Musk ox invasion keeps Nome wildlife managers busy
Anchorage Daily News ^ | comJuly 2, 2014 | SEAN DOOGAN

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.

ask about a Homelite trimmer

And you told them to drop off a bag with $400 in unmarked bills at the location their GPS says is Home Depot and you'll take care of it, yes?

Don’t say “unmarked bills”.

You’ll just give them ideas they don’t need to have.

Are you certain your location of the person isn’t spooffed?

Well, no I'm not CERTAIN, but since the top secret weasel-locator goes by IP address, it's the best I get for free... ;-)

(That and the fact that the weasels profile page says he's in NC, and after prodding him with the cattleprod of logic and stuff, he looked me up and therefore gave up his location... ;-)

That is true. You could get the equivalent in $3 bills with Obama’s portrait on them...

As amusingly evil and fully in character as that would be, there might be some small piddling laws about that sort of thing.
But people who can’t distinguish a C from an H in a business name, nor read a darn map don’t deserve not to get hornswaggled.

Not that you ever did but can be certain, positive and realize Darks has never worked in D.C. by that comment.

Darks, I’ll have to tell you a story sometime. This is not the time but involved me (a lowly employee) working around a person that was acting as a lowly employee within a company looking for a few particular characters. He was crafty. He found who he was looking for. I only discovered who he was after he told me. I didn’t have a clue.

Actually Darks that has happened more than once to me. The stories of past working life. Sometimes I look back and wonder why? Then came to the realization everyone was under scrutiny at the time.

Based om the position of his left hand, I say he’s headed elsewhere.

Lol, I’m that obvious?
I’ve passed through and noted how incredibly dirty the locale was on my travels, but working there?
I would have to release rabid lemmings upon them and drive them screaming before me.

At the first one time it happened was a warehouse employee. Is a long story and then several promotions came along after the encounter with the person I mentioned. He was a former D.C. Capitol Policeman. After he told me who he happened to be. I looked at him and said, “Sir, how may help you?” Was surprised he even mentioned who he was.

Thanks nti.. Don't think that there will be a problem because the dude seems to be a typical egotistical donkey's rear orifice.. a lot of noise, and when refuted resorts to personal attacks.

And he's far enough away from TC that he shouldn't bother her either..

Gotta check some windows. Thunderthingie starting...
