They really want him to come I guess; it doesn't seem like a publicity
stunt. If it was they wouldn't need to go this far. Pretty interesting...

Nothing says professional like a hotmail address.
Well, his website has a rather more professional proforma for making
business contact: see http://www.anthonygatto.com/main.html Not that I see
a hotmail address as a major problem for most people. Microsoft is a fairly
well respected company, and Hotmail certainly has worked fine for me over
the years. Not too many bells and whistles of course, but I don't need them.
It was however an odd, straw clutching way to suggest, if indeed that was
your intent, that hotmail usage implies a lack of professionalism from
Gatto.
But an interesting reply from A.G. He has no need at all to compete of
course, as the general opinion of all ( with the possible exception of
Garfield , who also probably confuses white with black at noon on a
midsummer's day ), is that Gatto reigns supreme as THE technical juggler,
which appears to be what the WJF is about defining. For Gatto to compete
would be a bit like a pro basketball player taking a game against
kindergarten kids seriously. Gatto has nothing to prove, but his addition
as the headline act in the WJF would add a lot to the event.
The WJF as an event is fine, but to even suggest it to be some form of
"world championship" , is never going to work. Garfield's approach to
organising the event, and the misuse of his ego, has been such that Gatto is
never, in my opinion, going to compete, and I don't blame him at all.
There would be ONE major advantage if Gatto should enter: it would at long
last give Garfield something that he would finally have to shut up about.
One of the all time best pokes in the eye with the proverbial sharp sticks.
Run it as an open juggling competition Jason, drop the "World" from the
title, and let the event sit at its own level. Don't over elevate its
importance.
Now, does anyone know where I can get one of those rather nice WTF ( yes WTF
! ) T-shirts that I have seen in the UK recently?
