Musk ox invasion keeps Nome wildlife managers busy

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.

Yes, we have rules. Keep the language and pictures reasonably clean. Don’t get into unpleasant arguments (as opposed to civil disagreements, no matter how lively). Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.

That kind of thing.

If you want to show your age ,call it L.S.D....(Libra Solidus Denarius)

An old joke, but a good one. "Libra" means "pound of weight" in Spanish, and "libro" means "book." I used to tell my Spanish-speaking friends that Kathleen weighed "15 libros," and my English-speaking friends that she weighed "15 books," thus confusing everyone.

Unngh.
May the rabbit be with us.

[ArGee]

Right. It’s illegal to sell them now.

I keep forgettng.

[ArGee]

Basically a man-cave with women, then?

Which would explain the weeping part.

Here’s a shovel. We have work to do.

We been workin’ on a foxhole, all the live long day. We’ve been workin’ on a foxhole, just passin’ the time away ... Helps to sing as we dig ...

[ArGee]

We doesn’t has foxes in NYC.

These holes are for ‘rats.

[no-to-illegals]

yep, another one uncovered ... See Main Board.

“Louisiana” Democrat Sen. Mary Landrieu has no home in Louisiana ... LOL

[ArGee]

Is that the La Democrat thing?

[no-to-illegals]

Many of both sides do same but seldom are they exposed though as thread is pointing out some have been outed. Somebody might be upset that over three billion dollars to her for her vote on zer0care might not be paying the kickbacks counted on within D.C. Many informed (on the thread) suspect it will not be difficult to find a judge to throw out this finding. The Constitution is clear on matters of this sort but democrat judges normally ignore the ultimate law of the land. Still strange she has been outed or uncovered. Could be the money and how the money was spread around ....

As long as it has a skull in it we can read anything.

It's full of gadgets and random car parts. When I get the urge to dust, I repress it ... it's just not safe.

That's rather deep, actually.

How is your son doing? I've forgotten his exact age ... starting school?

Maybe it's one of those real-estate investments that went "underwater".

[no-to-illegals]

it sunk forever and always ...

[NicknamedBob]

Okay, “Jeopardy!” is over.

I still didn’t win any money.

[no-to-illegals]

you neither ... I’m always in the minus column.

[Darksheare]

*singing, terribly*
“I lost on Jeopardy, baby!”
