 Holabird AdvocateProviding all the news we see fit to print since 2002!Thursday, August 07, 2003 VOL. II Issue 8D HOLABIRD YOUTHS TESTED FOR WEST NILE VIRUS It may have been just a tad premature to claim that Holabird is not being effected by the dreaded West Nile Virus. Two of Holabird's young people are suspected of having the virus and are awaiting test results. If either of the children or anyone else test positive for this we will let you, the Reader, know. JOYCE FERRIS MAY HAVE WEST NILE Mary Hinkle Took her sister-in-law, Joyce Ferris to the Highmore Clinic this morning where a battery of tests were run. It is suspected that because Joyce has four of the six signs of West Nile Virus, perhaps that is the reason for her current setback. The test results will be in tomrrow, then she'll know for sure. Joyce has lived on chicken broth, crackers and 7up since Tuesday morning. She has taken only her arthitis medicine since yesterday afternoon, but hasn't had those back spasms like before. Joyces latest round of trouble started yesterday morning, when the smell of Mary cooking made Joyce sick to her stomach. WHO ISN'T RUNNING FOR CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR by Jerry Hinkle, Special to the Holabird Advocate Politics used to be a spectator sport in the Peoples Republic of California. Lately it seems that everyone and his dog is running for the Governor's office. Arnold Schartzenegger is running, so is Gary Coleman. There are also strippers, porn actresses, hippies, and even a few crazies thrown in for good measure to join the fray. Looks like I'm the only one not running. Am I missing something here? Why are all these people running? There are so many candidates that they are signing each other petitions. I wonder if these people realize the full scope that the job of Governor of California represents. From what I hear, none of the candidates could possibly be worse than the guy already in the Governor's chair, but then I could be wrong about that.
