Origami

1.) You can fold a sheet of seaweed into an origami crane.
2.) Then my cat will eat it.

AWESOME! What kind of seaweed was it?

I've tried to do origami with nori, but it's too brittle. The nori just falls apart wherever you try to make a fold, let alone a crease. I had decided that seaweed origami was impossible, but I didn't try with any other kinds. Or maybe you were using nori, in which case you have the magic touch, and I salute your leet skillz.

Nori is great for cutting silhouettes, though, and you can use pinking shears and hole-punches on it. It's basically saline paper.

I too am impressed with your leet japanese food skillz.

Is nori good for cats? I suppose it's just salty greens so it can't be particularly bad for them.

Hey, know this isn't the right thread for it but I couldn't get ahold of you any other way. I have your old website files from the foxbat server. Do you want them? If so let me know and I will get them to you, or it not let me know and I will purge them and destroy the backups. I'm on gmail now, as arcturax. Just mail me and I can reply with a link to your files :)
