HOW CAN THE PAVILION BLAME THE ECONOMY? ACCORDING TO CITY HALL THE RECESSION HASN’T HIT SIOUX FALLS.

It seems the city is sending mixed messages. They claim we are recession proof;

Ending 2008 with a $215,786 operating fund deficit was not a surprise, Washington Pavilion of Arts and Science board members said during the annual meeting Tuesday.

 

The year before, in 2007, the operating fund ended ahead by $52,410.

“And things looked good through much of the year,” Pay said. “We thought we might come out OK, but then we hit that economic slump.”

Oh, sorry, it wasn’t a recession it was a slump. Big difference. My bad.

“The city pays subsidies on many things,” Munson told the board Tuesday. “We pay for all our fine city parks that, like the Pavilion, greatly improve our quality of life here,” he said.

Gee, Dave, can’t remember the last time I had to pay $65 dollars to ride my bike on the bike trails, but of course, I don’t want to give you any crazy ideas either.

WOW! THERE IS A REPUBLICAN FEMALE DUMBER THEN GOVERNOR MOOSE DROOL (H/T- Jackilope)

BOSTON (AP) — “The View” co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck has been accused of plagiarism.

A lawsuit in federal court in Massachusetts alleges that Hasselbeck lifted “word for word” content from a book on celiac disease written by a self-published author on Cape Cod.

Hard to believe such a sweet girl would do something like that. It’s not like she cries hysterically or throws shit fits all the time on The View. She seems so well put together.

AND APPARENTLY LOOKING LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN FRANKENSTEIN AND ABE LINCOLN MAKES YOU ‘HUNKY’ THESE DAYS (H/T – JACKILOPE)

Our Jr. Senator, what a hunk! Great! Just when I got back into self-grooming again, ugly is back in!
