2008
In memory of Sideshow (1976-2001)
These are some of Matt’s tattoos. He got a lot of crap about the Flaming 13. I liked the shape of the flames, but that 13 is interesting. The Alien was done by Rusty Needles of Yankton (I think he still lives there) This is only a picture of the beginning the finished piece wrapped around on his back with a sunset.
Gee, I wonder what’s going on here . . .
Members of the Legislature’s Government Operations and Audit Committee asked whether the Department of Tourism and State Development should ask for proposals from other advertising firms.
Talk about a day late and a ($25 million) dollars short.
As for the no-bid to L & S, all you have to do is look at at Rounds for Governor campaign financials, thousands of dollars in donations from the owners of L & S. Who needs an investigation with something an eight-grader could figure out. The legislators should change state law, if they are so concerned about it, wait, that would mean they couldn’t pay back their campaign contributors either.
More dicking around instead of just getting it on.
Lame Duck President Quacks Under Pressure, Apologizes for Financial Meltdown
That’s right, president Bush said he’s sorry about the worst financial meltdown since the great depression. He’s not really responsible for it, but he’s sorry. So there’s that, which is nice. If only Herbert Hoover had thought of it in 1929.Â
The whole thing reminds me of Bill Clinton apologizing to some group about slavery – as if it was his own doing. Did it help anyone with anything? No. Did it solve anything? No.
I’m waiting to see which of his two responses to problems Bush will deploy on this one: will he bomb it or throw bricks of money at it?
