I’ve lived in Bozeman a long time. One of the things I’ve always appreciated about this community is how welcoming it is – to everyone. It reminds me of my Southern home where when company comes, we roll out the red carpet to show folks we’re glad you’re visiting.

Beg pardon? My computer thinks it is new. I'm confused. Apparently, so was my computer. I ignore all this and head straight into my… Continue reading Crashing

It is now banned: They pulled the commercial from its spot during Dancing With The Stars which I find ironic given some of the costumes that appear on that show.

I am about to unleash my poison pen because I am FURIOUS. And when I'm feeling that way, nothing makes me feel better than unleashing my wrath in a scathing letter to the person in charge telling them exactly what happened.
