I liked the movie "Sleeping With The Enemy"!
My favorite is:
March 3, 1:14 a.m. A Bigfork man called 911 to report some problems with his “nemesis across the street.”
His nemesis?
I don't know who writes the police blotter there but they do an excellent job. Keep up the good work. Flathead County residents, please don't ever change.

June 28th was quite a big day - four separate calls from that date made the list!

Jan, 24, 8:08 P.M.-- A Kalispell man called 911 to report "He felt like an octopus." He then started singing Cher songs.
Very few 911 operators in other places ever have an octopus sing Cher songs to them. The next song was "Feelings."
There's no place like Flathead County.

This, combined with Dave's year-end review, actually make it worth living another 12 months just to see what's in next year's columns.

I'm with them (sorry, Cindy) about Sleeping With the Enemy.
I kind of like the guy who "felt like an octopus," though singing Cher songs might have been a bridge too far. Still, better than "Copacabana," right?
I don't know about you, but I want to know more about the woman poisoned by "spies and generals" from the George W. Bush administration. The guy with information for the "cold case unit" about a stolen shower curtain "several years ago" needs a followup too.

Wait until she sees " The English Patient ".

My favo(u)rite:
”July 28, 10:15 a.m. A Canadian man reported that he broke his windshield while driving through a construction zone while visiting the United States. He called to see if America could reimburse him for the damage.”
Time for a telethon! Perhaps the Rock Bottom Remainders could perform.
(I, too, am in sympathy with the anti-“Sleeping with the Enemy” folks.)

A telethon? I don't know, we might wind up like "Americathon".

Aug. 23, 10:57 a.m. A group of drunk guys were jumping in front of moving logging trucks.
Some early front runners for the next Darwin Awards.

Rod--The telethon could be fun if the only song played was South Park's, "Blame Canada."
