The question is, is this man, in fact, a fellow traveler of gnomedom? Did the Great Gnomish Conspiracy lead to this sign's removal, in an effort to obscure his gnomishness? Or was it simply riffing on his height? One can only wonder, but we'll see how and if this story develops.
Theatre posters proclaiming 'We await you, merry gnome' were taken down from a Russian town shortly before a visit by the country's diminutive president, according to a local website.Now, I should point out that, at 5'4", Medvedev is far taller than even the tallest of gnomes. So, clearly, the Russians are having a bit of sport at his expense. Still, you can see that whoever posted the sign is at least aware of how annoying gnomes are, with the tartly-rendered "merry gnome" comment.
