Butter Cows and Butter Superman

Okay...this has absolutely nothing to do with information security or privacy or compliance (at least as far as I can tell), but I thought it was pretty cool that CNN actually did a story about the butter sculptures (sorry, but there is a short commercial first in this link that I couldn't figure out how to get rid of...you can find it on the CNN site in their recent video clips) done yearly here at the Iowa State Fair (I live "just a ways outside of Des Moines").

If you ever get the chance to visit the Iowa State Fair you will have a <bleepity bleep> great time!  :)  It truly is a way to get away from all your work stuff, mind, body and soul, and just have fun for a while.  But, know that there is *SO* much more than butter here!  I can't do it justice by trying to explain...it has to be experienced...

BTW, the butter Superman is being done because he (Brandon Routh in this summer's Superman Returns movie), was born and raised in the Des Moines area.

Viva la Iowa! 

Okay...back to work stuff...

:)
