I took this pict Friday night of DJC’s trumpet player, and it was like an almost perfect silhouette, so I dropped the background out, pretty cool.

The Gargoyle Leader was at it again in yesterday’s paper, hyping up how ‘regular’ the event center task force is. Please. Stick to writing satire, Billiam Janklow needs something to do. I have stated several times that the tax code must change in our state before the EC funding is even possible, and we must show there is a ‘need’ by attending and booking the current facilities we have, otherwise we are just spinning our wheels.

Is our delegate system working? We learned in 2000 that it does not matter how much of the popular vote you get, delegates got to choose the next president. You could same thing about the Democratic primaries. Hillary received more of the popular vote, and only if you include the caucuses does Obama win. Yeah there was that Michigan and Florida thing (I think we should not let Florida participate in any elections) but even if you wipe out those states Hillary still had more of the vote. So were the primaries fair? Not in my eyes. Yes I preferred Hillary over Obama, and IÂ wanted her to ask him to be her running mate. Don’t get me wrong, I support Obama now that he is the nominee, but I just have this feeling that we don’t count as voters anymore and the delegates act like they know better then us. Really, how did that GW thing work out? I think it is time to ditch the delegate and caucus systems, they suck.
The 1st block party of the summer was Friday night at the 8th & RR building DT. Dakota Jazz opened the show and the Blues Bashers closed it out. It was a decent crowd, but would have like to see a little more promotion for it next time.
