Earl who??

From JMcAndrew:

Are we supposed to know who this person is that has a giant memorial outhouse topped with a giant statue? It appears to be more like a mausoleum made out of stone.

Indeed…and no, Tha Goog doesn’t know who Earl J. Suggins was, either.

This editor’s guess is that this falls into the “This is vaguely silly and therefore funny because I have to turn in a cartoon for tomorrow and I got nuttin’ else” category.

    It makes me think of the John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant in Danbury, Connecticut.

    @Mark: Grand Forks, Minnesota, did the same thing to Dave Barry. Usually they get named after some locally-disliked politician but every now and then a comedian gets the honor. I don’t think Mr. Suggins is a real person, unfortunately, which would have elevated the joke.
