 the monkey chased the elephant down the empty highway he finally cornered him in the back lot of an abandoned walmart you have cost me a lot, said the monkey and i hate to do this to you but you have too much value what is cost, asked the elephant and what is value as the monkey brought the ruby encrusted statue of the virgin (or maybe it was vishnu or lenin or sarah palin) down on his head the elephants last thought was but i'm bigger than he is  |

ahhh... yes... this is the value system of this 'brave new world' we live in...
who owns the mace of power and uses it?
it can be religion... it can be any ideology... or media...
your big/greatness never counts as you don't have that mace... or you DON'T want to use it...
the race doesn't always go to the fastest, or the prize to the strongest, or (unfortunately for the elephant) the ruby encrusted statue to the most deserving head (sarah palin's)
;)
I liked how you juxtaposed the sacred and profane ( and absurd)as well as the eerie and foreboding .... I was wondering if/when the other character from your visual montage was going to show up.... however, I imagine I have not seen or heard the last of the monkey or the elephant....
