10) Continue adding pyramids around the edge. It starts to curve back in on itself.

11) Attach the last pyramid by sliding it in, then sticking a paperclip in the joint and pressing the flaps until they stick.
12) Cover the outside with tape. Otherwise it is too fragile.
13) Recolor it with permanent markers, since the last step obscured the color.

Does writing count?
 

I have a short story in the current issue of Cthulhu Sex Magazine, which is the first bit of creative fiction I've had published in some time.

(My mother is so proud..)

http://www.cthulhusex.com/ - "Cursed" be the tale.
(There's no actual link to the story on the site, dang it all, but if you click on my name, the story *is* on my website..)

Great story, Elion. I think I was married to her.:)

Tee hee ... gotcha!

(i recognized the bricks immediately, wanted to let some other folks have a chance. But my TRUE triumph here was to catch you with the old "make you repeat yourself when you make some refererence to ears or hearing". This was a geek-amusement from my college days. We were very good at it, and would always reprocess a statement when someone said "what?" before a repeat to make sure we hadn't been caught. One of the best gotchas involved a trip to a drive-thru safari park where someone pointed out a herd of antelope, was "whatted" and repeated. hmm. guess you had to be there, and it is a lot funnier in a verbal exchange).

Your image is VERY cool.
