Good-bye Arthur Melin
Now that you're dead, your contributions to humanity (Superball, Frisbee, Hula Hoop, Slip'N Slide, Silly String) can finally be acknowledged.
Thank you, Arthur, for your gifts. Yes, I know, you didn't invent the Frisbee. You bought out Pluto Platter. But you definitely knew a good toy when you saw one (most of the time - there was the "Belly Bongo"), and gave the world the toy I most wish I had invented.
