on 4/16/2008 Any one know how to fold paper to where you end up tearing off pieces to where it ends up being the word "HELL"? When I was young there was a story that told of a person getting a strip and when he died he gave them to the guy at the Pearly gate and when he laid them out it said his passage was to hell, I know the story is not quiet right but I really would like to get it correct.
