Wait a minute!

JazzManJim - the man who can only tell the truth and is a cop so he knows told me that it odesn't exist! WTF?

Oh never mind that one - the one with the crossed swords modelled on Saddam's hands has got to go.

I was about to say that I thought that memorial was very nice.

Had a certain quality to it that I just liked.

Schwarzkopf just jinxed me on NBC - he started talking about the same sculpture right when I hit submit.

Norman, you owe me a beer.


Edit - stutter when I type too

quite stalinistic, aren't they?

 

[Topher]

I have to admit that the eggshells have a certain aesthetic draw, but the rest of the monuments are really tacky.

And even that monument has some questionable symbolism what with Iranian helmets littered at its bottom. I guess I might gloat about "conquering" my enemies too, though.

I suppose someone might say Mt Rushmore is tacky <shrug>
