Internet memes
Performer Chriss Bliss has been gaining noteriety online for this juggling performance to the tune of the Beatles' "Golden Slumbers" and "Carry That Weight." But my friend alerts me to a "Bliss Diss" by technical juggler Jason Garfield. Garfield did the same routine, but with five balls instead of three.

I dunno... Garfield's act does seem to involve much harder _juggling_, but Bliss' seems to do a much better job of mixing juggling prowess with an interpretation of the music.

Bliss isnt trying to create any sort of internet sensation and I dont think he has done this bit as part of his act for some time. Garfield is also doing his bit in an empty room, while the tape shows he got the setup right this time, Bliss took his act on the road for live audiences.
That being said I never got the hang of jugling despite trying for quite some time... Kudos to them both.
