THE ROCK
I'm told that there is a huge rock near a gravel pit on Hwy. 25 in rural Iowa. For generations kids have painted slogans, names, and obscenities on this rock, changing its character many times. A few months back the rock received its latest paint job and since then it has been left completely undisturbed. It's quite an impressive sight. Be sure to scroll down and check out the multiple photos (all angles) of the rock. I thought the flag was draped over the rock, but it's not. It's actually painted on the rock too.

That is beautiful! Congratulations to the artist for a piece well rendered.
I hope they take some prudent measures to protect it from the inevitable Anti-War nut case crowd and their blind irrationality though.

I give it 4 hours before lurking democrats read this and go trash it. They would be trashed. And every jury in Iowa would give their attackers a parade and a medal.
There is a reason why Liberals "fly over" those areas. They know what would happen to them if they drove through it.

Mia T, You are a Prince/Princess. I was not sure if you received my forwarded URL in order to post this. I would have posted it myself but I am not too HTML fluent.
(We old mainframe AS400 / OS400 / SQL / RPG / Cobol folks are dumber than sand).
LOL
Thanks again.
