    My sister passed this email on to me. 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 it's character many times.

    A few months back, the rock received it's latest paint job, and since then it has been left completely undisturbed. It's quite an impressive sight.
    Click on the link below and check for yourself. 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.

    Did anyone here have the band Freedom Jam come to their school in the '80s?

    It's probably just a matter of time before some punkass kids deface it. :(
