More on Saturday..

After one of our shows Saturday I heard my name called.. It was this familiar looking guy…I went through my college and old high school friends in my head, but couldn’t place him. Then he said “I’m your cousin.” Oops. Maris. Right. It has been maybe a year and a half since last I saw him, so not recognizing him was pretty embarrassing. He had heard I was juggling at Six Flags from his father.. We had a good time hanging out, he met the guys I juggle with and I met a couple of his friends. In a strange coincidence, he’s been taking wing tsun, a martial art I just started with this past summer. He is far, far, more accomplished in it than I.. He’s also working on a commercial for the very wing tsun instructor that I am supposed to contact here in Chicago. Strange strange…

The park filmed one of our shows on Saturday.. We have asked for copies.. In addition, we are mentioned in newspaper ads they’ve put out for Fright Fest. We are first in the list of acts they mention.. No pictures, unfortunately.
