 Holabird AdvocateProviding all the news we see fit to print since 2002!Saturday, September 21, 2002 VOL. I Issue 9L E.E. HINKLE TAKES A BREAK FROM "BOOST" Holabird centanarian E.E. Hinkle has given up "Boost" for a while in favor of a lunch at "Boost time" (3pm). Most agree that this is a good decision. A "wait and see" attitude is prevailing. He is eating well, and that is a good sign. FIREFIGHTERS ENDORSE STEPHANIE HERSETH FOR CONGRESS It was announced by International Association of Fire Fighters general president Harold Schaitberger that the Professional Fire Fighters of South Dakota (PFFSD) have, at their convention in Watertown S.D, unanimously endorsed Stephanie Herseth in her Race for the state's at large U.S. House seat. Steve Dirksen President of PFFSD said "Stephanie Herseth is a bright new star in South dakota politic, and I'm delighted to formally endorse her candidicy on behalf of fire fighters in this state. Stephanie will bea hard working and conscientious representitive for the issues that matter to fire fighters and and all South Dakotans in Congress. She represents the future of this state and the firefighters are behind her 100% ON THE ROAD AGAIN Hiram Gonagan Mary Hinkle left the Ponderosa at the very early hour of 5 o'clock this morning to get to the wedding of Jaime Daken to Kevin Hansen. Along the way she picked up Larry and Bonnie Nickleson as well as Andy and Tracy Lennick.The ceremony will commence at 4 o'clock this afternoon. According to Holabird Advocate Publisher Jerry Hinkle, She will start for home Sunday when she's sober enough to drive. SCORE ONE FOR THE GOOD GUYS by Jerry Hinkle, Special to the Holabird Advocate You know, My cousin Kevin is a really swell guy. He's athletic without being labeled a "dumb jock". He's smart (after all he reads the Holabird Advocate) but not so smart that he has to make all those around him feel dumb. He's the life of any party and he's single, BUT NOT FOR LONG Kevin will be married later on today to a young lady that I don't know all that well. I understand she is some sort of arobic fitness trainer, so she must be athletic. She's marrying Kevin so,yes, she is smart as well. I am not going to their wedding. Not because of them, but because I'd rather not deal with seeing all of my other relatives at this festive occasion. Sooner or later one or more of those well meaning relatives will ask that most dreaded of all questions "Why aren't you Married yet?". Ordinarily it wouldn't bother me, but at this function I was almost certainly going to run into "Her", and I don't believe I can stand all that right now. Someday maybe, not now. It's wonderful that some people bother to get married in this day and age. My brother Doug sure hasn't seen the need to do that. He's got a few good reasons to get married, yet he doesn't. The Leap of faith that Kevin and Jaime are taking should be an inspiration to us all. In this world, we aren't given much hope for the future. We're told "Nice guys finish last". If anyone can prove that statement false, those two can, and they will. You will find very few people as nice as they are, so don't even try.
