To the hip, hip-hop and you don't stop the rockin'
To the bang-bang boogie, say up jump the boogie
To the rhythm of the boogie, the beat

Did you come here for forgiveness,
Did you come to raise the dead,
Did you come here to play Jesus to the lepers in your head ...
Did you come to raise the dead,

Pack it up
Pack it in
Let me begin
I came to win
Battle me? That’s a sin.

Russia drafted a 28 point surrender plan, handed it to the Trump team, and the regime delivered it to Kyiv unedited, demanding Zelensky sign it by Thanksgiving or lose all US support. Trump and Vance then promoted the plan exactly as Russia wrote it, verbatim, on TV, online, and in person.

The 2 p.m. temp at the Yankton airport is 81 degrees, setting an unofficial record. The all-time November record for Yankton is 83, set on Nov. 8, 1999. That was also the latest recorded 80-degree temperature of the year in Yankton.

The temperature at the Yankton airport is 78 degrees, which is (unofficially) a new record. (It would count for Nov. 15, because that's the way the records are kept.) If it can climb to 80, it would be the latest in the year Yankton has ever hit that mark.
