The möbius strip has only one face and only one edge. You can place a pencil in the center of the strip and draw a line all the way around it on both “sides” without ever lifting your pencil off it’s surface.

From The Desk Of Ken Pellegrino Part 4 of 4

Chris,

It is Jacob, and I am sorry to inform you that I am writing this letter in sadness rather than joy. I have been given the torturous task of informing you that Alexander, your beloved Salamander, has been viciously murdered in the most vicious of viciousness. Alex as you know had a penchant for the finer things in life. His favorite activity was visiting the local Lizard Brothel of SEX. There his favorite mistress was a sultry Iguana known as Laureen. Laureen was involved in some seedy affairs, most notable being the main squeeze of Tony, King of the Chameleon Underground. When Tony, Anthony for short, caught wind of Laureen’s cahooting with Alex, he popped a gasket and ran amuck. Anthony sent a crack team of hard hitting motha suckas down to Alex’s place, proceeded to tie him down and give him a Vietnamese Pipe Bomb. They followed up by breaking every one of Alex’s bones then threw him in a blender on puree. Once done they fed him to Carl the Cat for good measure. They then took Carl’s poop and set it on fire. Well, I won’t give you the really gory details, but Alex is gone, and I’m sorry.

Good day old friend,
Jacob
