Liar, Liar, pants on fire . . . or at least a middle east country

I’m still chuckling about the comment in the POLITICO interview with Steve Hildebrand where they called Sioux Falls ‘Sleepy’ This flyer emailed to me today further proves how sleepy we are. Golf cart tours of the bike trail? Seriously? I thought the purpose of the bike trail was to get some exercise? Especially for seniors. This is wrong on so many levels.

Now let’s pass it with or without the party of NO. Democrats are in power, start acting like it.

Hosenpheffer went to Austin, TX last weekend and saw The Cult (see below) she also got to see roots country legend Charlie Sexton and befriended the drummer of Babes in Toyland who is organizing South by Southwest this year (and I am freaking going).

Also, the ‘2 Marks’ from the famed Sioux Falls roots country band ‘Violet’ were in town a couple of weeks ago visiting from Seattle. This is a picture of SF poet Charles Luden with them.

I had to laugh about these two quotes from Levi Johnston in the latest Vanity Fair article about Governor Moose Drool (the story has been taken down).
“I was at the hospital when Sarah had the baby a little after six A.M. on
April 18, 2008, two weeks before we told her we were pregnant. He was given
the name Trig Paxxson Van Palin because Paxxson was Todd’s favorite place
to snow machine in Alaska, and because of the rock band Van Halen.”

“After Tripp was born, Sarah would pay more attention to our son then to her
own baby, Trig. Sarah has a weird sense of humor. When she would come home
from work, Bristol and I would be holding Trig and Tripp. Sarah would call
Trig – who was born with Down syndrome – “my little Down’s baby.” But I
couldn’t believe it when she would come over to us and sometimes say,
playing around, “No, I don’t want the retarded baby-I want the other one”,
and pick up Tripp. That was just her-even her kids were used to it.” – Levi Johnston
