Spokes in the Helix Nebula

Zounds! A great cosmic eyeball staring one down. I heard Sauron was defeated but I’m not so sure now. Brrr…

Speaking of spokes, one of my chores when I was a kid was to ride my bike to the dairy to get a gallon of milk and a loaf of bread. Have you ever got a loaf of bread caught in the spokes of a bike? The slices of bread shoot out like a deck of cards.

Just recently learned that the former guitarist of Helix</A](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFJ2J7b5C1A">Helix</A)> lives just around the corner from me. He owns several houses around here and rents them out - a slum landlord. :astonished:
