Billings list: Recalling the crucified cat, or not

I’m not that big a fan of lists … unless they’re actually good, and this one, “14 Signs That You Grew Up in Billings MT,” is pretty good.

It is the work of Justin Hutchinson, local radio guy, photographer, party-goer, etc., who pointed out a couple of days ago that his post about Billings was “going around again,” this time on BuzzFeed. The post, which I didn’t see on any previous go-rounds, begins with this promising statement: “You remember the first time you heard about the crucified cat.”

I’m happy to say I never heard of the poor crucified cat, but I was well aware of the Father’s Day tornado, the Dollar Theater, Snowbird and my favorite, “Speed Limits Are Suggestions.” The caption on the photo accompanying that one reads: “Seriously? Who hasn’t passed some slow driving geezer going 45 down 6th Avenue?”

Another mystery was the one with the headline, “Let’s All Go … Where To?” Under that is a photo of some kind of trade fair and a caption that reads:”You know the rest of the jingle!”

Nope, I don’t. Can somebody help?
