Around Here
I am not very good at recounting details and refuse to Read the Daily Interruption because they wouldn't give the Patriot Act any serious scrutiny - afraid to appear even slightly critical of George Bush's policies (consequently the only people who have a clue what those policies are either read Buzzflash or The Missoula Independent).
The very small amount of anything I know covers the tragic, the miraculous, and the strange.
I am so sorry and angry that Staff Sgt. Aaron N. Holleyman, 26, of Glasgow, Mont., died Aug 30 in Khutayiah, Iraq, when his military vehicle hit an improvised explosive device. Holleyman was assigned to the Army's 1st Battalion, 5th Special Forces Group, Fort Campbell, Ky. That he would be the 978th American fatality in this war of lies and rampant profiteering is nothing less than tragic. The man who sent him there to die was at the very least AWOL, quite possibly a deserter who may have committed payroll fraud and ridicules those who serve honorably. I wonder if he will laugh when the form letter is sent out.
Last Thursday evening a three year old boy got lost while camping in the nine mile area with his parents. Despite temperatures in the fourties and previous livestock kills by wolves there, he was found alive and well about two o'clock Sunday afternoon.
A small airplane crashed into a house in Kalispell killing both the men in the airplane and a dog who was home alone.
The only bowling alley in Kalispell burned to the ground the other night. The fire chief apparently pulled his men out in the nick of time. No one was hurt, wise call or divine intervention?
