First I've heard of that. The Rockman statues are just whimsically silly, and not to my liking, but that dog story is reprehensible. Guess what, I don't forgive you.

no one cared what happened to the chicken in Pink Flamnigoes

In his book Shock Value Waters claims they ate the chicken afterwards, and wonders why anyone who eats meat would have an issue with that scene. Sorta agree, although I have a hard time with that scene.

And Waters hates sports, so I'm sure he never saw Tillman.

i think its supposed to be an abstracted antelope on a boat (im not kidding, im pretty sure thats the real story). its an african thing, but it's still barf-a-licious. what really kills me are the fucking black marble caskets radiating around it.

I'm not crazy about the finished Crazy Horse, I think it looks more impressive and cool unfinished. I mean, the unfinished version has a natural authority about it and the model looks too European.

Kyle and Rury had not seen each other during the decade that Kyle was in the Navy. But they picked up where they left off, pulling pranks on each other. Several times, Rury sneaked up Kyle’s driveway in the middle of the night and slapped pro-Obama bumper stickers on his truck. (Kyle was a fervent Republican.) In retaliation, Kyle pasted one on Rury’s truck that declared “I Love Black Cock.”

The SEALs began telling stories, and Kyle offered a shocking one. In the days after Hurricane Katrina, he said, the law-and-order situation was dire. He and another sniper travelled to New Orleans, set up on top of the Superdome, and proceeded to shoot dozens of armed residents who were contributing to the chaos. Three people shared with me varied recollections of that evening: the first said that Kyle claimed to have shot thirty men on his own; according to the second, the story was that Kyle and the other sniper had shot thirty men between them; the third said that she couldn’t recall specific details.

In 1997, a 12-ton sandstone statue depicting Mel Gibson as William Wallace in Braveheart was placed in the car park of the Wallace Monument near Stirling, Scotland. The statue, which was the work of Tom Church, a monumental mason from Brechin,[20] included the word "Braveheart" on Wallace's shield. The installation became the cause of much controversy; one local resident stated that it was wrong to "desecrate the main memorial to Wallace with a lump of crap."[21] In 1998 the face on the statue was vandalised by someone wielding a hammer. After repairs were made, the statue was encased in a cage every night to prevent further vandalism. This only incited more calls for the statue to be removed as it then appeared that the Gibson/Wallace figure was imprisoned. The statue was described as "among the most loathed pieces of public art in Scotland."[22] In 2008, the statue was returned to its sculptor to make room for a new visitor centre being built at the foot of the Wallace Monument.[23]
