Slowly getting back on track. In Smellovision

Okay, I've got another set of "10 questions with..." coming soon, and I'm starting to line up the one after that.

The next one should be another one of our elected officials, and I doubt you'd guess who.

And as far as the local weekly media, I agree the Hot Springs Sheriff one is good, but my favorite is from the Lake Andes Wave (7/20/05):
State Senator Frank Kloucek found high levels of Hydrogen sulfide on a hog feedlot legislators toured last Monday. Later in the day, even higher levels were found at a dairy feedlot that legislators were to tour near Brookings...

Hydrogen sulfide is one of the 302 gases found in manure. It is usually associated with the foul smell...
So, Frank is flexing his legislative muscle to help investigate poop smells? This might top his previous legislative milestones on his efforts at the state dessert.

I'm just wondering how he tests for it? Is it strictly a nasal test? Or does he have a machine to read the stinkiness of poop smells? And isn't he a farmer? What do the other farmers think about possible legislation on how stinky their farms can be?

For inquiring minds, a tip for you. Don't invite him to be a judge at the local chili feed. Or the hardboiled egg eating contest.

(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...
