A simple solution

I proudly display a CNMI flag on the wall of the living room at our house so that no one would miss it, and in the years it was in plain view to our visitors. A recent visitor to our house-a friend of mine from the mainland-saw the CNMI flag on the wall and stared at it. I asked why he had an eye glued to the CNMI flag. After a brief moment of explaining his lifetime passion for the arts as a retired performing arts professor in Massachusetts, he convincingly demonstrated to me that the object referred to as the “Latte stone” looks more like a protruding male organ. I asked how could he say such a thing; he said that was his first impression. But then again, I asked how that could be resolved. He said it could be changed and reformatted to remove the imperfection. He recommended that the Latte stone form could be set in a three-dimensional view-that would be the simplest solution.
