It's called "F#ck off babies. It's dancin' time!"

Not terrifying. Just very different from what we are used to seeing in architecture.

Strange and outre maybe.

The one that burned down a while back (in Ohio, I think). The church said at the time that it planned to rebuild it.

Also known as Big Butter Jesus

I really liked the "Touchdown Jesus" and used to drive by it frequently. It was just so cheesy that it was "special".

I also thought it was fitting that it was struck by lightning and burned/melted to the ground. Some kind of cosmic statement.

I haven't seen the replacement.

Honestly. I'm not kidding.

If we were talkin' Roller Derby.

Now, I have to puke.

That is truly disturbing.

Many of their articles are so entertaining and off-beat that I just can't not visit there.

Write "LOSER" on it.

they seem to be "defacing" the sidewalks around the statue and the riverfront walk way.

Easy enough.

Your boy goes off to camp with these two and he comes back a little man!

In light of what we know about scouting today, they might want to reconsider that statue.

Like this one of Baron Stueben, the 18th Century Prussian mercenary, in Lafayette Square across from the White House. It also contains a plaque on the opposite side dedicated to William Walker, the Civil War era adventurer and slaver who briefly conquered Nicaragua in the 1850s.



And then there is this national treasure in bronze lying on the concourse in front of the Ronald Reagan Bldg. on 14th Street. A draped nude man and a boy, curiously titled "The Voice of Reason":


And, fasces are all over town in DC, from the Well of the Senate to the Supreme Court Bldg:

Also in Lafayette park is a half-dressed woman passing a sword to the guy on the pedestal (I'm blanking out on the name of the particular warrior).

Elsewhere in the city is a bare-chested George Washington, the tale of which is told below:

And then there's this treasure from the Federal Trade Commission:

I think the same guy did Pauline Bonaparte on a chaise longue draped like that?

excuse me, I meant "sculpted", not "did"

This was more the cover I was used to:

on a tour of the city, our tour guide pointed to a headless statue. She said, "It used to be Lenin but they haven't decided whose head to replace it with yet. That is pretty common here in Russia. We keep the bodies and take off the heads as the political tides change, store them somewhere, and just pop on the head that is currently in fashion. It saves money."

Depending on circumstances of departure, they could even put the old head on a spike. Double-duty and all that

eom

When a bigwig who had statues of himself all over Rome fell out of power for whatever reason, they'd often just replace the head with one that was the likeness of the new bigwig.

Turtle Boy in Worcester MA.




The Great Frog Battle Memorial in Willimantic CN.

and even if they can, do you think that one did, given the distressed look on its face?

eom

is pretty awesome

It would be gorgeous if they changed the eyes to blue.

Have to look at that thing on my way to the airport and back.

That thing REALLY needs to go and replaced with something a little bit more appropriate.

Imagine my surprise as I laughed at the images and clever writing which accompanies them, only to click to Page 2 to see the boll weevil monument!



Thanks for the link!

Whoof.

I'm in stitches. My eyes are teering soumuch I cant tipe

He hasn't actually kicked the field goal baby yet, but the one over is right is already signaling a good kick,

The cow seems to be enjoying it, though.

the "anti-St. Nicholas" in Germany and the surrounding countries. It's a popular Christmas myth in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, etc.

This 19th century depiction shows similarities:

I've been to the Netherlands. If I'd known about Santa and the buttplug I would have gone and seen that. I can just see myself climbing up the statue for a picture.
