I think I found this years ago, in my parents' garden in Connecticut.  I think it's supposed to decorate a potted plant.

One Cool Dude

File161

This is one cool dude.

I wasn't able to find out who he is, but if I had to guess I would say Mr. T.

I know what you're saying- If that's Mr. T, where are all his gold necklaces? From Wikipedia: 

"During his stint as a doorman, he would take jewelry from disorderly people and wear it himself as a testament to how well he performed his job as a bouncer. At one point, his gold chains, rings, and bracelets were worth about $300,000. It took him about an hour to put it on, and most nights he cleaned it in an ultrasonic cleaner although some nights he slept in it "to see how my ancestors, who were slaves, felt."

In 2005, Mr. T announced he would never wear his chains again saying, "No, T, you can never wear your gold again. It's an insult to God." He came to this decision after seeing the effects of Hurricane Katrina."

Natch.

Confession:  The first time I read that, I thought it meant he would sleep in the ultrasonic cleaner so that his necklaces would be clean.  Considering that it's Mr. T, I don't feel that's too far out of line.

Found  November 2006, in my laundry room
