What’s going on in the Great Falls blogosphere? First up is Andrea, who offers an apology for ever uttering the word “jetter,” which is a term used by some Great Falls natives to refer to the airmen at Malmstrom Air Force Base. Keri is hitting the road for a mini-vacation with her kids; she better bring some pix to share with us! Ray has some thoughts on the Katrina situation, and who is to blame for the post-storm chaos. The York Street Bum attended the Blues & Brews party last week and has photographic evidence.

    I’ve never heard “jetters” before now, but in the last AF town I lived, you hear “floppy” quite a bit. I think it’s a reference to a hat? I never did get it.

    FLOPPY? Good grief, I *hope* it’s a reference to a hat! :-) But I’ve never heard that term before…wonder how it originated? What town was that in, Bonkrood?

    Mountain Home, Idaho is where they call airmen “floppies”
