i'm pretty certain the person making the road signs where i live is a cohen fan

That looks like fun! When you say " this landed on my desk ", do you mean that you actually have one of the kits, or did you just receive the information about them? no, i don't have it, and haven't yet considered buying it - but i too thought it looked like fun. in some ways like a jigsaw puzzle. ...
