Water-spouting nude statue fails to hit right note with Austrian mayor

“VIENNA (AFP) – The mayor of Salzburg was rather piqued at the sight of a water-spouting statue of a naked man unveiled on the eve of the Austrian city’s annual music festival[…]Local inhabitants and visitors were more amused than shocked by the statue and accused the mayor of hypocrisy.”

What?!? I think there’s a huge difference between a tasteful nude like David or Venice Demilo, and a guy drinking his own urine.
