    And now...onto the News

    --Furby, for Valentine's Day

    Still looking for a Valentine's Day gift for your love interest and you're
    way too broke for jewelery and flowers are out because they're allergic to
    them? Why not try giving them a Valentine's Day Furby? This little one has
    been named as www.everythingvalentine.com's #2 big Valentine's Day gift for
    kids, and who can blame them?  Also, Tiger has loads of other Valentine's
    Day Gift ideas like Furby Cards that are in stores now, so if your loved
    one is a Furby Fan, that may be the easiest way to go.  And if they don't
    like it, there's nothing stopping you from taking it back for yourself ;)

    He is also #2 on KBToys list of hot Valentines gifts this year!  This is a
    limited edition Furby, so even if you're not giving it as a gift but you are
    a collector you should get out and get one for yourself, I have a feeling
    they will be going fast!

    [There isn't a whole lot of news this week.  Has something to do with it
    being after the holidays, so it's a slower time of the year for toy sales.
    If you happen to know of a peice of news that might be of interest to us,
    feel free to send it along!  We always appreciate reader suggestions and
    input, thank you.]

    Electronic Furby website updates

    -Gizmo Section
    Yes I finally got the Gizmo section of my site online.  It's not major or
    extensive.  The best part is the sound files, which anyone with or without a
    Furby should enjoy, especialy the chat ones!  This section isn't likely to
    get too big, it seems not many people have Gizmo or like Gizmo?

    -The Poll
    The website Furby Poll has been updated!  It's an interesting one :)  It
    only takes two clicks to complete, so if you'd be so kind as to fill it out,
    the URL is:
    http://www.mimitchi.com/html/fpoll.htm

    -The Poll Results
    The bi-weekly poll results can all be viewed on a second page, if you didn't
    know.  Some of them are rather interesting!  You are even welcome to submit
    your own bi-weekly poll question suggestions to me, if you would like!

    Furbish Word of the Issue:

    "Toh-Loo" which means "like" in Furbish is an often mispelled name.  While
    it is usually heard correctly the spellings seem to vary from "tohlo",
    "toelou", and "tolu".  The correct spelling however is "Toh-Loo".
