...How can you plant a flag in a fountain? Is it weighted down by a heavy rock or something?

What ground, though? There's only the paved Town Square, or the water in the fountain. There's no natural Earth here - I should know.

Inserts flagpole into waterspouting gullet of some nearby fountain statuary. Unfurls flag and salutes.

At a safe distance Red Dog starts to do a victory dance in excitement and anticipation.

Of course the best way to ensure that a fountain doesn't explode is to...
*produces large sack marked 'Maggies Farm'"
...stuff live poultry down it!!
*begins to insert chickens into fountain*
This'll make it right as rain. I mean right as not-rain.

I'm not sure that a foul-filled fountain will look quite as romantic and peaceful.
Besides which, having several birds about will attract vast numbers of s. I mean Vast.

Hmmmmmm..not necessarily a bad thing.
*requisitions M60 machine gun and digs fox-in-socks-hole*
Here's a way to have some fun
Here's a way to not be glum
When those cats come at a run
You can blow them all to Kingdom Come!!
I sure hope the good doctor doesn't Suess me.
