Ya gotta shake your head at misguided groups like the GGLF who think they’re actually doing a good deed by setting these garden gnomes free. They don’t realize that the poor things have been standing around growing moss for so long, they don’t remember the tune to hi ho hi ho and they certainly don’t remember where it is they’re supposed to go.
Who knows…maybe they’re in fact experimental life forms who have escaped the clutches of the mad scientists at the Human Gnome Project. I’ve heard reports that they spent a lot of time at Burning Man this summer.
