I'm willing to bet Flatheaders (what else would you call them?) had something to do with this.

[Steve]

Oh, someone will dig it up sooner or later.

guess they needed fossil fuel

Be on the lookout for a large fiberglass tyrannosaur roaming around Montana.

I think Missoula's about 200 miles of Flathead, which is about a 45 minute commute for a typical Montana driver. If the road is paved they can make it quicker.

[Mike in Montana]

Nah, it's about 100 miles...

How come no one figured out the Maury Povich connection before?

In May 2007, Povich launched the Flathead Beacon, a weekly print newspaper and online news source in Montana's Flathead County, where Povich has a home and is a member at the Eagle Bend Golf Club.

This explains so much.

So Mike, about a 20 minute commute then? 25 if you get stuck behind a snowplow?

Montana road map chart says 123 miles from Missoula to Kaslispell, but you'd hit Flathead County halfway there. Speed may depend on whether you're follwing a loaded logging truck or being chased by an empty one.

How far is St. Helena from the Capes of Trafalgar?

A longish way--a longish way--with ten year more to run.

It's South across the water underneath a setting star.

How far is Flathead County from the hills of old Missou'?
Sixty-one point five miles, the blog tells me,
Believe the blog, believe the blog, it always answers true.

Saw Montana Truckstop Dinosaur open for The Troggs. Acoustic, of course.
