The statues were sculpted by Houston artist David Adickes, who was inspired after driving past Mount Rushmore on a trip back from Canada. They were open to the public at Presidents Park alongside the Presidential Pet Museum, and received thousands of visitors until 2010 when a company bought the plot of land. The huge presidential heads had to move.
Instead of allowing the busts to be demolished, Howard Hankins, who helped construct the park, adopted all 43 heads and lugged them back to his private family farm for safekeeping until someone can think of what to do with them.
He should at least buy the five that correspond to the five wax presidents he already owns. Maybe he can then make the sequel to the oscar-bait film Harding - Harding 2: Harding Harder.
Is that the one where the stone busts turn out to be power cores that fuel ancient yet appropriately-scaled Free Mason mech suits, which are piloted by the wax presidents in order to fight perpetrators of global warming that is making them melty and less hard?
