 Holabird AdvocateProviding all the news we see fit to print since 2002!Monday, November 21, 2005 VOL. IV Issue 11N Holabird Advocate Cracks 10K Early We were hoping for "10K by New Years Day" but in the tradition of overflow, our little Newsblog hit the target today at 7:12 am Holabird Time. Maybe we'll have 11K by New Years Day. We can always do better. It only took us a little less than 4 years to get 10,000 Readers. Not bad for a Newsblog in a town with a population of 38. Weaning Over for Ponderosa Holabird Advocate Publisher, Jerry Hinkle, has been a little lax in cranking out new issues of our little Newsblog because as we all know by now, the Ponderosa is a real live working ranch that requires real live work sometimes. It took a while, but all of the Ponderosa calves have been weaned and given their winter shots. Helping the Hinkles at various times were Larry Nickleson, Ron LaFourtune, and his Railroad buddy Tim, the deer hunter. Now comes the fun part: fattening up the calves to feed a hungry beef-eating world. So far, according to the Holabird Advocate poll, 60% of you Readers with a preference want South Dakota Beef. So keep eating, they'll raise more! George Kennedy Healing Nicely Harold Hinkle reports that his sister, Mavis Kennedy, has managed to get her husband, George Kennedy, back home and resting comfortably after knee surgery. It will be a while before George is 100%, but he can already go up and down 3 steps. Before too long, he'll be a kicker for the Broncos. Deer Hunters on the Look-out With a 30 point buck on the loose in the Holabird area, Deer hunters from all over are combing the countryside with visions of venison for the thanksgiving table. Ron Lafourtune's Railroad buddy, Tim, is among that number. He and his hunting party have 12 deer licenses, and only 6 tags filled so far.
