Wow.

Apparently, a massive statue of comic strip veteran Dennis the Menace was stolen from a park in Monterey, California, some time last Wednesday. The statue is three feet tall and weighs 125 pounds, and was commissioned by the late Hank Ketcham, the cartoon character's creator. The city is offering a $5000 reward for its safe return.

You know... I'm not a big Dennis fan, but I gotta say: that is a pretty cool statue, and it would certainly brighten up any Halloween party. Hopefully it will be returned once the holiday is over. [Source]
