Kerhonkson's Gnome Chomsky loses Guinness record

Long has the 13-and-a-half-foot-tall statue at Homegrown Mini Golf and Kelder's Farm on Route 209 reigned supreme as the world's tallest garden gnome. But no longer, says the Times Herald-Record:

Now, according to Guinness World Records, Chomsky has been out-talled by not one but two newcomers: a 15-footer from Iowa State University and an even taller 17-foot, 8-inch fiberglass model from Poland.

A few of Chomsky's fans took to Photoshop and cranked out ideas for giving him a few extra feet of height. The Daily Freeman has pictures.
