An Orchard Lake man -- OK, he's not just any man; he's infamous for employing lots of strippers, being shot twice and for starring in an upcoming reality show on HBO/Cinemax -- has erected a large sculpture of the middle-finger salute. In his backyard.

The sculpture is almost 12 feet high. A spotlight illuminates it at night.

The man is Alan Markovitz, longtime impresario of metro Detroit topless clubs, whose adventures are scheduled to be aired on the national cable outlet this winter on a show titled "Topless Prophet." He was the subject of a Deadline Detroit profile last month.

Markovitz recently moved into a lakefront home in Orchard Lake, and he spent $7,000 on the digital objet d'art. It's made of a bronze-like material.

but still hilarious!

Part of me loves it that guys like this are still around.

(As long as they don't move next door.)
