let me explain this:
first off, part of that foliage is a corn stalk, one of iowa's main resources
second, iowa has been having record breaking weather this summer.
i live in cedar rapids where in 1920, we set our flood record at 20ft. this summer, we broke that with a total of 31ft. people have lost their homes, their crops, their belongings.... everything...
we've had tornado after tornado... we are TIRED of rain! and before someone asks- we stay in iowa because this is home. we'll rebuild.
elsewize, how in tar'nation ar you citee slickerz gonna git yer corn an' pork iff'n we leave?
