Monday October 27, 2008 It's A Small World
|
Last night we went over to Duncan's school in the evening as usual, so
Dusti could party with all the other dogs. As we parked in the car park
at the front of the school, we noticed Jody and Brent, (the owners of
Muffin, one of the dog regulars), playing |
Now from talking with the other dog owners, I knew that they both were at world championship level, and from watching them for a couple of minutes you could easily see why. I didn't realize just how good they were. Here are the awesome stats for Jody and Brent.
I then went looking for videos. YouTube hadn't been invented when they were winning championships and setting world records, so nothing of them, but I did come across a couple videos that would give you some idea of what footbag at the world championship level is all about:
- Footbag World Championship 2006 Double Net Finals.
Net footbag is like Volleyball, but with the feet.
- Scott Kirchner Finals Routine Nationals 2007
The kind of thing Jody and Brent were doing with a single footbag in the car park.
If that's not enough, then Brent is also the author of a well known Tcl/Tk book. Tcl/Tk was my graphical scripting language of choice until I discovered Python/Pygtk.
It's a Small World.

Cool. I was a big fan of Tcl/Tk as well, and remember fondly Brent's book.
