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.

No, I didn't create it;wish I could write that well. It was a bestselling book, a perennial favorite of mystery fans, published in 1962 and reissued frequently. About two genteel but seriously nutzoid sisters who murder people. Or do they?
A good read for a cold, snowy Nome day when your musk ox fails to amuse you:)

It’s a terrible joke on our part.

Live gives me challenges when it sees I’m bored... ;o]Isn't that the truth. When I start to complain, life gives me something to complain about. "Be happy, don't worry" should have been the name of that song.

We’re over here! http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3201555/posts
Yep...I try not to complain because I end up getting a bit more than I expected to deal with!
And when I think of others and their problems, I think I’m happy with the problems I have to deal with!
*HUG*
