Light posting until later this evening or tomorrow

By -
I'm going light today, as I'm heading to Brookings tonight after work a day early to surprise my wife on her birthday tomorrow. So, light posting ahead.

Although, I do have a few topics I'm writing on my plate from things I've read and heard. So watch for these in the coming days:
Klaudt in newspaper; calls Amendment D, "revenue neutral."

Is there a chance another commissioner could leave the PUC?

Why is the Rapid City Journal selectively removing articles about a certain politician?

What in the hell is the deal with Pennington County and their $350 absentee ballot list?
Stay tuned.

PP,

It seems that if you wanted to keep a secret from your wife you wouldn't post it on the internet.

Unless, your wife is the only person in the state that doesn't read the War College.

By the way, thanks for coming to the Jarrod Johnson event in Pierre.
Your coverage was appreciated.

A couple thoughts -

1 - Obviously, your wife must not read War College, or else you just made a pretty key error.

2 - Which PUC commissioner is talking about leaving? I am on the edge of my seat! And a few days ago, you alluded to a move to abolish the PUC altogether - where did that story go?

I am on the edge of my seat about the Rapid City Journal. Would love to know what's up with that.

Mike and Anon -

I know politics.

And my wife. She hadn't have a chance to read it before I got here.

And I'm working on that RCJ thing.

A note from Benedict Ar... Sorry. A note from Stan Adelstein why he thinks you should vote Democrat this year.

(Click on letter to enlarge) And while it may not be printed at taxpayer expense, I don't see a disclaimer, either. When they hold the special session (supposedly at the end of November) , since he's left them already, I think his colleagues should expel him from the caucus. Sure. At that point it's only going to be symbolic. But since he's already said he's running again in the near future, sometimes symbolism is enough.

It's about health, not potential promiscuity.

As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on
