Photograph by KURT WILSON/Missoulian Recognize that pothole in the shot Missoulian photography editor Kurt Wilson took this morning? Have a favorite pothole of your own? Turns out, it’s a TERRIBLE year for potholes in Missoula. Keila Szpaller has the explanation in tomorrow’s Missoulian. In the meantime, just for fun – and to brighten our overly gray days of [...] Advertisement
One of the great joys in the Missoulian newsroom over the years has been watching all the newsroom babies grow up. Last night, we saw one grow up on stage in the Montana Theatre, before our very eyes. Julian Nickell, the 3-year-old son of arts and entertainment reporter Joe Nickell, is the child at the center of [...] Sunday’s Missoulian is going to be a “lollapalooza,” to borrow one of my favorite words from the annals of the Western Montana Fair. Years ago, I wrote a story on highlights from a century’s worth of county fairs, and in one of those the Missoulian reporter remarked that the fair had been a “lollapalooza.” I think [...]
Jewel Have you heard “The Missoula Song” by Jewel? “Do ya, do ya, wanna wanna wanna wanna, do you wanna come on down to the city of Missoula? On a summer day, the Clark Fork River’s gonna cool ya … “They’ll even school ya … in Missoula …” During her tour in June, Jewel wrote a song for [...]
Missoulian delivery tube in Uzbekistan We’re loving this photograph, which arrived on reporter Joe Nickell’s Facebook page today, and shows a Missoulian delivery tube in Uzbekistan.

Joe Nickell and his paddlefish So here’s how I like to troll for reporters interested in Outdoors page assignments: “Who would like to spend a work day having fun outside?” I don’t have to ask Joe Nickell twice. He’s geared up and out the door in no time flat. This past week, the outdoors beckoned waaaay on the [...] Kira Means, 14, takes a break after an afternoon of recording at Club Shmed Studio last Sunday. LINDA THOMPSON/Missoulian Two incredible young women grace the cover of Friday’s Entertainer. Their stories will make you feel good. Theirs are the kind of stories we love sharing with Missoulian readers. Both young women are singers. Both have voices [...] On today’s recommended reading list: the winter edition of Montana Adventurer magazine. The Missoulian newsroom produces Montana Adventurer as one of our niche publications. There’s also a Web site, MontanaAdventurer.com, and a blog, MontanaAdventurer.com/blog. Reporter Michael Moore, a veteran “Montana adventurer,” oversees the blog. But back to the winter edition of the magazine. What you’ll find is [...] The newsroom’s Thanksgiving feast is Tuesday, and I’m looking forward to some fine fixings. Rumor has it, reporter Betsy Cohen is making one of her famous cakes. That alone guarantees a festive afternoon. |

Mick, Joe and a little help from our friends
I’m voting for the October 2006 Rolling Stones concert in Washington-Grizzly Stadium as the best local performance of the last decade. Did you know the Missoulian sold out every copy of the newspaper the day after the concert? Photograph by TOM BAUER/Missoulian
