Philip: You been smoking those funny cigarettes again? Maybe the BB gun thing would be a good WWPD project? I plan to attend the PSPCS camera swap the day before WWPD. Maybe we can get together on the 27th? I'll bring the BB gun and film. You bring the cardboard - I'm running low. -MM ________ Marcy Merrill www.JunkStoreCameras.com
