School Bus Bump

Ouch – looks like this school bus got a dent in the rear fender. Happened on Monday near the refinery. Didn’t see anyone injured, thank goodness.

Carol Bradley & Saving Gracie

At Starbucks this afternoon (duh) and noticed a puppy in the window – accompanied by Carol Bradley, Great Falls’ newest published author! Her book “Saving Gracie” has just been released, and it’s garnering impressive reviews.

About the book: “It’s the compelling true story of one dog’s rescue from a Pennsylvania puppy mill. The book chronicles how one little dog is transformed from a bedraggled animal, worn out from bearing puppies, into a loving, healthy member of her new family, and profiles the people who stepped forward to save her along the way.”

Also of note: Starbucks got some new chairs!

Seniors 2011

One of the brightest lights in Great Falls – our very own Cindy Cieluch (whose desk at KRTV I now inhabit!) – is offering a nifty giveaway:

Do you know a student who deserves to be in the spotlight? Do you know someone who volunteers without tooting their own horn? Do you know a young person who studies, works, excels in sports, shines in the arts and/or always has time for others? In other words, do you know an upcoming senior in the class of 2011 who should win a photography package worth $1,000?

Definitely worth checking out, if you know a deserving ‘11 Senior!

“I Own The Airport”

Some of you may have seen the animated “re-creation” of certain news events in recent months, the most famous/notorious being the Tiger Woods incident.

But Electric City Weblog has stumbled across what I believe is the very first instance of a Great Falls news incident being subjected to the same treatment.

Whatever side of the airport dispute you favor, this is pretty funny stuff. Sort of like an editorial page cartoon brought to life.

Probably not Tetley or Lipton

I don’t know if the driver of this truck (spotted at Fox Farm @ 10th Ave S) is a proud Tea Party member, or a Lefty who is so committed to mocking Tea Party members that he just couldn’t resist inscribing on his license plate the most common epithet hurled at them.

Unless I’m misreading the plate, that is, and it has nothing to do with the Tea Party at all.
