They sometimes don't like to be on camera :3 esp if they see each other. They flip out and will just launch off of my shoulder to get at each other if I'm not careful.

First time I watch. So funny man! This guy seems Jack Sparrow talking or something similar... Better than the news. Cool! :laugh:

I'll agree he has some learning to do, but you should have seen him when he started. He gets better every time IMO.
