Actually, the 70's had some nice folk-rock in amongst the disco frap.
I do have some plastic chicken wire I used for the 'mater trellis. Good idea.

It'd have to be express mail :~D
~sip~
I supposed shooting one and propping it up is ~out~
What about finding a lean looking rooster and paint it?
True...
Here's hoping they pick good stuff. Taylor in particular has a history of picking songs he doesn't seem to know what to do with. Frustrating...I really like his voice when he's happy with a song and really into it.
*snicker*

You know, we have a duck decoy...

I like some of them once in awhile (haven't heard 2, 7 or 9), but I prefer a lot of your list...
Taylor could do Eagles, though, I bet! Hope he picks something good.
I was the sort of homeschooler who asked to write extra essays instead of doing crafty stuff so I don't have any suggestions for you... what I'd have done was buy a model hawk from some nature store, cover it in a thin layer of paper-mache, and then repaint it.
Nice tunes!
But your #5 needs more cowbell. ;-)
Cowbell snaig?
