Gargoyles!

Everybuddy, I have a skerry story to tell you today!
Here I was, relaxing next to my gargoyle friend. This is a nice gargoyle. You can tell on account of the flowers he is holding.
Suddenly, I sensed an evil presence!
I do not know what caused this creepy feeling!
Maybe it was just my imagination....

    Hello Daisy!

    We think Harley is about to enlighten you since he is a font of useful information. He is about to tell you that the statue is actually called a "Grotesque" although it is a common mistake to call it a Gargoyle.
    In architecture, a gargoyle is a carved stone grotesque with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building. Preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls is important because running water erodes the mortar between the stone blocks. A trough is cut in the back of the gargoyle and rainwater typically exits through the open mouth.
    Yours is definitely a Grotesque! And a very nice one at that!

    Milo and Alfie xx

    PS: The term originates from the French gargouille, originally "throat" or "gullet". Latin gurgulio, gula, gargula ("gullet" or "throat") and similar words derived from the root gar, "to swallow", which represented the gurgling sound of water!

    Uh oh, I have the same creepy feeling as you do.

    I read Milo and Alfie's comment which is verry interesting. Maybe Harley will be a grotesgue too, though IO don't think he is very grotesque today.

    Yes, Harley could probably explain it ALL to you.....

    By the way, in Japan, they tell scary (ghost) stories in the summer to help people "cool down"!!!!

    Yup, someone is sneaking up to you. Watch out. Maybe the gargoyle will protect you from that silly Harley. He does seem to always be around, isn't he.

    Harley would need to grow some horns to be convincingly evil. Maybe you could help him with that Daisy! Mwahaha.

    The publicist has a sweet one too named Dedo. The male person bought it for her in Vancouver, Canada and carried it back for her all the way to New Jersey. And then they took it with them in their trailer adventures all over the USA. It's now in the yurt.

    She loves her Dedo
