Props to De
Last night’s city council meeting was more entertaining then the Daily Show last night. I even skipped Margaritas with some friends to stay home and watch. Lot’s of barbs and BS. I’ll have to give props to De Knudson, she railed video lottery and her obvious disgust with it. It was refreshing to here a public official really give their honest opinion on the matter. I think it is a scourge on society and costs us more in social costs then what we make from it. But it didn’t stop the pro-video lottery/I heart Mike Rounds lawyers from showing up crying that the poor bar owners will go broke if they can’t open anymore of their fine establishments.
Wah.
Of course, General Jamison had to put down the law again, this time with Kermit. Munson even gaveled him. Too bad Litz wasn’t on Kermit’s side, he could of twisted Jamison’s nose.

Watch out Banksy. I think this is a great idea, but I can’t help wondering if this is just a way to promote this advertising agency. When the Drake Springs park meetings were going on, they said a new skate park would have to be build, I proposed a permanent Graffitti wall that kids could tag whenever. Funny thing, never have heard back from the city on that one.
The Gargoyle Leader finally woke up
I posted this cartoon way back on April 16, and the Mitchell Daily Republic printed it a couple of days later. So what takes the Gorgoyle Leader so long to catch up with the rest of SD? http://www.argusleader.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080506/COLUMNISTS0107/805060330&referrer=FRONTPAGECAROUSEL
BTW, Nice toon John. I could do 100 toons on this topic alone.
We were discussing this at Black Sheep the other day, and I said “Doesn’t it defeat the purpose of camping?” and one of the Barista’s said “But what about people who live in campgrounds” and the other Barista said “Those aren’t campers, they’re homeless.”
