Well damn! He put up the 500 cords of wood!

I noticed that. 64,000 cubic feet of firewood. That would heat my house for 100 years and that is 5800 heating degree days per year.

Then again you have to look at the market value of that much wood. If confiscated, it would pay a families obamacare bill for 20 years.

I think it was a typo. I hope it was.

I know a gent who was trapped in his attic during the breaching of the dikes in Walkeren in WWII. All he had were tulip bulbs set aside because of their great emergency value.

He sold tulips for diamonds. Gold was useless since the Germans were always looking for it. Hard to hide.

Firewood is probably worth something in urban areas after Obama shuts down electricity.

I just did quick price check. That’s also about $150,000 worth of firewood. We know he didn’t do it himself because the man hours would be off the charts.
