NATIONAL YO-YO DAY
Jim had just turned 21, and wanted to buy a horse for himself.
Jim strode into a stable, looking to buy a horse. “Listen here” said the owner, “I’ve got just the horse you’re looking for, the only thing is, he was trained by an interesting fellow. He doesn’t go and stop the usual way. The way to get him to stop is to say “heyhey”, and the way to get him to go is to say “thank God”.
Jim nodded his head, “Fine by me, can I take him for a test run?”, to which the owner agreed.
Jim was having the time of his life. “This horse sure can run” he thought to himself. Jim was speeding down the dirt road when he suddenly saw a cliff up ahead. “Stop!” cried Jim, but the horse kept on going. No matter how much he tried he could not remember the words to get it to stop. “yoyo” screamed Jim but the horse just kept on speeding ahead. It was 5 feet from the cliff when Jim suddenly remembered, and yelled “heyhey!". The horse skidded to a halt just 1 inch from the cliff.
Jim could not believe his good fortune, he looked up to the sky, raised his hands in the air, breathed a deep sigh of relief and said with conviction “Thank God!”
