1. An apparatus comprising: an upper flying disk having an upper surface, a perimeter, a centerpoint, and a lower surface;a lower flying disk having an upper surface, a perimeter, a centerpoint, and a lower surface, wherein the upper flying disk has a circumference slightly larger than the lower flying disk, thereby enabling the lower flying disk to engage within the upper flying disk in a nested position;a cord having a first end and a second end, the cord connecting the lower flying disk to the upper flying disk;an aperture positioned at the centerpoint of the upper flying disk;a first loop of cord passing through the aperture in the upper flying disk;a bead mounted on the first loop of cord, the bead having a diameter larger than a diameter of the aperture;a cord lock positioned on the cord so as to form a second loop of cord positioned proximate the second end of the cord; wherein, a length of cord separating the upper flying disk from the lower flying disk may be adjusted by selectively adjusting the second loop. 2. The apparatus as in claim 1, further comprising a hole positioned adjacent the centerpoint of the lower flying disk; wherein the cord passes through the hole. 3. The apparatus as in claim 1, the cord further comprising a snap device enabling the cord to separate into distinct portions of cord. 4. The apparatus as in claim 1, wherein the cord is elastic. 5. The apparatus as in claim 1, further comprising a third flying disk attached to the cord. 6. A method comprising the steps of: providing an upper flying disk having an upper surface, a perimeter having a downwardly depending edge, a centerpoint, and a lower surface;providing a lower flying disk having an upper surface, a perimeter, a centerpoint, and a lower surface;providing a cord having a first end and a second end;positioning a cord lock on the cord by passing the cord through the cord lock;connecting the cord adjacent the first end of the cord to the lower surface of the upper flying disk adjacent the centerpoint of the upper disk;connecting the cord adjacent the second end of the cord to the upper surface of the lower flying disk adjacent the centerpoint of the lower flying disk;providing an adjustment mechanism including a first loop of cord passing through an aperture in the upper flying disk, a bead mounted on the loop of cord, the bead bearing a circumference greater than a diameter of the aperture, and forming a second loop of cord that passes through the cord lock;selectively adjusting a length of cord in the second loop;engaging the upper flying disk and the lower flying disk together into an engaged position; and,throwing the upper flying disk and lower flying disk while in the engaged position such that the disks disengage while airborne. 7. The method as in claim 6, further comprising the steps of: making a hole adjacent the centerpoint of the lower flying disk; and,passing the cord through the aperture and the hole. 8. The method as in claim 6, the engaging step further including the steps of: selecting the upper flying disk to have a circumference slightly larger than a circumference of the lower flying disk; wherein,the lower flying disk engages within the upper flying disk in a nested position. 9. The method as in claim 6, further comprising the steps of: performing the throwing step while the disks are in the engaged position; and,catching the upper flying disk and the lower flying disk.
