Hmmmm, I think I should know this but nothing is coming to mind, I need hints on this one. I'm off to a Seedy Sunday this morning so will check back in later.

Annette

Wham-o's Flying Disc-o? heehee.

OK, here's a hint.

The two word name is alliterative and the first word refers to a space object many miles from earth.

Hmmm...alliterative. Trying to remember, but Sputnik and Telstar went up about then. Satellite - something?? Moon - something?? I really need to think on this - good one, TM.

Nancy.

No clue. Orion's Orbiter? Saturn Satellite (going with Nancy's idea)? Sun Slider? Firmament Flyer? Jupiter Jumper (yes, getting desperate)? I give up! Great question TM.

Cynthia, you got really close there at the end. Go a little farther and then think of the Thanksgiving turkey.

I remember the idea came from throwing metal pie plates. How about Pluto Plate?

Ah ha!! Platter, Pluto Platter is that it? I thought I should know this one but I didn't.

Annette

That sure makes sense.

Nancy.

We were posting at the same time, TM. With your clue I will say Pluto Platter as well.

Yes, it was the Pluto Platter, bestowed by the inventor Morrison. When Wham-O changed the name to Frisbee, he at first said that it was a horrible name, but after making two million dollars in royalties from Wham-O said he wouldn't change it for the world.

for Annette, Nancy, and Bobbie.

for Cynthia for all those good guesses.

Hope your cold is getting better, Cynthia. I have one too and it's at it's peak right now. Another day or two and it will start to fade away.

As always, thanks for playing, y'all.

TM

Thanks for the stars TM, I was completely in the dark until I started putting bits together from everyone else's answers, it pays to lurk at times :). As always another fun weekend.

Annette

THAT is great!!! Excellent question, TM. Thanks for the stars. Wish I had gotten back in time to benefit from Nancy and Annette's brilliance!

No brilliance here - merely a moon-like reflection from the Great Annette!!!

Nancy.
