Speaking Of The Olympics...

Do you know what a "diabolo" is?  I think I had seen a picture of one once but didn't know what it was for.  Well for those of you like me, here's a brief description and a picture and a video. A diabolo is a juggling prop consisting of a spool which is whirled and tossed on a string tied to two sticks held one in each hand.  Diabolos come in different shapes and materials and they evolved from the Chinese yo-yo.  Below is a picture and below that is a video of a very talented diabolo trickster.  If the Olympics had a diabolo event, I'm quite sure the young man would win the gold medal.
