You go on ahead. Post us a picture when you get it done. [/b] I really wish I could find the referenced pg 140. although looks like enough to start construction. My parents had this while I was growing up.... I guess that's why I still have the nasty habit. I just really, really loved playing with that bird. Dam that bird, now I see he was just plain evil.

wow...i bet a smoker would find that an excellent gift, especially if they were into things like that...

[/b] Yes it is a nasty habit and you should quit...but nicotine does help with LD so maybe you can use the patch and kill two birds with one stone.

It may make a great gift for someone in China, where smoking trend seems to be on an up rise, especially among most males as per recent study statistics. I currently do not know anyone from there though. Maybe I should revise the craft altogether…make it suit something for today, since it was issued in like 1938. Mmmmm...... wonder what the tar levels for Cigs. were back then. <-yellow teeth (yummy) I could look at re-designing this and post an enhanced design…any ideas for improvement? I think it should supply something other than cigarettes. The bird needs some revision work too.

another 'vintage' craft that's coming back in. Knitting! *drool* I'm always knitting, even if it's only a scarf... It's very therapeautic and relaxing, although when you are learning it can be a pain in the butt.

It seems so cool to take yarn and make a sweater or whatever. They have good yarn now it seems like; pretty colors and that furry kind that people make scarves out of. I would also like to be able to sew.
