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.

There don’t seem to be very many people around at the moment.
Let’s ping everybody to it, just for the fun of it.

See, this is my lament. Didn't anybody notice that big, beautifull moon last night? You would all make lousy vampires or werewolves, I can tell you.

[moose07]

Nope, no sign of the Moon, it was raining.

[NicknamedBob]

Oh man. I hate that wet werewolf smell.

I was so far asleep it wasn’t funny. I watched “Percy Jackson, Lightening Thief” last night, and didn’t venture out until this morning. My bad.

The fuel pump came, so now all I have to do is find someone to install it. Wish me luck. Son-in-law won’t do it, and I think partly because my daughter is telling him not to. That’s OK. I’m a firm believer in Karma.

It will be a quiet day here, and quite hot, the weather prognosticator sez. 110 for the high.

[null and void]

I am not here.

[Monkey Face]

Neither am I.

[moose07]

Okay, not seen either of you...
Back under cover. :)

[Monkey Face]

I have clothes to fold and put away and I don’t want to.

As for being seen, well, this is Sunday, and I’ve got the S-L-O-W-s.
