Driving away rumors
During the usual course of things, August is one of those months in which not much happens. (Last year was decidedly different, because of the frenzy over the upcoming election.) However via InstaPundit (Michael Totten, guest blogging), I did find an interesting new Iraqi blog, where I found this post explaining a mystery I posted about in June of the girl allegedly turned into a dog for disrespecting the Koran. As it turns out, the rumors were triggered by this Italian sculpture of a monstrosity which looks like a cross between a dog and a girl. I have to say I am relieved. I was starting to worry about Coco: Girls that young really shouldn't be driving. . . posted by Eric on 08.12.05 at 09:31 PM

(ahem) I don't give a clap-ridden fuck what anybody says: that is not "sculpture". If that's what we're going to call it, then someone owes Michelangelo a profound apology. Man, the horseshit is so rampant now that it's just about completely seamless from the top of the day to the very livin' end. Christ on a banana-peel, already. Billy Beck · August 13, 2005 09:07 PM Well, it is a thing of some sort. A thing of great ugliness. (I probably should have put the word "sculpture" in quotes, but I'm not as fastidious as I should be.) Eric Scheie · August 14, 2005 01:37 PM Billy Beck: Excellent. Your style! I completely agree. Pardon my use of an economic analogy but: The definition of "art" (including "music" -- "crap" without the "c" is still crap) today hss become as completely debased as was the German currency was in the infamous "wheelbarrow inflation"* of the Weimar Republic. (*referring to the episode in which Germans had to load their money into wheelbarrows to buy a loaf of bread.) Steven Malcolm Anderson the Lesbian-worshipping man's-man-admiring myth-based egoist · August 14, 2005 04:00 PM That looks like a wax statue of a Janara. A Neapolitan mythical creature, female counterpart to a werewolf. Half woman, half rat. Rue · August 14, 2005 07:17 PM Looks like the "artist" borrowed the idea from Italian folklore.

A dog driving a car. A dog turning into a girl, or a girl turning into a dog. Looks likes somebody's trying to prove the evolution theory. Well, I must say that looks a lot better than all those ape-man pictures the evolutionists keep throwing up in our faces. I'll stick to creation myths.
