Ping to the TODD PALIN IS A HUNK! list. Be still my heart! TUDD!

I surely want him as our First Gentleman.

Thank you for the thread, dear Onyx. I am just not up to it. We have an unbelievably slow internet, my laptop just died and I have had one of the worst migraines in years, going on four complete days now. The timing could not be worse. Well, yes, it could, but it isn’t really convenient now, either.

Yike! My thanks should be addressed to you. My apologies. Blame it on the migraine. Not thinking clearly. Yeah, that’s it. Please forgive me.

I respect Todd Palin damn near as much as I do Sarah. he is the only spouse of a politician that I know of that has a real life. A real life, I admire.

My question is;
Would he leave Alaska for 4 or 8 years in Washington, should Sarah becomes President?

The Iron Dog race is over Ping To Sarah's List!

Jemian, could you please update your Todd Palin Ping List?

One week later and they are done!

From Sarah's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sarahpalin/posts/10153143955478588

Congratulations to all the teams in this year's brutal Iron Dog! It's the world's longest and toughest snowmachine race – 2200 miles across Alaska – and Todd's been competing in it for 22 years. I made it home in time to join family and friends at the finish line in Fairbanks after having been at the CPAC convention in D.C. the day before where I had the honor of highlighting the United States Military and our veterans.

The Iron Dog trail was rugged; it sure tested the mettle of these athletes and the metal of their equipment in bone crunching conditions. Todd's Team #11 raced in honor of our vets who endure far worse in the name of securing our freedom. Again this year their cowlings proudly displayed the logo that reminds us of America's loyalty to Chris Kyle and the Chris Kyle Frog Foundation, knowing this can raise awareness and funds for this worthy cause to help wounded warriors (http://www.chriskylefrog.com).

Thank you, sponsors, for making this competition possible again – including Polaris Outpost Alaska, Polaris Racing, StudBoy, Klim, Zugger Shocks, IceAge Performance, Al Palma, Big Lake Powersports, Riverboat Discovery, L&M Supplies, Doyon Limited, family and friends!

FYI (can you ping the Iron Dog list?)

Iron Dog on NBC Sports Network
Tuesday, March 31, 2015
11:00 PM Eastern – 8:00 PM Pacific – 7:00 PM Alaska

For the first time ever, the Iron Dog Snowmobile Race will be featured in a one-hour documentary for a national audience, airing on NBC Sports Network in late March. The Iron Dog, billed as the “world’s longest, toughest snowmobile race,” is a 2,000 mile sprint across an ice-locked Alaska wilderness, blending man and machine in an extreme test of endurance, skill and luck.

KTUU-TV’s Iron Dog documentary is scheduled to air March 31, 2015. Emmy Award-winning sports producer Peter Henning will lead production of the project in partnership with KTUU’s Brad Hillwig. Henning’s career in television has spanned extreme sports coverage, including documentaries produced on the Iditarod, Eco-Challenge and most notably, the Emmy Award-winning Iron Man Triathlon in Kona, Hawaii, for which Henning served as Executive Producer for the past 15 years. Hillwig, a former award-winning photojournalist at KTUU and current Marketing Director, will work with Henning and collaborate with the Channel 2 Sports team and KTUU’s Syntax Productions to produce the documentary. Hillwig has won numerous awards for producing KTUU promotions and in 2014 he was recognized with a Northwest Regional Emmy Award.
