    THE BEST dra­wing you’ve ever done, by far is this roc­ket ship one. Thank you! I want to let you know that I’m put­ting this on my blog with cre­dits, of course, and a link back to Gaping Void.
    Won­der­ful work.

  3. And and put it on sale at Ebay.

    PS: Is there a cele­brity angle to it?

  4. Thanks! Ha, we want to pos­sess what we already are. Being born from the star­dust atoms & cyc­ling back to stars.

    By the way, here is the link to my blog. The current “most recent” post inc­lu­des your art. I’d love to hear your opi­nion on that post, if you don’t mind.

  11. Isn’t this as ludic­rous a sug­ges­tion as someone “owning” the land we walk on?

    Hey Vic­tor, I was trying to check out your blog — but there isn’t anything on that site. did you leave the correct URL (www.serviceknight.com) ?

    Didn’t you hear about that guy, about last year, who seriously wan­ted to buy the moon?
    We had no law about that; now, I think we have one.

  14. Brian says:

    I don’t see this as nega­tive at all. What’s wrong with owning the stars?
    Jus­tin, you’re being silly. Of course someone has to own the land you walk on — that’s how our society is built. Only terribly pri­mi­tive soci­ties ope­rate with the phi­losphy you express.
    F. de C. — By treaty the moon is set aside for inter­na­tio­nal use — no state can claim it, or part of it. Which is silly — there is no way to pro­perly use a thing unless you assign pro­perty rights.
