RE: "Unconventional" Abraham Lincoln statue unveiled in Woonsocket
Well....I read it......
It's a different kind of statue to mark and remember what transpired. The statue itself may be remembered more than the event it commemorates. I'll guess it's one of those pieces of "art" that you just have to see to fully appreciate. So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in? |

I like it. It looks like Picasso meets Abraham Lincoln.

P.S. The bookends are not good sellers. |
