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.

I could say it wasn’t his beer.

Beer’s beer. I can’t stand a beer snob.

I have to cook the last chicken breast, but don’t know if I want to eat it. I’m not even taking my pills, yet. I’m just not sure how my stomach will receive them.

There may be some Cream o’ Wheat in the cupboard. But then, maybe only grits. Still, how bad can grits be on an upset stomach?

I think I’ll go find out. Unghhh.

It was Land Shark. Tom was supposed to clean up the spill, but he did it quite poorly. We don’t call him Epic Fail for nothing.

And with that, I have to go get dressed for church. I hope everyone’s mornings progresses better.

There are several adults in residence there, and at least two of them drink beer, so it doesn’t HAVE to be Tom’s.

He could be just clumsy like his Auntie ‘Face, and trip over his feet in the proximity of someone’s beer. Yah. That’s the ticket! Like that!

Opposite of a beer snob?

“Skunky beer! Skunky beer! Think I’ll pour it in his ear!” -fight chant prior to the passed out dude ending up with a soggy ear.
