Trans-disfiguration
Ever have so many bills that you couldn’t take care of all the necessities, much less the fluff? Remember how Columbus said that it didn’t have enough money to give its police officers a raise, much less hire more of them? Surprise! It looks like the city that still hasn’t found a proper name for itself, has been pigeonholing a few pennies and they now have in the neighborhood of $250,000 for a real work of art…
The picture above is not the exact sculpture (Transformation or Transfiguration) being purchased by the city’s school board for their new palace… er, library. But from what we’ve seen in the 12th Street Rag (not online, of course), it’s a near likeness, and by the same… ummm, inventor (artist seems a bit generous). The name is Albert Paley and his website is here.
Now, a quarter of a million dollars is a LOT of money. So are the thousands they spent searching for a good city motto. And while I am not a resident of Pee Wee’s Playhouse G-A, I will make this offer:
To: The Consolidated Insane Asylum of West Georgia
From: Sin City Inquisition & Bar B Q
Subject: You Can Afford Me
Save money by paying me to pile junk in front of your library! Will haul it in and stack it wherever you want! Rusty cars, nonworking appliances, old furniture, rancid bathroom fixtures, corroded street signs? NO PROBLEM!
And if you act now, we’ll throw in a free CITY MOTTO!
We are a small company so we have far less overhead and we pass along the savings to YOU!
Yes indeed, offers like this don’t happen everyday, so don’t delay! Save yourselves the utter embarrassment of explaining it on election day!
Just email us at redoubt@gmail.com TODAY!
PS- I'll even throw in a few cans of old spray paint @ no charge!
