Great PHOTO....Iowa greets Kerry, as he flies into Des Moines...

[diamond14]

Go Kerry !!!! Thanks, Iowa......



Mark McClain, an airline pilot and farmer, mowed ‘KERRY’ into his 40-acre field on the approach to a Des Moines Airport runway. Each letter is 600 feet tall and 400 feet wide.

Iowa does Rock and we will win up and down the ballots in Iowa due to absentee ballots.

17. I was born in MN and live there now, but grew up in NE Iowa in the

beautiful bluff country just west of the Mississippi. A prettier place could hardly be found...idyllic. Trout fishing, agate hunting, hiking, canoeing/tubing, autumn road trips around the boonies to see the leaves...fabulous.

5. That is incredible. BTW, does anyone know

how do farmers plow large-scale words or pictures into their fields? How do they keep spatially oriented? ... I was in an unbelievably complicated corn maize recently and I could not figure out how they had done this miracle.

8. Their equipment is computerized these days

There are programs that can produce mazes and all kinds of stuff. It's very cool, indeed :)

6. and it warms the cockles of my heart!

What ARE cockles?

[Bluebear]

7. They're next to your craw.

Wherever that is.

[kimchi]

19. Well, if you weren't PLASTIC,

maybe you'd know where your craw was! :evilgrin:

Thanks for making me laugh out loud. Another reminder of my mum tonight--she used the terms "craw" and "hide" for people, instead of animals. Weird. Maybe she's trying to tell me something.

9. It's tradition to do that in Cedar Rapids as well.

When a President comes into the Cedar Rapids airport, the student body of Prairie High School spells out his name on the football field which is not too far from the airport.

16. Just try and steal THIS yard sign, suckers!

Maybe we should all start mowing our yards (if you have one) and painting our houses with his name. It could turn into a fad that would attract a lot of pressl

Although, I guess the 'pukes could sneak in at night with ride-on lawn mowers.
