On my recent trip down to San Diego I encountered something truly stunning outside an inexpensive motel... Lovely mermaid and pirate statues.
It made me think how random this was and who the person was who:
a) Said, "ya, know. I've always wanted a mermaid and a pirate statue outside the motel. I think that combo would really spruce the place up."
b) What such a thing would cost.
c) The artist who created the statue - were they totally into it too? Or did they think the motel owner was a bit off their rocker?
d) How many drunk people jump over the fence to take pictures with it (as I did with my friends)?
e) Why aren't there more pirate or mermaid statues in the world? I think it would be a happier place! (I will also take giant penguin, donuts and anything with Bob's Big Boy in the title)
