Oh and you can buying saluting gnomes? While I'm not going to argue art isn't subjective lets not just go on the attack because we don't happen to like or care for it.

  | Yep, I agree GG. Wouldn't say they were art either...

| I'd sneak into the middle of all the gnomes with a sharpie and draw a little mustasche under one of the gnomes noses, then it could be a game for the kids to play - Where's Adolf?

| They look better suited as targets for my .300 Savage. Even better if they're plaster...makes more visual gratification when the bullet rips through 'em...

| Art is what you make of it, and everyone has their own interpretation and opinion on it. One thing remains though - all art is simply the expression of an idea as seen through the eyes of the individual artist , whether it be in the form of music, a painting of sunflowers in a vase, or rows of plastic saluting gnomes... |
