Today is my birthday! Please tell me fun maths facts

@christianp The attached figure shows two pentagons inscribed in each other: each vertex of one pentagon lies on a line through a side of the other pentagon. You can't do this with quadrilaterals in the Euclidean plane, but you can in the complex projective plane: see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%C3%B6b

Happy birthday!
