Not A Whole Lott Of Love
It would seem that the people of Pascagoula like to keep a close watch on their politicians. Residents in "that sleepy little town*" have gone so far as to put Senator Trent Lott in lock up. Well, his head anyway. Given Lott's staunch conservative hard-line and belief that homosexuality is something that can be kicked like cigarettes, (which is not to imply the lobbyist lover would ever discourage smoking) who are we to say that keeping his head under careful observation is a bad idea? The former Senate minority leader's coconut was sent to its cell after his original head was stolen shortly after its dedication in 1997. Attempts to deface his second likeness continue to ensue.
Lott resigned his Senate leadership in 2002, after controversy arose over some racial remarks. The 50-pound bronze bust did not resign its post from outside a school that also shares his name. Update 6/03: Lott has lost his head once again. The noggin went missing over the first weekend in June. No word yet on weather a third bust will be erected.
