There is a standard arduino example in Arduino - ButtonStateChange

remove all the serial crap, modify it to divide by 24 instead of 4, and use the led pin as the output to the mpguino vss input.

If you have an uno, you can use it to program one of these (atmega w/uno bootloader, $1.98):

and get the size down to one chip. I don't know much about flip flops, except that they leave me with a soft forehead.
I have zero Arduion experience I think I would have to look at a arduino traning guides or something to get me going, I suppose I could have done that instead.

It costs about the same in parts I suppose.
