Have A Good Lamb Recipe?
When my wife and I helped my sister move to England, we inherited many of her uneaten freezer items, including a three pound "lump" of lamb. Perusing the freezer this last weekend, I decided Easter would be a good time to enjoy this lamb, but I've never actually prepared a lamb dish...

Thanks for giving me a few days off! I got a lot of yard work done, but my taxes...let's just say I'm happy we have until the 17th this year!

A couple of students at NTCHS need some help from you and your kids. Act Out Loud is a national organization which promotes the elimination of distracted driving. Two of my students did an FCCLA project to promote the cause, and they are one of the top 25 in the nation (only one from Montana)...
Griz And Cat Fans: Wanna Complain To ESPN?
Avid Grizzly fan Tom Root called me this morning to say he added his voice to the vocal throng who have complained about the inability to watch either Montana or Montana State on television next week. Not only did he complain to ESPN, he also called the FCC to let them know he considers the decision to carry the games on ESPN3 only unfair to us technology-challenged folks in the remote West... Rea

Montana Umpire Working In Pioneer League!
According to the Independent Record in Helena, Hamilton umpire Mike Huus is working Pioneer League baseball games this year, believed to me the first Montana native to work in the longtime Montana based minor league. The Helena Independent Record talked with the University of Montana student during his appearance at this week's Helena Brewers home stand about baseball, and why he writes "Sara

It’s Flitch Day! Do You Get The Bacon?
Today is Flitch Day, a really  old English tradition where the monks would give married couples a "flitch" of bacon if they could prove to a jury of single people that the couple had lived the year in harmony and fidelity, and had not wished once that they were still single...

June 20 Is American Eagle Day!
In celebration of our national symbol,  I came across a great website with great photography, collectables, ways to donate to help eagles, and really neat video of a baby eagle in a nest in Tennessee. I want to know who was the brave soul who put that camera up around that nest. That's one big mama bird!  Check out the video after the jump:
Cranky? Why May Surprise You!
This being Monday, I thought this might be an appropriate day to share this information from Yahoo Health. While some of these probably won't surprise you -- your co-workers make you cranky? Who would have thought? -- but a couple might, like room lighting...

Guilty Of Saying Some Of These At Work?

Still, it wouldn't surprise me that you have at least one person in your office that says things like these. (Not you, of course.)
