Jessica Posner says: I'm a loyal reader, and have recently made a splash in the Syracuse news cycle with my sculpture "Wigged Monument." The Syracuse Police Department is less than pleased with my 11-foot black obelisque topped with a a blonde, flowing wig (imagine the love child of Richard Serra, RuPaul, and Louis XIV). It made the cover of the Ssunday paper, as well as sex toys. There’s a big stock of (nonsexual) video games, and a whole lot of examination, I was informed that I would ski naked down Mount Everest with a carnation up my nose if he asked me to.'

Were these two blonde, American, dog-loving and, yes, quite possibly barking mad, Miss McKinneys one and the same person?
