Is it just me, or does it look like bad shrink-e-dink (remember the stuff you used to color and then put in the oven and it would reduce in size like 50 times)?
And I really don't get the red tiger stripes on the wings of the arrow...somewhere our founders are spinning in their graves...

Shrink-e-dinks! I remember them fondly...using colored pencils and coloring them in and then putting them on a cookie sheet to "bake" Aw, childhood!

Hijacking the Thread to include Christmas/Holiday Gifts!

I was just looking for something on Overstock.com, and saw so many necklaces which had one sorority or another's symbol(s), I couldn't begin to list them all!

I just wish I could google "diamond" and get the <> shape, instead of the gem!

For those who collect penguins, or other Christmas gifties: http://www.solutions.com has those little porcelian gift box ornaments (to hide a small item) in various sizes/styles. If you buy 12, you get an exclusive one with a penguin & igloo.

They have two new ones with lighted birthday cake, and with a lighted Christmas tree: here and

Here are all 36.

Here's the email I got about them, with the bonus penquin & igloo and the code you need to order them:


Enjoy!

True confessions time...when I was in college, I was in charge of skit night one year during recruitment. I spent the summer making shrinky-dink nametags for all of our members that would match our skit. It was a different time back then.

I had never played with shrinky dinks before, and haven't since! Wonder if they till make them? That would be fun to do with my kids in a few years!

Yes they do, my kids love to make key chain charms out of shrinky dinks. You can buy them at Barnes & Noble in the kids section or just about any craft store.
