...go out and have some fun with my top.  I am having so much fun that I cannot seem to stop spinning.  I have now been going for 7 1/2 hours.  That is twice as long as I have ever gone before.  Too bad I don't have any witnesses.  Oh well, I can always top this record one year from today.

Tell me about some of your top spinning today!

I did a "360" in my office chair a moment ago.
Must now rest.

We took the church bus and took a SPIN around the tidal basin and Haines Point in Washington DC.  It is cherry blossom time!

Isn't today the anniversary of Steve Brown announcing that he had gone like 2.5 hours with a Watts top? Seems a great day to break records.

By the way, tonight I will appear in the local TV. I entered a silly talent contest and I am in the finals. I will try to eat 8 hot dogs in 1 minute while Figaro spins on my back. We will be on a stage in front of the Alamo. Wish me luck!

[Larry D.]

Now that sounds like Great Fun!  Best of luck ta0!

And you're doing this for fun ?!?

I just finished to design a new regen top. The groove has tooth and a small chain is necesary to play. A bit of oil is needed for a smooth play.

I just saw 4 or 5 new production tops come into existence almost simultaneously!

Wait, that's really happening!  Whoot.

[Watts' Tops]

This is the first that I heard Steve Brown spinning a Watts' Top for 2.5 hours.  Even a 4 inch, which is the smallest I make that would be some work out.  I get tired in about 3 minutes.  I must commend Steve.

the day is going slowly so i decided to...
Pinch myself to see if I was dreaming.  Days no longer go slowly fer me

i played the new YoYo Jam Top  all afternoon
it's called the " Pearl Jam "
i would put it in the category of stealth tops :
 it becomes barely visible when it's in my pocket

Congrats to all for this fun April Fools thread.  I think Mr. ta0 wins the prize with the best entry for his hot dog eating while spinning Figaro on his back.  Of course, anyone can eat eight hot dogs in a minute while leaning over and having a giant top digging in your back........but it was fun to imagine Mr. T doing it down in the hot Texas sun.
