This is a sculpture by <a href="www.Nancydoran.com" rel="nofollow"> Nancy Doran </A> called "Between a rock and a hard place," which is part of a <a href="http://www.nancydoran.com/hall1f.html#Start" rel="nofollow">sculpture garden </A> now on display at the University of California's Irvine campus. (update 5/21)... Which I have since removed from the site, pending <a href="http://almostgotit.wordpress.com/2007/05/21/copyright-violation-blogs-a-tricky-subject/" rel="nofollow">further contemplations</a> about copyright issues... I’m so glad you asked, rockyroadoflove!
