Those who fidget will always fidget, whether clicking their pen incessantly or playing with a new doodad. I'm glad they have more options now, creative options too. Choice is good.

My grandkids have them. Who would think you could take a few race bearings put them together in colored plastic and make a billion dollars. I'm thinking a Pet Rock. Chris

The poor woman that invented it for her son didn't have the money for a patent renewal and doesn't get a penny from profits. She is okay with this as it helps kids out. She wouldn't mind having made money off it but realizes you can't go crazy over what you can't control.

I have been doing that for 50 years every time I change a wheel bearing, who would have thought?

Train how you intend to Fight
Remember - Training is not sparring. Sparring is not fighting. Fighting is not combat.
