Nut Weevils Don't Get No Respect!
My friend Neroli challenged me to come up with a monument of equivalent beauty for the humble Acorn weevil since it is such a neglected and unappreciated bug. I am alas unequal to the task. The Alabama Bollweevil monument is just SO incredible, but here is what I could come up with: (Feel free to click on the image to enlarge it to its full glory!)

Oh, bless you!---did you hear me laughing all the way from MN?
One might accuse me of bias, but I prefer your monument. That opinion seems valid to me as one cannot observe a single person posing to be photographed with the other monument!
In any event, I must wipe both the tears from my eyes and spray on the screen of the iced tea I sprayed on it by laughing so abruptly!
Hooray for the Nut Weevil!
You have met the challenge and created a very impressive monument!!
That's the silliest thing I've ever seen! Is there a desktop version available?
Min- I think it would make a great ash tray!
This needs to go on a plinth in Trafalgar Square.
I'm really not so sure how Lord Nelson would feel about that, but it might be the proper venue! Somehow I think it would be happier surrounded by trees!
LOVE IT!
weevils! no way. no way no way no way.
isnt' it bad enough that we have mosquitoes the size of horses, and flies the size of, well, also of horses, and wasps and bees that get in our drinks every august when we want to eat outside?
and now weevils, too??
we don't need a monument. we need a gigantic swatter.
