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.
Musk oxen are wandering into the city on the Seward Peninsula, and despite loud noises, water hoses and even a blow-up bear coated in ursine urine, they don't want to leave.

Morning TC,
That Kitty has just been e-mailed around the planet. Puuuurfect.
Do we have a new Crew member?
Or did He/She run for their lives?
Just noticed the 500 mark. Congratulations!
It was just a coincidence!
Poor kitty. I shall sing “Monday, Monday” for this poor kitteh.
Maybe it will soothe her.
Not a bad idea. Making it not-Monday would be good ...
It doesn't work. It's like folks who "don't do" breakfast. Whatever first meal you eat will be breaking your overnight fast, so you're "doing breakfast".
That's why I say, "Every day is Monday, except Friday!"
That didn’t make me feel any better, Bob.
Besides, you home-school. So every day for you is a Monday, including Fridays.
If you want to feel better, take your daily dose of coconut oil.
I have to agree. Last week we didn’t skip Monday, we just had Monday on Tuesday.
But buck up, everyone. This is the day the LORD has made. One preacher I heard said a valid interpretation of the 2nd half of that quote is, “I will rejoice and be glad in Him,” rather than, “in it.”
So if you can’t be glad it’s Monday, there’s something in there to be glad about.
Yeah, the truth can be a downer like that.
Well, there’s always, “Today is the first day ...
... of what’s shaping up to be a rotten week.”
Wait, that’s not likely to work, is it.
I tell people, "You should enjoy the time you spend at work, because you spend a lot of time there".
In the same way, we should strive to celebrate our Mondays as well, because we spend one seventh of our lives in them.
Being a poet, I take notes, and keep minutes, even on Mondays.
Now if you can just convince people to like paying taxes, since they’re going to have to pay them anyway.

Flax-seed oil.
I’m going to the gym with the byos. This will not make me feel better, either.
Don’t call me racist.
Apparently, if you’re going to commit a crime, you should do it in blackface.

I decided to rename the John in my tiny NYC apartment to Jim. That way I can say I went to the Jim every morning.
I think I read that on OFST, but I’m not sure.
The way to avoid paying taxes is to not have an income.
Monday works the same way. The way to avoid Mondays is to not have a job.
I’d love to fish for a living, but I’d starve.
