I actually like a bunch of these statues in this thread -- a LOT. but many of them are damn ugly and aren't immune to satire.

I'm trying to find the truly awful matruskasian things in that Whole Foods/Tutta Bella corner on Denny and Westlake, but I guess people knew to not take pictures of them and put them online.

For those of you who hate MLK Day, don't forget this repost:
http://vcnv.org/images/02mlk.jpg
I've read up on this, and it's meant to depict Dr. King when he was a young preacher. It's still very "um" to me.
If I remember correctly, it's located on the grounds of the Illinois State Capitol.

It's true, all the other statues on the capital grounds are stately, dignified, well-rendered, but here comes MLK looking like absolute shit (it's "abstract") and whistling Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah. Way to go, guys.

Neilsen family status in from of King 5 studios off Dexter Ave. in Seattle... a block or so away from KEXP.
I think this is meant to be one of those cement blocks to prevent cars from wanting to ramrod the studio entrance.
