 from Ginsu from one of those TV commercials And a second set free for just shipping and handling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
