Montana Lady Fierce Catch Last-Minute Victory
Ladies flag football already has one appeal for this cheapskate: getting a seat near the 50-yard line for only $5. The Montana Lady Fierce squared off against the Miles City Mayhem (in pink) last Saturday night at the RMC football field. Approximately 300 filled the stands and sat on the grass to watch this game. The benefit match also highlighted breast cancer screening and organizations in the fight against domestic violence.
Big News Strikes When We’re Away: Walton and Trump Edition
It never fails that when we are gone, something big always happens. This time, two big stories emerged. The first was the shock and surprise that Bill Walton had died. Usually, a celebrity of that status has well-known health problems. Outside of his physical problems with his knees and back, no one really knew. I was surprised as well, but no one had a bigger zest for life than Bill Walton. As I wrote a few weeks ago, it's too bad it takes a death to bring out the best in a person and their life's accomplishments.

Montana Constitution: Treason and Property
I wonder about that too. In a previous article on Article II Section 30, I addressed the state non-relevance of Treason since that is a national crime in wartime.
