Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, cool stuff about the author, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s The Far Side!

I was thinking it was a crystal-dangling thing. Know how they put one on a string and let it swing?

Seems plausible, maybe the rocky components of concrete aggregate are causing the circling.
