Ridiculous monuments in Lithuania

Several Lithuanian municipalities have recently launched initiatives for erecting new monuments, a trend the liberal daily Lietuvos Rytas finds highly laughable: "The deputy mayor of Kaunas has demanded that a commemorative plaque for the Ukranian pre-war partisan Jevhen Konovalec be hung in Lithuania's second-largest city. However he doesn't know exactly where Konovalec lived during his stay in Kaunas, or even how he was of any help to the city. Perhaps the deputy mayor simply wants to adorn his house with a pretty plaque? And there are even more original attempts to render eternal the memory of famous personalities in Lithuania. ... Be that as it may, the city of Rokiskis has outdone all the others. The mayor of this provincial town has decided to erect a monument to John Lennon, the co-founder of the legendary music group The Beatles. Because to his mind the name of the town [Rokiskis] is intimately connected with rock music ['Rokas' in Lithuanian]."
