    OMG. I am so dumb. I've been looking for hobby matchboxes. Never thought to just go to the market where they sell matches. Thanks for reminder.

    LOL I was super confused for a second...I was like "they don't have matchboxes there?"

    You don't even have to waste the matches....just get a pack of them and dump them into one of the other boxes.

    I don't smoke either but I do light candles and incense. My master pack of matches is actually still left over from way back when I moved into my first apartment (as in my first non-shared apartment in Berlin) and I didn't know that you had to install your own lights in a lot of German apartments (depends on how cheap the previous tenants were and if they decided to take their light fixtures with them. I chose to leave my cheap Ikea fixtures when I left!) I didn't have ANY lights and only had one lamp and a christmas tree with lights on it, so I had to light candles for lights until I managed to get light fixtures and a friend over to help me install them.

      So I found a pack of 3 for 1.50. They seem bigger but it's what I got. What do you think?

        Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official; "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."

        The Chief nodded in agreement.

        The official continued; "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"

        The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied.. "When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women did all the work, Medicine Man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."

        Then the chief leaned back and smiled; "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."

          I was kinda thinking of the smaller matchboxes, but I wouldn't make you go buy more. The big ones are fine too, I suppose.

            I saw the small ones. Just way too tiny. Especially for me since I have bad vision and can't be working with tiny things. Think of mine as for the vision impaired! :P

                  Aww, but you have a WHOLE month to make it and send it off! And whatever kind of stuff you want - you can make a little shrine for the person you get (I mean with them in mind, if you know them at all) ...or like a little hobby shrine, or a little shrine of things you like to make them think of you...

                  The possibilities are endless!
