That weird Shrubya effigy/float thing that was in the Pride parade and Comfest? No one told me it was Ben Cohen, of Ben & Jerry's fame driving it.

Though now that I think of it, it did have a Vermont license plate.

What did it do, play his quotes? What a brilliant thing.

The LCD sign had alternating "Truths" and "Lies" but I *think* they were always the opposite of what they were labeled (so I guess they all were lies then?) It was pretty cool, and quite popular at both Pride and the Community Festival.

I was amazed at the fact that the thing was wearing a very authentic looking flightsuit, that looked like it was made for someone about 14 feet tall.

The weirdest part was that before I knew what it was for, I saw it hurtling toward me down a road at 45 mph after dark! Scary.
