The pirate one is cool. Since they don't have a "real" Winnie the Pooh one, I think I'm most partial to the Chinese takeout box: [link]

Oh, man, that Animal lunchbox would totally go with my Animal fist-sized-and-fuzzy magnet that I bought in Disneyworld.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
They do have concrete yard art. I kind of like concrete yard art, but they are living the cliche.
Ah, to truly complete the cliche, the house would have to be a double wide.
You have just described about half the county where I am help captive. (Bonus points if the yard art are animals. Double bonus points if the animals are wearing clothing.)

Bonus points if the yard art are animals.
It's a horse with a cart and a chicken, so two points.

Because nothing says "art" like geese in bonnets marching across a yard.

No clothes, but in the picture the cart is obscured by the tank top draped over the fence. I guess that doesn't really count.

Wow. You can tell AIG wasn't a PR firm.
Less than a week after the federal government committed $85 billion to bail out AIG, executives of the giant AIG insurance company headed for a week-long retreat at a luxury resort and spa, the St. Regis Resort in Monarch Beach, California, Congressional investigators revealed today. [..] AIG documents obtained by Waxman's investigators show the company paid more than $440,000 for the retreat, including nearly $200,000 for rooms, $150,000 for meals and $23,000 in spa charges.

Failing in such an epic manner isn't easy work. These guys need a little relaxation.

Not for nothing but all that AIG stuff would have been booked months and months ago, so while the timing is awful and the cost is ridiculous by most standards - that type of retreat was probably normal for them and it's not like they planned it while the bailout money came through.
