Yo!

Why did all these people bring yo-yos? This is a Smothers Brothers concert! Why? These new and renewed yo-yo enthusiasts have come to see their spiritual leader of Yo. Their leader, the Yo-Yo Man, embodies a phenomena that has captured the imagination and hearts of audiences everywhere. His appeal is direct and simple: pure unadulterated fun. Indeed, his whimsical touch has even been known to transform grandparents into children.

On stage, the Yo-Yo Man begins his tricks with a trademark dance-like step that signals he’s in a “State of Yo” and ready to proceed. With each successive trick, the spirits rise until the crowd can no longer contain itself and contagiously fills the air with shouts of “Yo!”

Remarkably, the Yo-Yo Man achieves all this without ever uttering a word. Dick (the Voice of Yo) authoritatively speaks for him as he explains, “When you’re fully Yo from head to toe, you’re online with the world.”

Through yo-ing, the Yo-Yo Man and his following know that enlightenment, or the blissful State of Yo, can be attained. Consequently, they ardently pursue their skill as one pursues a passion. Besides providing uplifting entertainment, there are other benefits derived from the world of Yo. Classes in yo-ing are available for students, provided as a means of constructively focusing the students’ energies into the positive goals of development and achievement of a skill, as well as the sheer enjoyment of it. Indeed, yo-ing has also been found to be an effective rehabilitation tool for those with motor disabilities. It provides a relatively simple, yet pleasurable means of overcoming various difficulties. Thus, the increased popularity of the yo-yo is not only that of a toy, but has additionally become an option for uses beyond entertainment.

Whether used for purpose or pleasure however, there is one thing on which all yo-ists and Yo-Yo Man fans concur. They share the delight of knowing that when in a state of Yo, life is enhanced. The sky is bluer, the air is cleaner and the world is a little bit rounder. Moreover, there’s nothing to analyze, memorize or scrutinize. Simply take heed of those immortal words…….. ………..“Just Say Yo”.

On December 22, 1944, through a party consisting of a major, captain, and two privates under a flag of truce that entered the American lines southeast of Bastogne (occupied by Company F, 2nd Battalion, 327th Glider Infantry), General Heinrich Freiherr von Lüttwitz sent the following ultimatum to Gen. McAuliffe:

To the U.S.A. Commander of the encircled town of Bastogne.

The fortune of war is changing. This time the U.S.A. forces in and near Bastogne have been encircled by strong German armored units. More German armored units have crossed the river Our near Ortheuville, have taken Marche and reached St. Hubert by passing through Hompre-Sibret-Tillet. Libramont is in German hands.

There is only one possibility to save the encircled U.S.A. troops from total annihilation: that is the honorable surrender of the encircled town. In order to think it over a term of two hours will be granted beginning with the presentation of this note.

If this proposal should be rejected one German Artillery Corps and six heavy A. A. Battalions are ready to annihilate the U.S.A. troops in and near Bastogne. The order for firing will be given immediately after this two hours term.

All the serious civilian losses caused by this artillery fire would not correspond with the well-known American humanity.

The German Commander.

According to various accounts from those present, when McAuliffe was told of the German demand for surrender he said "NUTS".
