I don't know. 3 is really easy. Start with two in your right hand if you're right hand dominant and toss the outside one up into the air, when this one is half way up, toss the one in your left hand in a similar arch but towards your right hand. You can practice just that exchange til you get the hang of it, once you get it down, you will always have at least one ball in the air. I hear that if you can get 4 down, then you can get infinite numbers...

The encyclopedias are so out of date now...

Yeah they are but they are a reputable source that you can cite in college papers still.

who writes papers in college??

I'll have to try again to juggle sometime. not sure if I can find three tenis balls again though.

It's OK if they're talking about historical stuff.

But try reading something about computers in them sometime...lol...

I have to write papers in college. My classes are LAAAAAME. One keeps wanting us to write about how to talk to people online without offending people. And the other, critical thinking, the book talks in circles and it's so vague and ambiguous. Ambiguous is like, my favorite word now^^

Ambiguous is an ambiguous word...

its pretty easy not to offend people online...what a lame class.

Yes, well it's about something in an information age... it's so lame. The people in the class are so lame. I read their bios and I wonder what they have done with their lives, and then I keep reading and find that they haven't done anything. And that makes them more lame. But then again, I am a very angry person these days and most people seem lame to me, except for my friends. They fall under the umbrella of non-lame-ness.

Actually, it's too easy to offend people.

It's a problem with the written word.
YOU know what you're trying to say, but without the visual or verbal clues, the person reading what you have written may take it a completely different way.

generally, if they're friends you should know. I know when people online are being sarcastic or mean, or trolling for laughs and what not.

People need thicker skin.

The problem really lies in the fact that I don't care that much. I mean, I place myself on a pedistal... pedistle... no no... pedistil... whatever.. and it seems that most people can't measure up to the standards that I think they should. And this makes me angry when people are lazy. Considereing all of last year.... It makes me sick to my stomach how people can come and complain about a stubbed toe while there are people who are.... nevermind. Lost cause ^^

In business, it's good to know how to write to keep from offending people.
When you write then, it's not to friends, and they don't know you.

Sorry, Zeph and Kat.

I guess I'm from a different generation.
My employer, IBM, was a real stickler for how we dealt with customers...

It could make or break a deal to come across as offensive.

Dealing with customers is different. It's a different view point. I have to be nice to the patients that come in my clinic now, and treat them with dignity and respect, no matter how stupid I think they are.

lol, Zeph....

I've never had to deal with that kind of stuff. I just ignore stupid people.

I wish I could.

Haha, i lost a lot of things besides close friends last year ^^ Respect for stupid people, patience and a lot of happiness it seems. Oh well... maybe something will fix that. My husband tells me that I'm angry. I was surprised. I said, "I'm not angry all the time though." And he replies with, "Well, since I've known you..." And that's when I realized that I have anger issues ^^

At least he still fancies you though, right?

I know a few people that have anger issues in my family. They push away people, even their friends with how they are. Sadly

Yes of course. He does everything he can to make me happier XD He completely cleaned the house today. Bathroom, kitchen, swept the whole house, did the dishes, folded laundry and started another load, took care of all the Christmas decorations and had lunch when I came in ^^ haha... he's the best. So I really try not to get angry... I do try...

Anger is a lot of stress on your body.
You need to learn to let that go...

I'd rather not. Sometimes I don't know how or why I'm angry. Other times, I'd rather be angry because if not then I'd just be sad. Too many memories. Too many people.

maybe you should start taking meditation classes and the like.

I used to meditate to get to sleep. To clear my mind. Other than that... the anger goes with the job I think...

I've never tried to meditate.
