Obviously I’m interested in money. “Who isn’t?” you say. “Well, monks,” I respond.

But that’s not what I meant.

What I meant is, I’m interested in money enough to write a book about it. Another thing I’m interested in is Star Wars (though ‘interested’ might be putting it mildly). So you can imagine my delight when I found these amazing origimi Star Wars spaceships made with US dollar bills.

The origami artist (origamist?) is Won Park — and the Force is clearly strong with him. I’m no Jedi Master of origami — I couldn’t even call myself an origami Padawan — but I’m tempted to start folding up some of my Australian plastic money to see what I can make.

On second thoughts, maybe not. I need my money for food. (Speaking of which, have you bought a copy of Explorers yet?)
