Because you don't have faith in people or because you would not be able to resist vandalizing your own standee?

Because I would vandalize my own standee. Probably with a Justin Bieber or One Direction t-shirt.

I honestly cannot remember the last time I watched television. But I always rely on the League of Women Voters anyway.

flea, have you seen the Tarbell standees? The first time I drove past one, it did actually scare the hell out of me. No one wants to be surprised by Jim Tarbell.

I have a 50 foot Jim Tarbell visible from my workplace. Nothing can scare me now.

Seriously, 50 FEET? That ain't right.

It's on the building on Vine & Central Parkway. [link]

Sweet Jesus. Oh, Jim Tarbell. Never change. I love how he can never, ever, pass up being in a parade. One year he rode his Vespa in the Northside 4th of July parade.

What the hell is a standee?

I pulled my phone out if my pocket coming in from a cold, rainy walk and it flipped unprompted to a screen showing weather conditions in Puerto Vallarta. Not cool, iPhone, not cool.

Is that Mr. Monopoly??

That's who he looks like to me too, Jesse! Mr Moneybags!

What the hell is a standee?

Those life-size cardboard cutout dealies. I keep trying to find a picture of the one I'm talking about, but really, the 50-foot version wins everything.

Okay, here's a picture of the standee: [link] I just keep thinking that sign he's holding is just BEGGING to be vandalized.
