"Good morning, everyone," Steve said. "Sorry I had to cancel last week, something came up at the last minute." He was retired, but when the president called, he still had to answer. "I hope you enjoyed your time off. But we're all here now, and we'll be making dreamcatchers." Steve held up a completed dreamcatcher. You could tell he hadn't made it by how it looked halfway decent. For some reason, competency in this particular skill set eluded him. "Dreamcatchers originated in the Ojibwa culture, where charms based on spiderwebs were hung over infants' cradles to catch bad dreams, allowing only good ones to pass through--and I suspect we could all do with fewer bad dreams. So, normally I would show you how this works, but that would just teach you how to tie your fingers to a hoop. All the materials and instruction sheets you'll need are out, and if you run into trouble, I'll help as best I can. Get to it!"
