Ms. Diva, you ask the hardest questions. I was thinking about this monument thing this morning, and it just hit me. SPAM. Make the whole thing out of SPAM. Y'know, Div, you been awful funny lately. Hurt my stomach muscles the other day. Say, you haven't seen anybody stealing material from Shark, have you? He's been walking around like a broke toenail, muttering something about thieves.

What worries me are the monuments, those erections in stone. Those things go up, but they never come down. Could they be a wish fulfillment fantasy for guys on the Right?

My Entry: A gigantic statue of Reagan made from SPAM. Visitors can climb a staircase and enter the skull (since it's emtpy, ie accurate in every detail). On the exterior, the rich have their own viewing stand and air-conditioned sky boxes with nearby parking. The poor have to park far away and ride a bus to the location. They have to stand in the fountain that surrounds the base of the statue. The 'fountain' consists of piss pouring from a small hole under each eye of Reagan's spam-eyes; the piss "Trickles Down" onto the less fortunate who couldn't afford a spot in the preferred 'sky boxes'. Single mothers, the poor, the elderly, and most minorities are then taken to slightly higher level of the statue, where they're shoved off the edge by armed guards -- and go flying through a dismantled "safety net" onto the concrete below. Each night shortly after sunset, Reagan's zipper opens to reveal a large oil derrick that becomes erect and shoots bottle rockets toward a simulated incoming Russian missile towed by a Piper Cub. There is a donation box at the exit of the facility: money goes to illegal Contra operations in South America, as well as Oliver North's retirement fund.
