Deadbeat in a Bar

A man walked into a bar on a slow night and sat down. After a few minutes, the bartender asked him if he wanted a drink.

He replied, "No thanks. I don't drink. I tried it once, but I didn't like it."

So the bartender said, "Well, would you like a cigarette?"

But the man said, "No thanks. I don't smoke. I tried it once, but I didn't like it."

The bartender asked him if he'd like to play a game of pool, and again the man said, "No thanks. I don't like pool. I tried it once, but I didn't like it. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be here at all, but I'm waiting for my son."

The bartender said, "Your only son, I'm guessing."

Paper Folding Templates

Can't help but notice all the traffic I get because of one page of paper folding templates and searches for the same.  I have put together here a pretty good set of links to web sites devoted to this kind of craft.  I also threw in some origami links.  Exact same thing, but, different.

 

Milkwood Designs - This is the original Web location of Milkwood Designs.

Shambles - Two dozen, yep, 24 links to different paper folding and origami sites.

Download Software 4 Free - Free downloads of paper folding and origami games and how to software.

 

Only 3 links, but they are big links.  I have done paper folding for gifts a couple of times.  I have found that people love and appreciate the personal touch.  Hope these links help and that you enjoy.

 

Remember! No matter where you go, there you are.
