Huckleberries Online

Best of the Local Blogs — 12/8/05

Digital Fog provides an example of "Nativity Scenes Gone Wrong." If you haven't checked out Digital Fog's blog, he offers interesting photos and spoofs, including one today of a man caught with his pants down outside an upper-story window and other goodies here.

*Cis Gors/From A Simple Mind remembers the first time she saw King Kong, the original one with Faye Wray, and how she didn't stop running until she was four blocks from he theater here.

*His Bobness is swearing off flaming political posts again and this time he means it here. So, we should start a lottery to see how long it lasts, and I'll take "less than a week" and start posting fire-breathing righty stuff in the "comments" feature.

*You think Coeur d'Alene is the only company town around here? Think again. Bayview Herb/Bay Views reports that Waterford Park Homes has purchased three of the town's six resorts, the town trailer park, and the Scenic Motel, possibly with an eye of transforming the scenic bay into a mega-resort here.

*Stebbijo/Your Choice had a close encounter with the local McDonalds directional signs at the take-out window and now wonders if Mickey D's is worth the green here.

*CDADave/Thin Air discovers a little kindness to our fowl weather friends along Lake Coeur d'Alene kindness a warm fire inside here.

Also: Granati's tinkering with his Web site design here, John Rook dubs U.S. Sen. Ernest Hollings as "Radio's Man of the Year" here, and Mari Meehan/Dogwalk Musings tosses in her 2 cents re: the Christmas war here.
