The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

Well, if you did want a tan, there are artifial ways of getting one. Not that I'd ever fo it though. I've good a nice deep natural tan myself. Comes from walking and biking to and from work during Arizona summers. Thankfully, I am in no danger of getting skin cancer now. I won't bother you with other two cancer worries.

Yeah, I tend to tan easily as well during the summer. But I always have the farmer's tan going on, browned on my arms and face, but the extreme pasty white underneath my shirt.


Of course, saying you won't bother me with worries worries me. I'm not much of a prayer myself, but I still hope whatever worries you have turn out to be needless.

...

And if you find yourself in need of 1,000 paper cranes, let me know.

Well, I need to have a couple of things checked. I too, hope all it is is just needless worry.

What, have I never mentioned that in the hive before? Hmmm. . . I guess not.

Yeah, origami is a hobby of mine. Charmin' the ladies with paper roses since 1990.

Found instructions on how to make a paper crane. Tried it but got stuck at points 6, 7 & 8. I guess I have no knack for folding.

I had an oriental firend since high school until some years ago that was big on paper shuriken. Is folding all the rage in the orients?

Is it possible to fold a paper duck?

Those are fairly bad instructions. Not everyone has the mindset for it, but I wouldn't give up just yet. Try this. . .

Is it possible to fold a paper duck?

Yes, I have one standing on a bookshelf at home. Looks something like this one.

There are simpler ones as well.

It's certainly more popular in Japan than America, and it has spread to the surrounding countries. Vietnam especially.

But the paper shuriken is more just a kid thing, one of those pieces of origami that nobody thinks about as origami. Like the fortune-teller or paper airplane.
