Funnyman Bill Cosby is coming to Great Falls this November. Tickets for his show went on sale last Wednesday, & if the pace of ticket sales in other Montana cities is any indication of how Great Falls & north central Montana respond, then those wishing to see Bill Cosby "in person" will want to purchase their tickets NOW!

Strange Complex Moving

Jerry Puffer — Mon, 20 May 2013 18:18:39 +0000

It could well be an apt description of a typical afternoon on the Puffman Show, but in this case, it's how the new novel, "Sunday Girl" is described by The Literary Consultancy They write that this tome from Kalliope Lee that I'll be giving away this afternoon (Monday) at 4:30 on my Puffman Musical Trivia, is a "strange, complex & moving novel that's immensely readable & that authorKalliaope Lee has created a believable, mysterious world with moments of real dram & poignancy."

A Report From The Field

“Talkative” Todd, the custom cutter guy from up north of the border, says he’s ready to move south. Todd said that there is no rush to get there, other than to take a “look-see” at the crops. The “experts” are talking a 37 bushel average(!) while the producers are jacking their jaws about 5 to [...]

Emerald Catron — Tue, 14 May 2013 20:22:56 +0000

Listen, don't read this while you're eating. Come back when you've finished though. It's just that reading about parboiling insects might have a negative effect on your appetite. See, the 17-year cicadas have already started to emerge from the ground, and there are going to be billions of them. BILLIONS. So, you may as well eat some, right?

You're The Boss

Jerry Puffer — Mon, 13 May 2013 14:34:55 +0000

That’s what one of my Mayo Clinic Physicians always tells me…”You’re the boss, Mr. Puffer”.. It sounds great(!), but I’m never quite sure if it’s really true. I DO know that I CAN be “The BOSS” of my food & actually put my food to work for ME, after reading Dr. Gary R. Epler, M.D.’s [...]
