Just about 15 minutes ago, the UPS guy pulled up and handed me a fairly
heavy box. Now although I get a lot of deliveries from UPS for my
business, I didn't have any outstanding orders so I was a little puzzled
as to what was in the box.
Once I opened it up, I was no longer
puzzled--I was now completely baffled. This was inside the box:
According to a little tag on the bottom, it's called "The Kiss." The
thing is pretty damn heavy and it's about a foot tall. It's a bronze
statue of a man and a woman making out. And they're nude.
What the--? I dug through the box looking
for some clue as to why this was sent to us, but I got nothing. No note,
no card, no packing slip, no nothing. Just 15 pounds of hand-sculpted
porn. Honestly, I can't say
that I dislike it, though. It's really, um, well....kitschy, I guess. I'm
definitely going to put it up somewhere in the house, that's for damn
sure. It would be a great conversation piece if people actually came to
visit us. But the artistic melding of
semi-precious metal and heavy petting is not the most baffling thing
here...
The most baffling thing here is that Beth's 85-year-old grandfather sent
this to us. |
