As referred to in the Argus Fluff article on the Herseth wedding - Here's one for those who aren't familiar with the song set to be played for the couple's first dance -

Someone out on You Tube has posted the song as recorded on TV back in 1967.

Groovy, man.

Pat,

In the interest of fair play, what was your wedding song?

Inquiring minds want to know...

Hey,
Ours was "Colour My World" ---Chicago. Married in 1978.

Of course we were both the same generation--I didn't marry Grandpa and have a song from the big band era.

O heck i don't recall our song. Maybe we didn't have a wedding song just in our honor. Opps. But then we were not married in SD though we live here now.
Is that a curse to the marriage???
Just kidding.

Do you suppose that all of us Brookings residents will get the chance to decorate the car and do all the fun things to their house in Brookings. I mean it is not supposed to be every day you get married!!
Just in fun of course.

I am sure we could all do this (decorate) in a non partisan way you know.

I'd be seriously disappointed if things such as decorations weren't approached "in a bipartisan way."

Wasn't the word "groovy" from the 70's not the 60's??????
Just wondering since PP listed it at the bottom of his posting.
I kind of like the "Far Out" or "Funky" myself.

The opening lyrics for her wedding dance should be, "Young girl ... get out of my mind.... My love for you is way out of line. Better run girl.... Your much too young girl ....."

Why should we be surprised?

BIG hat tip to SD Watch who notes that a play has been developed based on the writings of Leonard Peltier:
A play about convicted murderer Leonard Peltier? Whether it is good, bad, or indifferent, I don’t see it playing in South Dakota any time soon. Maybe we should all see it, whatever our views on Peltier’s guilt or innocence, but man, this is going to reopen some major wounds in our state.Go read it here (with a youtube clip).

Yuck. Why should we be surprised about this? "Murderabilia," or the fascination regarding the art and ramblings of convicted killers has been a sick underground trend for some time now. I'd just add this to the pile. To me, it's no more than wanting one of John Wayne Gacy's clown pictures.

Somehow, I doubt the play is going to document what Peltier was convicted for. The killing of FBI agents Coler and Williams from fatal wounds to the head delivered by a high-powered rifle at contact range.

If you're really interested in the history …

I'm running late, so I'll make this quick. The Argus Leader this morning is reporting that the new bishop isn't wasting any time on getting involved in SD politics:
Bishop Paul Swain came out swinging Thursday. Within an hour of being
ordained a Roman Catholic bishop and installed as the eighth leader of the
Catholic Diocese of Sioux Falls, he had spoken out on two issues on the Nov. 7
ballot.

"I'm proud to say that the first vote I will cast as a South Dakotan will
be yes for Referred Law 6," Swain said, to applause and a standing
ovation.

Referred Law 6 is the abortion ban, which was passed by the state
Legislature earlier this year and will be decided by voters. It outlaws all
abortions except those done to save a pregnant woman's life.

"This law is not perfect legislation, but it will better respect and
protect the vulnerable," Swain said.He also said he would vote yes on
Constitutional Amendment C. Approval of Amendment C would amend the South Dakota
