Nome is used to rowdy residents, but some relatively new transplants are making a real nuisance of themselves -- although unlike the colorful characters of the early 20th century gold rush days, these visitors have four legs, not two.

How’s a person expected to navigate to the coffee maker without coffee in the first place?

Whose plan is this, anyway?

I really needed a dose of cuteness this morning. Thanks.

We have wind. Must be from one of those hurricanes in the Pacific. They are rather pesky for us here.

Wind is good.

It’s unwind that causes the trouble.

Yeah, this continuum is full of contradictions.

You can’t go swimming until you’ve learned to swim.

You can’t make coffee until you’ve had a cup of coffee.

You can’t hold a political office until you’ve had experience in political office.

Oh, wait, I forgot we’d licked that one.

Carry on.

Recorded the singing ... ArGee someone is going to offer a contract on your singing. Might want to duck and cover.

No-to-illegals was right.

Death Row records in Atlanta is interested in bringing you in to make a demo, if you can rap as well as you sing. I assured them you can (you can, can't you?).
