This contest is fueled by the following news:
Builders in the German town of Gernrode, which is located in the Harz Mountains, have announced that they are nearing completion of the world's largest cuckoo clock made out of chocolate. The Halloren Chocolate factory, in Gernrode -- which is the oldest city in Germany -- together with the Harz Clock Factory indicated that they hoped to have the clock completed by the weekend. When done, the clock will be nine feet and two inches tall and a wooden frame. The casing will be made entirely of 265 pounds of pure chocolate. In the end, the clock is to be sold off in pieces for a charity during a festival on Sunday.
Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste Time waits for no one, no favours has he Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me Men, they build towers to their passing yes, to their fame everlasting Here he comes chopping and reaping, hear him laugh at their cheating And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me Drink in your summer, gather your corn The dreams of the night time will vanish by dawn And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
