#18 The Big Fat Star

The Piratesheep of the Rock Ship Kurmatum al Hurd stood proud, stood tall, drank Pepsi and cursed in tongues: “Arrgh baaa arghbug!”

The Big Fat Star, known to men as that of Bethlehem, was beheld by Captain Bloodmonkey. And he *knew*. He knew it was no Star. Rather, it was the exhaust vent of the Jolly Wagon of Destruction, the Machine of Consumption, the Flaming Mothership of Mass. He gave the order and the Rock Ship Kurmatum al Hurd turned towards their distant foe.

    Oh, really, Sir, it’s not fat at all, that star, but spiky. Spiky as in fashion model.

    Yes, well … and the sheep are fluffy but not fat. But lo, even the evenstar is fat and bloated by a runaway greenhouse effect, should not the spiky star also perhaps be fat?

    See, it’s not so hard! And stars really shine because globules of interstellar fat fall onto their gravitationally attractive superheated surfaces and sizzle mightily!

    I apologize for the delays. It takes around 3 hours work to produce one of these images, time I just haven’t found recently. I should have time Wednesday evening.
