Speculation abounds regarding the true nature of the construction project at the Hartsdale train station's "De Santi" Plaza. Rumors began to spread after workers apparently fled the site earlier this week and have not returned. Some have wondered whether obscure ancient rites gone awry under the garish light of this week's full moon terrified the crew. Passers-by then began to observe a vague resemblance between the in-process plaza, purportedly designed to display a Veterans Memorial, and altars devoted by the ancients to human and animal sacrifices.
We believe, however, that these ominous portents are merely coincidences. We've found no evidence - as we've heard suggested - that the Town Council members will reveal themselves at the plaza dedication as shaman-priests of a ghastly mythical spirit whose unquenchable thirst can only be sated with human blood. Admittedly, the throats of random, unsuspecting passengers alighting at train station would provide a convenient and abundant harvest, but such rituals have gone out of favor in Greenburgh in living memory.
Finally, our inquiries have found no evidence that the retaining walls will be inscribed with the timeless, unspeakable summons to the horrific demigod, Cthulhu,
"Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn"

I still think they are going with the sacrificial altar. After all the memorial is being capped off by a tombstone monument. What a good way for the town to spend $250,000 of other people's money.
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous -- the pools and tennis courts at Veterans are not being maintained, and the Town spends money on this? What lack of judgment!
