When I was 11 or 12 years old I was simply obsessed with yoyos. And Tommy Smothers had his yoyo act, and I was just enthralled. Here was this fully grown adult (this was in the late 80's) doing things with a yoyo that I wanted so badly to do. I always thought him to be the funniest, nicest guy, just based on his act. When I read that he passed, I wept. So long, Tommy.
