Richard's Poor Almanac by Richard Thompson for September 29, 2015
Transcript:
richard's poor almanac adams monument proposed by richard thompson adams as a monument to john adams, our most irritable founding father, we propose a heroic bust 150 feet tall that slowly revolves like a gas station signs. thus adams, who didn't suffer fools gladly, could sweep the city with his vast splenetic glare & unnerve idiots in all branches of government. improve. improve the behavior of tourists. and probably give that big stiff in the jefferson memorial the heebie-jeebies, too.
