Charlie Mulluk, or as he is known in entertainment circles, Good Time Charlie, is no stranger to Malta. The 1991 Harlem High School graduate got his start in "the business" right here in town. On Saturday night, he will emcee the third installment of Malta Comedy Night at the Villa Theatre and he said he is stoked that he once again gets the chance to return to his old stomping ground.

The 20-month saga of updating Malta Elementary School’s public address system has finally ended. Last year, lightning struck near the school and put the PA system on the fritz.

Malta School’s Superintendent Kris Kuehn told the board that $22,841 of the bill will be covered from insurance money and that nearly another $2,300 will be covered by a TIP Grant and other past fundraising monies. “Which leaves the District’s obligatio...

I’m not from around here. That fact is regularly pointed out to me. Usually following a column someone didn’t like. It’s true. I was born and raised a Hoosier. I didn’t arrive in Montana until I was 18. I came here on my own. And I’m still here by choice. But I don’t bring that up when someone calls me an outsider. There’s no need. It shouldn’t make my opinion on matters of Montana any less legitimate. You don’t have to live here a certain length of time to have an opinion. Of course no one lik...
As I sit in front of my computer this Wednesday morning, removing last week’s news in perpetration for this week’s, I decided to leave the giant picture box on page 1A -- the one which housed the Saco-Whitewater-Hinsdale second place basketball squad -- because I am just that confident that it will be replaced with a picture of the Malta M-ettes hoisting some Class B hardware. No pressure ladies...yeah right. It has been a forgone conclusion that anything short of a State Championship for the M-ettes at the Class B Championship in Great Fal...

Thanks to the excellent play of our sports teams,I have been blessed to follow them during state tournaments for the past three basketball seasons and last couple of wrestling seasons. During my expeditions, I have learned a few things. Number one, I invested in the a shoulder strap for my camera, instead of a strap around the neck, which can really hurt after a few hours. Second I learned to make sure I keep my batteries fully charged. Third, I learned to plan a hotel early, because nothing is guaranteed upon arrival to whatever town the...
