Yes.
Mrs Conclusion: Hello, Mrs Premise.

Mrs Premise: Hello, Mrs Conclusion.

Mrs Conclusion: Busy day?

Mrs Premise: Busy! I've just spent four hours burying the cat.

Mrs Conclusion: Four hours to bury a cat?

Mrs Premise: Yes! It wouldn't keep still, wriggling about howling its head
off.

Mrs Conclusion: Oh - it wasn't dead then?

Mrs Premise: Well, no, no, but it's not at all a well cat so as we were going away for a fortnight's holiday, I thought I'd better bury it just to be on the safe side.

Mrs Conclusion: Quite right. You don't want to come hack from Sorento to a dead cat. It'd be so anticlimactic. Yes, kill it now, that's what I say.

Mrs Premise: Yes.

AREA MAN DEEMED YO-YO POSER

Truckee, CA — Squaw Valley, home to everything hip and cool, is now the hub of the new-school yo-yo scene. And breaking into the local crowd here is tough for up-and-comers, to say the least.

“It’s a crock! That’s what it is,” claims six-month resident Josh Alberg (top 2 photos). “I smoke these guys. I can stomp the trick ‘Baby New Year’ (1st photo) all night long. These chumps walk the dog, and next thing you know it’s in all the magazines.”

One local, Brett Lawler (below), sees things a little differently. “That guy’s such a poser! He shows up at the bar almost every night, tears his shirt off and busts out the same lame trick that looks like he got all tangled up in his string. I never realized he was being serious.”

This rejection hasn’t slowed Alberg down. His recently launched website, www.yo2live.com is projecting some impressive numbers for the upcoming months. “They can’t avoid me for long. I got mad skills and that’s the bottom line,” he promises. “I’ll see those guys at the Spring Jam and then we’ll see who the loser is.”

yo-yo defense
"I do get it--I had thought of it before--but if you don't pick correctly, the cure could be as bad as the disease...

Not saying you're not picking correctly...just a thought."
