This quaint, irksome statue has been the catalyst of many a fender bender, over the years. And in the ultimate, much-buzzed-about act of defiance, someone painted his face blue when I was in high school. Rumor had it that my brother may or may not have been involved, but nothing was ever substantiated. Plus, my brother would not have done something like that. Nope. He was too busy jumping into the river from the Penny Rd. bridge.
