Ha ha.

I was trying to draw a star for 2 reasons:

A star is an important part of the US Air Force “roundel,” which is a new series I am exploring (check out the rest of that site - it’s what makes the internet so amazing).

As Phil said, 5 points on a circle are the next logical exploration of the 5×5, I think. Right now I am thinking about making a large sculpture with 25 5-bladed propellers on ball bearings, sort of like the front of jet engines.

5×5 becomes a star (5 outer points and 5 inner points). oh by the way dave, the pentagon called and wanted to buy the rights to your shipping containers just so the brits couldn’t ‘ave ‘em.

Good work with the star!
When you send that stuff to me, why don’t you send those wood flowers I gave you at your wedding. I will refinish and tighten them up for you.
