Coolest thing about you:
One quote: "My other quote is a piece of wit."

how many can you juggle?

I'm assuming this is "at one time" and that a juggle means 2 cycles or indefinately?

balls: 5 indefinately, 6 two+ cycles, 7 one cycle.
Clubs: 4 indefinately, 5 two+ cycles, 6 one cycle.
Rings: 5 for 30-40+ catches, 6 around 10-11 catches, 7 one cycle.

Other talents:
I'm a video game addict, a would-be Bible scholar, and I'm into almost anything that is cool but not popular:

Most juggling related activities: Unicycling (I'm bad at it..), Ball spinning (pretty good, prop of choice #3), etc.

Snowboarding/Wakeboarding (too popular, but it is still awesome).
I play the concertina and Tin Whistle (not very well... not a talent, ask anyone who lives with me).

I can do a little of everything... a bit of a Jack of all traits and master of none. I grew up in a techie house, so I run linux 60% of the year, and am pretty computer savvy (for an English major). I'm into literature, philosophy, and political science, and love to talk for hours on end about all three. Pretty much anything I'm good at (juggling, etc.), I've had to work my butt off and spend way too much time on. Talent = 1% inspiration, 20% attention span, and 80% effort (yeah, I'm bad at math too).
