LIONS, and tigers and bears, OH MY!

[stusegal]

So I came home the other day, and THESE were in front of my neighbor's home:


So you could appreciate the scale, I asked Vito to be in the photo.  On a SLIM DAY, Vito is about 130 lbs - if we feed him Twinkies and pretzels he tops 140.

Poll #1-2008
Open to: all, results viewable to: all

What would you do?

IGNORE (easy for you to say since you're not living next door)
Let big Vito do what he wants (which is, incidentally, to lift his leg whenever he gets near the lions - which so far I haven't let him do)
Get bigger lions, or elephants, for our home (tell me where)
Get the kids from Rutgers to paint them red.
Run a "Name The Lions" contest (could I award the lions to the winner?)
Congratulate the neighbor on his impeccable taste and his extraordinary luck in finding such distinctive lawn ornaments.

Any other suggestions?

While these are good suggestions, I'm thinking that either:
- I cave and compliment them on their impeccable taste, or
- I up the ante significantly.

So the question becomes . . . . . would Phat Mandee be willing to come our home, on her elephant, with her husband, on Tamil Thai Pongal Day (which is of course the "Thanksgiving Day" of Sri Lanka) to perform on our front lawn. Then we could construct a permanent memorial to the Tamil Thai Pongal Day performance of Phat Mandee which could remain on our lawn until the removal of the cruelly dipped lions.

I warn you: if I show this to her, she may show up on your lawn ready to go.
