Once the video of this forum is up on the web, I will link it, should be in a few days. I did not attend, so all I know is what was in the Gargoyle;

The reforms include:
Capping state spending at 3 percent or the rate of inflation, whichever is lower, something Heidepriem has long pushed for in Pierre. Heidepriem contends that South Dakota cannot sustain its current average growth of 5.5 percent over the past eight years.
The implementation of across the board cuts in [...]
I have written about Jeff before, this is a must attend. I have to work late that night, but hope to catch up to the group later. Please convince him to come down to Touch of Europe to jam.
[...]Like this is some sort of surprise;
Gov. Mike Rounds has appointed Kristin Conzet, the daughter of a business partner of his, to replace Republican state Rep. Brian Dreyer of Rapid City, who resigned earlier this fall because of his pending deployment with the National Guard to Afghanistan.
Because, you know, [...]
But he doesn’t seem to be to happy about it;
“I don’t know what his motivation was for taking us on, but I would hope that we won’t see a lot of Daily Kos-inspired amendments in the future coming from him,” said South Dakota [...]
This is an interesting list, to say the least;
The Sioux Falls City Council strongly encourages the legislature to enact enabling legislation which allows municipalities to levy a local option tax, to raise funds for a specified purpose, to include a sunset clause, and to be voted on by the citizens. The [...]

Before you get all worked up over what PG has to say, you must realize, I detect a bit of sarcasm;
City government has not served us well. A higher sales tax is proposed. Our homes have lost value, but real estate taxes are the same.
With home-rule government, the mayor [...]

The city of Sioux Falls, once again, is starting to crow about how they are saving taxpayer’s money;
On Tuesday, city officials opened bids for the project and learned that building the new span will cost $8.4 million – about $1.6 million below what the city estimated.
Really, except for this [...]
From the Gargoyle Leader;
Sioux Falls Transit has a new name. Sam – or Sioux Area Metro – will start appearing on the side of city buses. “We feel it’s going to be a new beginning to our fantastic little system,” said Karen Walton, Sam general manager. It will take about [...]

I have often said I support Kermit as mayor because of his honesty, something that Mr. BrownKnows obviously knows nothing about. This comment is a prime example of that.
Brown said some thanked him for not running a float.
“I thought about it,” said Brown, who is on [...]

As the hawks circle around Obama, drowning out any pacifist voice, Keith wonders why someone like Gen. McChrystal is given so much credence, a question that the Obama administration should have spent some of that [...]

Once again, Sarhoid Palin proves to be an idiot.
Sarah Palin arrived in North Carolina Sunday by way of Asheville. She was slated to have a much-touted dinner with Franklin Graham and his father Billy. While this is a video made by a fan (so pardon the drippiness) it does [...]
Ah, but another example of the special interests in Sioux Falls getting a free pass;
Two political action committees that donated to City Council candidates in the 2008 election filed late campaign finance reports. But neither has paid fines, prompting questions about what, if anything, should be done.
Well, I am no [...]
While I think it is great that all of a sudden Rowenhorst and Munson are concerned about saving taxpayers money , this couldn’t be more suspicious. Remember the last time Dave did things in secret? Does the $1.5 million dollar, $3 million dollar [...]
EggBert Family & Friend 2008 Thankful List:
On this wonderful Thanksgiving Day, my family and friends want to wish you all a glorious, utopical, crisis-free Holiday of love, food, and football (don’t watch the news today, because nothing important happens on Turkey Day!). Each family member submitted their short list of what they are [...]

This is a cover design I did for Sioux Falls historical author Wayne Fanebust. I think this is his 7th(?) book. Wayne’s best work is the bibliography he wrote about R.F. Petigrew.
He will have a book signing soon at Zandbroz for his new book.

I had to laugh, then cry, at this promotional poster for the Winter Wonderland at Falls Park, saying it is ‘FREE’. Hardly, it was estimated by the SF Parks department that the labor and decorations cost about $50,000 in 2008, that does not include electricity. The display [...]
After reading this letter, I don’t know whether to comb my hair or shoot myself?
Human religion denies holiness and ignores the omnipotent, personal agency of the Holy Spirit. It is a poor, pale, sickly thing born of the union of the heart of the world with [...]
While I disagree with this parent group’s intentions (shortening the school year), I agree 100% with putting this issue to a vote. It is blatantly obvious that Homan and the School Board are inept in solving problems and listening to parents.
