Rocks of ages: This week's drama involving the house-sized boulder teetering above Pacific Coast Highway may have sounded like a rerun to longtime residents of Malibu.
A quarter-century ago, another boulder loomed above the highway, threatening drivers until it was pulled down. But that wasn't the end of the story.
Artist Brett-Livingstone Strong obtained a chip off the old rock and carved it into the shape of John Wayne's head (see photo). The Duke's noggin was displayed in the forecourt of Mann's Chinese Theater for a while. Then it was purchased for a reported $1 million by an Arizona businessman, who donated it to a school in Texas.
I wish the sculpture were here during the Oscar ceremonies. Bring back the head of John Wayne!
