I'm thinking about getting a yo-yo.

[ampm]

I could see that.

[abcdefz]

That's a pretty big decision.

[synch]

I say you should go for it man.

(or woman)

[abcdefz]

Get a Yo Yo Ma. (y)

[Jmoney77]

Yo-Yo's are cool if you know haow to use 'em. But if you dont then practice makes perfect as they say.

[yeahwho]

I have 3 yo-yo's, it is a big investment. They have their up and down days, I'm not going to try and string you along. :o

You may want to first weigh out the pros and cons here.

[ericlee]

you can get it cause you can't play with MY (http://www.newint.org/issue243/Images/ice.jpg) Yo-Yo. Fool!

[alexandra]

i vote yes.

[ms.peachy]

I like yo-yo's. I used te quite handy with them when I was a lass.

[Rancid_Beasties]

I have one of those brain yoyos. They take the fun out of yo-yoing with the automatic return and all that. Fireballs were much better.

[mickill]

Now now, let's not urge ampm to make any rash decisions here, people. Obviously, some of us are a bit biased. We want to hear from both sides, though; some of the less than pleasant experiences a few of us may have had with yo-yos in the past, perhaps. We're all well aware that there can be an ugly side to this pastime, as well. I've heard some truly horrific stories, myself.

Thank you for your gracious responses. I'm putting a team together as we speak to show me the pros and cons of this purchase. These presentations will include graphs, charts and the like. Power point will definitely be involved.
