As much as we never wanted to hear the phrase, “What’s she thinking?” ever again, it seems somewhat appropriate for this installment of This Week in Stupid. Shouldn’t the people in charge of things know better? If only.

Oak Park native Bob Newhart will be honored by TV Land and the City of Chicago with a life-sized sculpture commemorating his role as Dr. Robert Hartley from The Bob Newhart Show. The bronze sculpture will be located on the sidewalk at 430 N. Michigan (right next to Chicagoist's office!), the very building that is seen in the opening credits of the show, and will be unveiled next Tuesday. Newhart is expected to be on hand for the statue dedication event. In November, the statue will settle permanently at Navy Pier.
