If you think your neighborhood association is bad, try living in Sag Harbor, a fancy pants area of the Hamptons. Formerly a haven for artists including Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner, it's now a battleground for two art dealers and public officials.
Take a gander at this giant leg sculpture by acclaimed Larry Rivers that's causing all the discontent in paradise. These legs have been outside the couple's home for two years, but some residents think it's an eye sore and are looking for zoning regulations to forbid the legs from being on display.
I have to say it's growing on me.
It may not be the most amazing piece of artwork ever produced, but hey, it's better than these lawn ornaments that I would vote right out of town.

You really don't want to live next door to this guy. REALLY.
A starving tiger that seems to be able to punch whoever is behind him with his tiger fist. I hope this was a homecoming prank gone awry.
A drunken Mexican with a missing arm will not endear you to your non-white, non-racist, neighbors. Just an FYI.
You can buy a huge lot of these at Wal-Mart and then pray every night before you go to bed that they don't come to life and stab your entire family in their sleep.
What's the worst lawn ornament you've ever seen?

Not to mention seeing my garbage in their yard.
A vote for McCain/Palin sign.
Hey Maryannmink, at least the Palin sign doesn't totally stink up your whole life like the Obama presidency does. Perhaps some critical thinking is in order?
Sahmalama,
Yes, it is critical you take your head and remove it from the sand. Please figure it out before you and your friends ruin this country forever.
idiots polarizing the country, waving a flag that you have no intention of honoring. "tea party" sigh.
Ahhh...way to turn this into a political debate.
sahmalama - Perhaps you should go look for your sense of humor and get over yourself.
There's a house down the road from us that always has a yard full of ornaments. There's no rhyme or reason to any of it. Just a collectino of ornaments. At x-mas time it's even worse. Every inch of that yard has something in it and is covered in lights. It's hilarious but I'm glad I don't live by them. :P
