Greetings, my friend!

Yes!  And Tubes, and pipes, and arms, and legs, and tapered structures like
the Eagles that won 1st place at T&Jam, and,...and,... and,...

I would *seriously* recommend this CD as the *BEST* source of information
available today to bridge the gap between "entertaining" type twisting and
"decorating" type creations.  This CD will help both the "Twisters" and the
"Stackers" to come up with incredible creations!  This CD really helps both
kinds of balloon artists to "think outside the box!"

There is *No* bloody BOX!  Twisters!  Look at the wonderful creations that
were shown at T&JAM!  You could never make these for a line or a restaurant,
but these would be *excellent* for Decor-type work!  Why not strut your
stuff and show just how skilled you can be by building a creation that will
be shown to 1000's of people in a store window?   Stackers!  Look at the
detail that is available when you use non-round balloons for your decor
work!  *MY GAWD!*  This CD will help both kinds of "balloon artist" realize
the full potential of "Balloons as Art!", ummm...

Sorry... <sheepishly hiding the soapbox...>  All I ask is that 'both' kinds
of balloon artists take a look at the potentials.  This CD bridges the gap
between "entertaining" with balloons and "decorating" with balloons, and it
has info that will help both worlds!  I've learned a *lot* from this
resource, and I know that anyone wanting to be the, ahem... "best balloon
artist in their socks!" (thanks, Tim!) will want to look at this CD.

<sigh...> Standard annoying disclaimer...

<yadda, yadda, yadda...> This is *not* a paid promotion of this CD,...
etcetra ad nausium...  I took the time to make this post because I *do*,
*TRULY* mean what I said!  Check it out for yourself.  This CD is a way to
make the 'average'  into the 'Exceptional!"

That, I cannot help you with, my friend.(sorry!)  I usually order from
T.Myers because that is the best source for my location. (northern Colorado,
USA.) I wish you luck in finding a source for your tutorials.
