 Holabird AdvocateProviding all the news we see fit to print since 2002!Saturday, August 13, 2005  VOL. IV Issue 8J Jazzercise With "Sister Kate" The Ditty Bops are proud to announce that "Sister Kate" one of the songs off their debut CD was just to the national Jazzercise Program. Finally, an exercise routine that Holabird Advocate Publisher, Jerry Hinkle can endorse. "Keloland says that you need a buddy to exercise with!," Jerry was heard to say. "And if Ms. Amanda was my buddy, I think I could do it." When asked if he thought he could keep up with Ms. Amanda, who is pictured left admiring a photo of herself as a brunette, Jerry said, "I'll die trying!" Of course that is what we were afraid of. Still, it is nice to see Jerry interested in getting healthier. Perhaps a nice beginners jazzercise class would fit the bill. Anyone in the Holabird area that knows of one might want to let us know. Who's the Caretaker Here? Last night, it was raining pretty hard and fast. Mary Hinkle thought she'd better call her son, Jerry Hinkle, at the Ponderosa Pines Old Age Assistance Home, and have him shut all the windows so it didn't get too wet. She figured it would ring twice before he'd answer, but it kept on ringing. It wasn't until E.E. Hinkle got out of bed and answered the phone that she got through. After relaying to him the message, he yelled out, "JERRY, SHE SAID TO CLOSE ALL THE WINDOWS!" That woke him up, just like it was the good old days again. After he closed all the windows, it stopped raining. Turned out they only got .12 of an inch of rain at the Ponderosa anyway. Jerry made up for his "sleeping on the job" by making E.E. "The best breakfast I had all day!" Well, you can't expect E.E. to do everything around there now, can you? Nemecs Back From Vacation Nick, Mary Jo and Brigette Nemec went on a little adventure to Colorado. They had lots of fun from the sound of things. They even took a white water raft trip. Mary Jo reports that they managed to stay in the boat. All of us at the Holabird Advocate think that raft trip was Brigette's idea. We can see her trying that, but not her parents. Sounds like they all enjoyed it though. Anna and Erin Nemec stayed behind to take care of things at the Nemec Ranch. They must have done a super job. No complaints so far. If they had any trouble, they never called the Ponderosa for help. Maybe they did, but Jerry was asleep or something. Welcome back Home! Veronica Mars Report by Jerry Hinkle Holabird Advocate Publisher Well, CBS had four episodes of Veronica Mars on Friday night. I heard all 4, but only saw 2 (the TV picture wasn't to good the first week). One thing is for sure, I am not the target audience for this show. But, since Kristen Bell, who plays the title role, was born on July 18, I wanted to see what it was all about. The show was hard to follow even with the picture. One thing is for sure, the Veronica character is unlike anything I've ever seen. The language was hard to take, given it was on at 7 pm on a Friday, but nothing I haven't heard from own my teen-age nieces. Bell, at 25 is older than the character she portrays, yet she conveys a teen angst that even I remember well from my own growing up. Of course, I didn't have 10% of the trouble Veronica has. As for whether or not she's a good role model for today's teen girl, parents will have to decide that for themselves. Veronica is not perfect, but then none of us are. In the future, I may watch it if KELO runs it again, but I wouldn't get a dish to see it regularly. It was an interesting way to kill an hour.
