You are amazing, Jim!!!!  8) 8) 8) 8) 8) Thanks a lot for continuing providing these challenges, even if it is mostly between you and me ::)

Didn't you tell me that Salvador became very interested in hat juggling when you took him to a juggle meet? Is this a tricky contest and Huitzi already has a killer "hat trick"?  ???

Anyway, I have many hats and a shaved head, so I should be able to come up with something  :P
Of course, I will probably miss the deadline . . .

I think I have an idea for this.  Hopefully this time I won't be late  ::)

Here is the hat trick with which Matt Ritter finished his routine at worlds 2007. He won and that was his last trick ever in competition. Something like making the last second winning shot at the NBA finals and retiring afterwards (Matt was for the US top players the equivalent to Michael Jordan).  He came up with the trick while playing at the hotel and added at the last minute to the routine (or so he said).  The music is not from the routine: I took the clip from the 3rd collective video.

Friendly reminder, Tuesday is the deadline for this contest.

I have gathered the props (including, you guessed it, a hat!) for mine. Now I just need to film it.

Thanks! It was fun to make.

I got that rabbit from a magic store in 2006 for use in the public show at the Texas Jugglefest.  On the show I took it out of . . . Figaro! After spinning inside, no wonder the bunny was angry!  >:D

After scrtaching my head for a while I figured the first sentence says:  "Nope. I have not prepared anything with hats and tops."
But the next question is just gibberish to me.  ???
