You must of got them from the last juggler that left town, for gas money!It would be cool to see you crate slug on a unicycle!

That juggler probably left to move onto a better gig...

I suppose it would but you know I don't use a crate in my gig. Now if we could get Cleo to ride one THAT would be interesting! As far as the better gig thing I have found that Key West is rather good as a pitch and I do really well here. Seeing as though so many of you are jugglers and can't find ways to be unique you could be right.

Key West is the retirement home for street performers. When I'm old and ready to die I'll go to Key West.
See what you started Steven and Jeep? FLAME ON!

(and yeah, I read the subject title. ...It's right up there with, "stupid say what?")

Screw it. I'll sell them on ebay. They are more mature and less apt to insult each other. What a professiuonal enviroment we have here. This 'Crate Slug' makes probably as much as or more than some of you working a couple hours a day. I'll refrain from furhter posts and give you all a loud "BOOOOOOO!"

silverman didn't you start out as a gutter punk in New Orleans. I'm for sure I saw you there. Lighten up!
Silverman
06-16-08, 12:21 PM
As a matter of fact we were, at one point. We ran ramshod on the whole quarter for a while. I have a sense of humor as you well know. Too bad others can't be as professional. I don't insult other performers because I feel it creates an enviroment of anymosity that only gets people mad and hurt. It's to bad I'm not a (jeez another one) juggler. I'd use the unicycles. I got them for nearer nothing and just want rid of them now. I may make a point of having you watch me throw them in the water here soon. They are worthless.
Good god I may have to start working on a milk crate (god forbid) just so I live up to the stereotypical ideal you all have regarding silver mimes.
I guess I'll never be as accepted as that drunk asshole, illegal immigrant, Joseph. Oh well. Maybe I should go where that Peters broad lives and work next to her. How the hell does a Canadian animation oriented individual qualify as a street performer anyhow? She wouldn't survive a month down here at Mallory.
Isabella
06-16-08, 02:38 PM
Yeah, she probably wouldn't survive at Mallory, since it appears they don't have irony there and that's what Rachel eats for breakfast...
Rachel Peters

I was poking fun at Evan Young and Evan Young alone, because he seemed to want to start somethin'. I played.
See, he called people in Key West "old" so I called him an unborn baby, which is even younger than a baby. That's all. S'all cool, s'all cool.
I am definitely not irony deficient.
So why only pick on the "broad"?
(Rhetorical question)
Silverman
06-16-08, 03:40 PM
Well considering the people call me metal man around here you could say I've had my fill of irony. I just want to sell a couple unicycles that someone wanted rid of. If ya'll wanna poke fun at or make less of our pitch why don't you come down and compete on Duval St. where I am THE money maker. Unless of course you can't compete. Then ya'll may as well keep your mouth shut and let me sell some unicycles whilst ya'll plod along in your own dumping ground of a pitch. Fair enough?
All's well that ends. Right?

The only thing more unprofessional than cracking a joke is crying about one. I don't see a single insult on this page, just a bunch of light hearted teasing.
This is a forum filled with comedian performers, who, as a matter of practice, will tease and insult each-other with affection on a regular basis.
go ahead and give selling the unicycles on ebay a shot, it doesn't look like anyone here needs them at the moment. Thank you for posting, it is appreciated.
Silverman
06-16-08, 08:42 PM
Ya'll started it and called me a crybaby. Wow. Anything for the last word huh? They're no longer for sale by the way.
Rachel Peters
06-16-08, 08:54 PM
By the way, did you just say that Canadians and people with day jobs don't "qualify" as street performers?
Just curious.

my last word was "thank you". I was sincerely trying to assure you that nobody was trying to insult you in a malicious manner. Please relax, I'm sorry your feelings got hurt. Good to hear the unicycles issue has been resolved, I hope they have a good home.
Rachel, I said "comedy performers", not "street performers". Maybe you need new glasses on that mop you call a head.
As far as i can see, the only person who insulted silverman was jeep, by calling him a crate slug.
He also did his regular best to have a go at jugglers. Which is getting really old and boring.
Maybe it's a reflection of something.

Silverman,
I think you're reading too much meaning behind the words on the screen...
Everyone here appreciates your unicycle offer, and if I were in the area, would probably take the off of your hands. If they are in good shape, your price is quite reasonable.
Sorry if you feel slighted by the thread - I don't think that it was intentional.
My reply was directed at Jeep's continual, and unwelcome, juggler bashing. He seems to be afflicted by a strange variant of coulrophobia (fear of clowns). Extensive counseling is probably in order...

nope!
Not you. Silverman. I'd be interested to hear more on Canadians and the multifaceted. ...maybe even "broads".

maybe a good living statue for Mallory Square would be you in silver on top of the unicycle with juggling pins suspended in the air. An "ode to old jugglers" kinda thing since there are so many down there.
Rachel Peters
06-17-08, 01:57 PM
Don't you try to cut the tension with kind light heartedness, Beaumanz. I am determined to have my chance at twisting some words, dangit!

So the US Dollar dips to be almost as worthless as the Canadian Dollar, and suddenly the weird little animation broad gets feisty.
The Bush administration's economic policy has emboldened the enemy, what a dick.

Nah, that's not it. I spent 8 days with Ewen and Butterfly.

Your right Dallas,I'd be embarrassed if I where a juggler that did 3 flaming clubs next to a juggler doing 3 flaming clubs next to a juggler doing 3 flaming clubs saying" watch me I'm better" for a fanalie. But a 29 year old Canadian broad in silver juggling might be a real treat. God knows we could use some new broads in K. w., and I sure don't want to loose my turn, as one only just gets a turn here. And your right Gav my comments to Silverman was only meant to be hummer, that is light hearted teasing,as I've probably known Him longer than anyone that writes on this blog, and we've been friends for a long time. Now it's time to ask Butterfly Man,are create slugs a lesser form of street performers? Steven I stated out as a white face clown in New Orleans doing a comedy magic routine ,not balloons, at the '84 worlds fair. I suppose I scared a few people then as well as now. Scary ain't it! Any way come on down the weather is fine and there is plenty of women and whiskey to go around. toodleloo

A wave of confusion passes over the crowd as the senile old man adresses comments not made, questions not asked, and a personal history that might be interesting if it were only told in a cohesive manner.
Then he invites everyone into the haunted amusement park for lemonade.

My dear fellow performers,
If I thought beating a dead horse would give me a sizeable enough living down here at this, ahem, piss poor pitch, I'd pick up a stick and join all you who want to bruise the dead flesh of a long gone stallion. Lucky for me I would have a hard time finding a dead one to beat around here without the cops doing one in(they ride around on them down here during special events). Well, ya'll don't have a problem with beating the one you found as far as I can see so let's resolve all the issues and be done.
I want you all to know first, and foremost, that the two unicycles were sold within two days after I placed the ad and you all went bat dung in here. ( No profanity!) I mean lterally the day after you all went bat S#$T a likeable english chap named Guy bought the tall one, and the following day his friend bought the other one. He was local by the way, and it was word of mouth that got them sold.
In 2003 I got tired of working for THE MAN due to the lack of signifigant financial reward and became a Gold/Silver individual for so many hours a day. About four to five hours an evening in Tempe, Arizona. By the way they call that area Valejo de Diablo, and Valejo de Sol. That doesn't mean valley of soft pussies, or valley of roll over and be the girl. Just so you know. If you don't know the mexicano translation you're on your own. Smile, wink, wink, nod, es muy bueno, etc.
I worked on a milk crate a total of I think maybe two times since then. Once was when I came back to Key West from seeing my family for the first time in 13 years this last April. The other was the first time I ever did my mime act as a silver person while in Tempe, Arizona on Mill Ave. Just so you know that is where I began five years ago. I work behind an expensive, silver, and emblazoned bicycle nowadays while standing on even ground. The 'crate' holds my backpack, and keeps the front wheel from moving during the act.
Rachel, I meant you no harm. However, your website lists you as an animator. While I have a ton of respect for animators (the key aspect of this word is animae and it has always been a facination of ours from childhood until now) I think you probably don't have an understanding of the street essence of performing in the raw, rough, and routine for enough to FEED yourself when you're done. Life is tough, and I am far tougher than you. Don't wager! My mothers maiden name was Gamble and I will win! You have my apologies for any ruffled feathers you may have had from our comments. However, you have probably never eaten from a garbage can because you had no work. As far as the word "broad" goes I am a tattoo bearing, Harley Davidson loving, forlorn, lone wolf of sorts, and it's just a word I use for women here and there. Maybe if you come to Key West I'll show you the tattoo between my eyes. The wiccan people love it.
Evan my friend it's all good. That lemonade goes down well, and I have more lemons where they all came from. Tomorrow the Silverman theme is "Come get your lemony dose of silver fun", and in your name of course. No one here is crying. Just so you know I can take a joke as long as it's a joke, and not an insult towards the place where I earn a DAMN good living.
Jeep is one of the BEST friends I have down here among the performers at Mallory Square in Key West, and he knows I can take a elbow to the ribs like no other performer down here. He can throw fireballs at me and I'll just laugh, and roll with it all. After all, I have a stretch frame bicycle with two foot handle bars that rolls in and out every evening with the act self contained just like his (sans the doggy!). By the way, I got the three hundred dollar Simple bike in my current act for twelve bucks from a guitar player that works at Mallory as well. Also, so you know, once I begin doing my silver thing I DON'T speak.
Rachel, your "hotspot3" link doesn't work. Give us proof you are a real animator or go fish for Canadian trouser trout. If you want to see me in action you can go to www.southernmostsilverman.com and see some proof and pudding that will show up at at the end of a link. Try the youtube link and see the goofy video I made. Then send me a link to something you've done that works so I can appreciate who and what you are. That's said with the utmost sincerity and no insults were intended.
We are worlds apart people, and all the while looking one another in the eye. Geddy Lee said it best. We are each another's audience outside the gilded cage.
One lone performer, performing for art's sake,
Southernmost Silverman

Seems like he's simply dealing with a mild form of inferiority complex to me.
But what do I know compared to all his words of wisdom ?
I wish I had an expensive ( $12 ) bike .

I have a real nice bike that I paid $5.00 for,, . that really did get stolen yesterday by a disgruntled crack whore. One of my boys got it back for me,and It only cost me a joint and a couple of beers! Toodleloo
