    ...sent this to tote and rick but rick couldn't open it so since I'm bored with watching the Yanx kicking the shit out of the Jays, I'll post it here;


    ...I thought I was good with a yoyo when i was a kid but this 6 year old is just sick;

    Hot Damn.....!!!

    This kid reminds me of a 7 year old boy I met 40 years ago, (a Japanese Immigrant, who could barely speak or understand English). The boy intensely watched me fumble with a f'n Rubik's Cube for 30 minutes to no avail. On the verge of throwing the damn cube, he sensed my frustration, while my brother, (then the same age), told me, let his little buddy try it......so I handed the boy the cube, and watched him complete it in less than 5 minutes. I wasn't timing him, yet I'd say it was probably less than 5 minutes.......

    As fast as his hands could move, the cube was completed in the blink of my eyes....

    On top of that, the boy had NEVER even tried a Rubik's cube, so said his Dad....

    stunning.... the yo yo boy....!!! I can't recall how many times those things hit me in the balls or b/t the eyes....!! Loved walking the dog tho'...!

    Ha....I had a high school summer intern in my lab at Salk. His nickname was cube...he'd solve a 3x3 in 15 seconds. The 4x4 cube in under 2 minutes. He had other skills like finishing HS in 3 years only to 4.0 CalTech in 3 years and walk into MD-PhD program before his 20th birthday.
