10 lbs of “Do Not Want” in a 5 lb bag
Tuesday, July 31st, 2007Well, I'll let you guys do what you want with this. The headline, if you're too lazy to click, reads, "Test Fest '07 unfolds in Craig." Do your worst. (H/T: SU)

More Meriwether Fire, Plus the Little Wolf Creek Fire, Too!
Tuesday, July 31st, 2007I'm thinking of renaming this blog "The Beavis Blog," since all it's been about lately is "Fire, Fire, Fire!" But, as the dynamic duo noted, fire is pretty cool. (Huh. Huh huh. Fire is cool. Get it. Huh huh.) This picture, I think, is particularly good, since you've ...
More Gov’t Largesse for Energy Interests?
Tuesday, July 31st, 2007The left-wing often discredits a free market in energy because of the ability of corporate interests to dominate the system at the expense of the environment and the little guy. Other than the fact that such a market is not free but fascist, my other response has been that gov't ...
3-7-77
Saturday, July 28th, 2007If you're a Montanan, and have had interaction (good, bad or indifferent) with the Highway Patrol, you've seen those numbers on their insignia. The meaning of those numbers has been lost to time, and the story behind them is an interesting one, to say the least, and tied to vigilantism in ...
I Kinda Wanted to Lolcat this One
Saturday, July 28th, 2007It's a sculpture near where I took the fire photos, it's a guy (one of the Siebens or the Hilgers, I think. It's hard to read the interpretive sites when the kids just want to climb on the sculpture or rearrange all the gravel on the trail) holding ...
More Meriwether Fire
Friday, July 27th, 2007The smoke was much thicker today, and not as compressed by the cool air. This is the same vantage point as yesterday's photos. If you're interested in keeping up on the status of this fire, you can find it here. For all fires in Montana, check here.
Meriwether Fire
Thursday, July 26th, 2007We took a drive this evening to have a gander at the Meriwether fire, burning up at the Gates of the Mountains. This is just one shot, you can find the rest here.
Day In, Day Out, All Week Long
Wednesday, July 25th, 2007Things go better with rock. Time again for another edition of "Small Town, Long Streets," as if you couldn't have guessed. I've got some ideas as to what we can visit about, but twist, turns, digressions and diversions are always welcome. Here's the contact info, it doesn't bite. Phone: (718) 664-9769 Yahoo! IM: ...
Intersections
Tuesday, July 24th, 2007A while back, I posted a link to this story by Lieutenant Colonel M.R. Strobl who accompanied Chance Phelps to his final resting place. Now, they're making a movie about that incident, and it's going to be filmed in Ennis.
Silly Quiz Saturday
Saturday, July 21st, 2007Oddly enough, these are both pretty apt. My Liberal Identity:You are a Working Class Warrior, also known as a blue-collar Democrat. You believe that the little guy is getting screwed by conservative greed-mongers and corporate criminals, and you’re not going to take it anymore.Take the quiz at www.FightConservatives.com My Conservative Identity:You ...
The Verdict
Thursday, July 19th, 2007In the comments of this post my SU alluded to the fact that we'd decided on a tit-for-tat. She'd give kimchi a try, and in return, I'd try some mushrooms. JP gave me a recipe to try, so I threw some portobellos on the grill. How do they look? The verdict?
Bearing a Gift Beyond Price, Almost Free
Thursday, July 19th, 2007Tune in tonight for yet another episode of "Small Town, Long Streets." I don't have any guests lined up except for you, and we always have a good time together, don't we? Well, don't we? Maybe we'll talk about the weather tonight. Let me get the formality out of the ...
I’m From The Government, and I’m Here To Help
Wednesday, July 18th, 2007This story is enough to make you either howl with rage, or weep in sympathy. With a stroke of a pen, years of work and a person's livelihood is gone. I've known Karen for a few years now, and I will say this: If there is anyone on this Earth who ...
The World Will End, and We’re All Going to Die
Wednesday, July 18th, 2007Well, folks, it's official. Found this gem over at New Left West today. Here's some <blockquote>'y goodness. [R]egardless of this rogue effort and ingenuity, human ineptitude to live within the tides and provisions of the earth and our relentless need for carbon to fuel our current lives will end in our ...
