Sorry these images are so small. After 8500 posts, you'd think I would know how to post an image.

I'm hoping the OP will update the title of this thread to note the LSU connection.

We need as many eyeballs as we can get

Good Morning. No updates. Megan is still missing.

To answer some questions:
She's from Denver. She grew up there. Her dad is from Shreveport and graduated from LSU. They are my cousins. Her dad is and has always been a close friend. I've known Megan since she was a baby.

Pink hair: she likes it. She's a musician and a smart, responsible young woman with a stable home life. This is HIGHLY unusual.

Some of you know me and are friends on FB (Owlie, I'm looking @ you). She's good people. Please pass it along/help if you can.

outside of a loss of power, there really isn't a reason to evacuate from the warehouse district. immediately after Katrina it was mostly operable, save the lack of power in places that did not have a huge generator.


My building has a generator for hall lights and elevators, but not the apartments. Our cars are on the 4th floor with us. This place is a concrete bunker. I feel pretty safe

Here in Warehouse district. Just watching the rain and wind. I can see 90 and I'm surprised there are people heading towards the CCC in this wind.
Thanks for putting this together, Rummy. I’m glad to be able to do something to help.
I’ve been here longer than some of these people have been alive. I think I deserve a t-shirt for that alone.

I didn’t read the rest. Was there another question?

Nationally known companies based in Bozeman include Newport/ILX Lightwave, Quantel USA, RightNow Technologies, Gibson Guitar Corporation, and Simms Fishing Products.


That list is old. Right Now sold out to Oracle about 5 years ago, so now Oracle is one of Bozeman's biggest employers.

Interestingly, Right Now was co-founded by Montana's new congressman Greg Gianforte, who made a name for himself last week when he body slammed a pesky reporter the day before the special election.

On another note, the biggest knock on Bozeman is that housing prices are high and wages are pitifully low. I have always worked remotely. Many people there do.

There are (I think) 11 craft breweries in a town of roughly 40k people. :cheers:

I know Poet lives in Montana but not sure where. I asked her to chime in on this thread.


Yep, Bozeman.

I agree with HoustonChick. Live where you can afford based on what suits you. There's not a bad neighborhood in town and you have distinct options if you're a new house person or an old house person. There's plenty of decent food and lots of great craft beer. If you like good ethnic food, the choices are slim but overall Bozeman is a great town. It's hard to go wrong.
