I'm going to give "Haileys" a thumbs up! (actually just one thumb)
It's better than "wheelies" which I hear way to often...
And after I've corrected the same person 3 times and spelled out H E E L Y S and they still call them wheelies, I'm ready to shot them
Since we want to market them to adults on the go, how about "Transporters"?
Catchy, eh, and futuristic too!
PS, some Heely models are available up to size 12 and you may be able to find a 13 on ebay.
PPS, I glide around my company in Heelys (a large company) |

Yes, but it was based(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_Adventure) on this dinosaur:
heres the link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colossal_Cave_Adventure
This is the one I was thinking of. Colossal Cave Adventrue is often just refered to as Adventure.
And I know what you youngsters are thinking, and the answer is NO, I never played this game.  |
