Boomerangs

Ahh boomerangs. They claim that they always come back, though I've never seen one accomplish anything more than half a U-turn. They are often associated with the kangaroos and koalas of Australia. Fun history fact for you: Many historians have found evidence actually linking the origins of boomerangs to Egypt over 2000 years ago. Fascinating, I know.

Boomerang is a T.V. network, Sokka's main weapon (avatar reference), and the cause of one of the funniest Ed Edd N' Eddy episodes ever. (If you've seen it you know what I'm talking about) This ancient invention has been repurposed for weapons, toys, and a third rate Eddie Murphy movie. Its a word, a theory and a random item yet to discover a practical purpose. Can't say that I'm extremely knowledgeable about these matters, but if you curious about anything else there is actually a website dedicated to these matters. Check out www.boomerangs.com for matters such as safety tips, tutorials, and frequently asked questions. Knowledge is fun, isn't it?
