Look, it's Thad!
And he's doing stuff...
Some people think that stuff is cool.
Doing a flip - I once did a full front flip in the middle of my creative writing class...and people liked it. So I guess that means doing a flip is a good thing to do. I've hurt my ankle on some of the landings, though. That always sucks. I suppose that's better than falling on my back...like I used to. Now, I almost always land on my feet. For some reason, I don't do backflips...only the forward kind.
I did 3 different flips to get these pictures. I was tired that day. I ate big shit on every try.

Starting off with a good high jump, but not flipping quickly enough while in the air.

This is what happens when you don't flip yourself enough...a very painful landing.

Me getting up, with a sore neck and a bad headache.
Juggling - I got bored and taught myself how to juuggle. In only one weekend, I was able to do the basic three ball pattern. About a month later, I could throw under my leg and behind my back. Next, I practiced clubs until I got that down pretty well. Now I can do knives and torches and other dangerous objects. You know, this is one of those useless talents that more people should learn...actually, I take that back, because if no one cares about my juggling skills now, imagine how much less they'd care if more people were able to do it.
Age 17: I'm juggling 2 golf balls. Wow...impressive.

Age 20: I got a little better.


Age 25: Now we're getting somewhere!

Blowing Fire - Anyone can do this, as long as they're stupid enough to try. All you have to do is suck the gas out of a lighter, blow it out on a small flame, then the small flame becomes a bigger flame.
Stapling Myself - Once again, anyone can do this, as long as they're stupid enough. I only staple my arm, though. One time, I thought someone would give me a lot of money to staple my arm, but they only gave me 8 cents.

I'm pulling a staple out of my arm. Unfortunately, there's not much blood.
