Default Attention Road Closures !

It's pretty unlikely that you, or any of us for that matter, will be traveling thru or across South Dakota this upcoming weekend (10/09 – 10/11), but just in case: I-90 will be closed Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. They are hauling a 200 ton lump of coal from Pennsylvania to South Dakota so they can add President Obama to Mount Rushmore

Reminds me of an old Johnny Cash song.......


"I'm just an old chunk of coal
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day
I'm gonna glow and grow
'Til I'm so blue pure perfect
I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face
I'm gonna kneel and pray everyday
Lest I should become vain along the way
I'm just an old chunk of coal, now Lord
But I'm gonna be a diamond some day

I'm gonna learn the best way to walk
I'm gonna search and find a better way to talk
I'm gonna spit and polish my old rough-edged self
Til I get rid of every single flaw
I'm gonna be the World's best friend
I'm gonna go around shaking everybody's hand
Hey, I'm gonna be the cotton-pickin' Rage of the Age
I'm gonna be a diamond some day"

I think ya may have gotten some bad info ( a decoy of misinfromation?)- it wasnt 10/9/09 but 10/09/10.(and not I-90 )

It wasnt a 200 tons lump of coal- it was a 300 ton block of milk chocolate( the PA location is the tipoff )( the extra 100 tons is for the ears-3 -1 ratio)


Yes the gov we know is quit wastefull & does things back ssa words quite a bit but .-( the largest coal mine in the US is just west of there in Wy - not very far & a surface mine -why get it from PA?-

Because its chocolate, not coal & no matter what ray nagan or anyone else says- hershey , pa is chocolate city- not new orleans.

"They" wanted it as real to life as possible ( he is not black- but light brown( why they used a milk chocolate formula & not the darker with extra % of coco solids & less sugar mix to)

I would have pictures but 2 black( not brown) suburbans stoped me after i took a few quick picks & took my camara( they sent it back, along with a box of chocolates) ( suppose to be a suprize unvailing in the spring i think?) .( but we did chat for a few min after that at least)

There using a speical chocolate( a stockpile of military surplus from the 80,s they forgot "they " had- so it wont melt at higher temps-( as i said "they" wanted it as real to life as possible but - obama- vetod that & it being made- hollow & filled with bullcrap)
.................................................. ............................

The "Congo Bar" / Desert Bar
In the late 1980s, the US Army's Natick Labs created a new high-temperature chocolate (dubbed the "Congo Bar" by researchers) that could withstand heat in excess of 60 degrees Celsius (140 degrees Fahrenheit).
During Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm, Hershey's Chocolate was the major manufacturer, shipping 144,000 bars to American troops in the southwest Asia theater. While Army spokesmen said the bar's taste was good, troop reactions were mixed and the bar was not put into full production.
Since the war ended before Hershey's stores of the experimental bar were shipped, the remainder of the production run was packaged in a "desert camo" wrapper and was dubbed the Desert Bar. It proved a brief novelty but Hershey declined to make more after supplies ran out.

I dont think i have to worry any about the PC police on this or any national secrets being told.

( i might get me a pc police scanner for future posts though- just incase )

HNI received a complaint on this topic. On one level, the idea of Obama's likeness being carved out of coal does present a certain degree of racist type thinking. The use of coal, however, is a clever political commentary since Obama has been so adamantly opposed to coal and champions green energy. At this time of year, the use of coal could also refer to the idea that Obama's disdain for many people with phony tax cuts is akin to Santa Claus putting coal in one's stocking. I'm sure other members could come up with even more analogies or interpretations.

The idea of criticizing a sitting president on this board is nothing new. Members have criticized every sitting president since this board began and then pretty much every president since Herbert Hoover. Their actions and decisions are all fair game for comments.

I'm not going to guess at the original poster's intentions in creating this topic or for anybody else that posted on it. As pointed out above, some interpretations of this topic are within the rules. Some, however, violate the rules and require enforcement. I am locking this topic up with an explanation so that members will know what happened and a topic doesn't just disappear into cyberspace without explanation. If you have questions, concerns or comments, please PM me.
