 Holabird AdvocateProviding all the news we see fit to print since 2002!Friday, January 16, 2004 VOL. III Issue 1L FERRIS TRIP TO WASHINGTON A SUCCESS Ken and Joyce Ferris made it to Pasco, Washington at about 8pm last night Holabird time. According to Sandy Soulek, her parents were none the worse for wear. To paraphrase Robert Redford, They got Joyce to Sandy's house, now what? All of us at the Holabird Advocate have a feeling both Joyce and Sandy are in for quite an adventure. HINKLES PARTY IN PIERRE Noel Pothast threw a Birthday party for her oldest daughter, Jaimie, at the Pizza Ranch in Pierre tonight. Harold and Mary were in attendence, mostly out of guilt for missing Cade's party earlier this month. Jerry Hinkle was not invited, as he was also snubbed for Cade's Party. "Everyone knows that I take care of Grandad", said the erstwhile Holabird Advocate Publisher. "I would have liked to have gone, since Jaimie is my oldest niece, and the Heirhead to my throne. Grandad would not go, however. Despite his love of pizza, It seems he refuses to go to fancy parties thrown in upscale resturaunts like the Pizza Ranch and China Buffet." E.E. HINKLE AWAITS WARMUP Despite the January thaw, 101 year old E.E. Hinkle claims it's not warm enough for him to venture out. He has expressed a desire to go to Pierre when it is warm enough for him to go. No word on just exactly how warm that is, however. SOUTH DAKOTA LEGISLATURE IS IN SESSION It has long been speculation that the legendary January thaw spoke of in Dakota lore is around the time that the Legislators gather at the Statehouse. It's said the hot air they produce causes the thaw. Believe it or not, it looks like that is exactly what has happened this year, That's just a coincedence, of course. (or is it?) Among hot button issues being decided is whetherore not to eliminate the sales tax on food. This, after it was decided to double said tax at the local level in last years session. Also there is the establishment of, and funding for, an underground laboratory in the former Homestake gold mine. These are issues that the Holabird Advocate intends to follow, and when events warrant, report on the progress or regress of those issues.
