A little on the State of the SDBlogOSphere

By -
I didn't realize that Anne Lewis of Watershed: the Blog fame was a fellow Pierre resident for some reason. I need to get out of my cave and away from the world's messiest desk more.

It's probably not going to get much play after a while, but I'll add her other blog Pierre Governor Football to the blogfeeds just for fun.

Ever since I went to High School in Pierre 20+ years ago, I've wondered about this. Why would you nickname your team "the Governors?" It kind of kills the mascot ideas. What? Is the mascot a guy in a suit and power tie? What did the Washington Senators use as a mascot? It would be about the same, wouldn't it? Any Pierre readers care to enlighten me as to the origin of the name?

I also notice that Brock over at Right-to-life has been pretty prolific with his blogging efforts since he got started a couple weeks back. Abortion is usually too hot of a topic for many of us to touch on more than occasionally, and the pro-life/pro-choice deabte is his bread and butter. Are we going to see a blog from Planned Parenthood next ? And would we see constant flame wars between the two?

I'm still having glitches with Radioactive Chief and Black Marks on Wood Pulp in my blog feeds. I thought I had the problems licked, but I guess not. As always, show them the love, and click on their links.

Otherwise, if you see a SD related Blog I'm not covering, drop me a note and I'll try to add it.

Scott Heidepreim plays divide and conquer in today's Sioux Falls Argus Leader

By -
Scott Heidepreim had a guest column in today's Sioux Falls Argus Leader where he's doing his best to continue the Democrat's tactics of divide the GOP to conquer. It's pretty ironic, because to try to split the GOP, he's claiming that somehow, the "bad" House Republicans were working against a unified Senate where Republicans and Democrats skip and sing kumbaya as they hug each other and work together: * Senate Republicans, Senate Democrats and House Democrats were united in a sweeping and positive agenda for K-12 funding with an index factor, endorsed by the Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce. This index factor, for the first time, would link the idea that adequate education funding is a tool for economic development. The House Republicans killed the proposal. Our teachers are paid the least in the country. * Senate Republicans, Senate Democrats and House Democrats were united in support of early childhood development, a concept supported by the Federal R...
