“Upsy dazie”

“Yeah...and now if I could just go back to sleepsy dazie.”

“Lifts again, like a bra.”

“hey no fair I was gonna bring it to the top this time Dunadun cheated everyone!”

“Boing”

“Welcome back.”

“Wow, it's like a virus or something. Infecting every thread.”

“Where can we go to be safe????”

“Nowhere. Haiku is
Omnipresent. Take off
your shoes and relax.”

“Haiku could beat Spock
Infecting every thread, now
Hey, it's an idea....”

“This yo-yo thing is getting rediculous. I forbid anyone from posting on it ever again.

This means YOU!

Hey! I see your grubby little hands on your keyboard!”

Everyone have a beauty of a day!
sorry dunadan..... the shakti has overcome me this morning.”

“A little too heavy on the kundalini, huh Om? Enjoy the ride!”

“I like cheese.”

“Get back to work. You have school tomorrow!”

“Is it time for a beer yet?”

“Oh it's time baby, it's time!”

“Back up to the top for you.”

“Boing!”

“whoa, almost lost this puppy...”

“I'm baa-ack.”

“Whoa! Almost lost the momentum on this.”

“Up, up, up my friend!”

“Backpacker gives you hte practical "hands-on"trips and advice you need to enjoy the outfoors more tehn you ever dreamed possible. Each issue brings you field tested advise on: where to hike, when to go, what to take with you and much more, including the annual gear guide issue.”

“I confess! I'm a slime! I feel so terrible. I don't know what made me do it. Please, kind sir, assist me to wash my hands of this evil deed which I have done, permit me to come clean...”

“How many way's are there to detect a torll who substitutes and "I" for an "l"? I notice that if you click on a user name to see the profile... like the "violin" under "up, up, and away" all the user names for that "violin" are altered slightly in color (because the link has been used), but the "violin" below it is not altered in color. The alteration makes the lettering just a little pale.

Do any net detectives have better techniques?”

“Drag across it to select...copy and paste to notepad. It will become obvious there.

Actually...I completely missed that there was a torll on this thread. My confession should not be misconstrued as being this particular fraud; it was not I.”

“Oh Yeah and "view source" does the trick as well.”

“Why did the yo-yo cross the street?

Cause Spocks paperboy threw it to the wrong house.”

“The string on this thing is getting longer, I had to change my date range just to find it.”

“Booooooooooiinnnnnnnnngggggggggggg”

“I've always wanted to be the one to send it to the top. I feel so special! Four hours and 25 minutes and I'm FREEEEE for twelve days!”

“The yo-yo has enjoyed many periods of popularity throughout world history and may the second oldest toy in the world (after dolls). There are ancient Greek yo-yos made of terra cotta in museums in Athens and yo-yos are pictured on the walls of Egyptian temples.”

“as weapon & then u have clackers as well :)”

“"Boredom comes from too much T.V., uncreativity & no imagination."”

“Booooooooiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnggggg.”

“.”

“Ok....”

“bandalore-bandalore”

“The yoyo is a toy that doesn't need batteries. I think my kids each should get one next Christmas.”

“It pops up every night usually while I'm sleeping. When I wake up it's up. Then it goes down during the day.

Then this thread pops up again the following night. Make sense?”

“hehehe i can yo-yo with no hands!! BOING!!!”

“The modern story of the yo-yo starts with a young gentleman from the Philippines named Pedro Flores. In the 1920s, he moved to the USA, and worked as a bellhop at a Santa Monica hotel. Carving and playing with wooden yo-yos was a traditional pastime in the Philippines, but Pedro found that his lunch break yo-yo playing drew a crowd at the hotel. He started a company to make the toys, calling it the Flores Yo-Yo Company. This was the first appearance of the name "yo-yo," which means "come-come" in the native Filipino language of Tagalog.

Donald F. Duncan, an entrepreneur who had already introduced the Eskimo Pie, Good Humor Ice Cream, was co-patent holder of a four-wheel hydraulic automobile brake, and would later popularize the parking meter, first encountered the yo-yo during a business trip to California. A year later, in 1929, he returned and bought the company from Flores, acquiring not only a unique toy, but also the magic name "yo-yo." About this time, Duncan introduced the looped slip-string, which allows the yo-yo to sleep - a necessity for advanced tricks.”
