And Nate plays the surly pregnant dogy veteran who should have retired 15 years ago...

If you were a good son you'd take care of your dad.

I figured you would feel good, after akmnster headed for "points south"  

Dude.  I've been thinking about this post and how to respond for a while.  The truth is I have left Sno-duc with a tremendous burden.   Now that I am gone and he is the only Alaskan on the DMF and it is up to him alone to represent the largest state in the union.  This isn't one of those little states, like Texas, that has many members to report on what is going on.  It is now entirely up to sno-duc to carry on with wrestling brown bears, catching salmon with his teeth, driving huskies, coming up with Sarah Palin jokes, scraping the pegs on his duc in Turnagain Pass and in general spinning lies about the Alaskan lifestyle.  

Sno-duc, I'm sorry to abandon you up there.  Wish we had been able to get together for that ride.

Zltful, I hope you make it up there.  If you do, I'm sure that you will carry on the tradition of the hard living, hard riding, and adventurous Alaskan Monster riders.  Toughest breed and biggest BSers of them all.

Good luck man!

I'd love to move up there....even looked at several jobs (well paying jobs for what I do)


The wife ended up vetoing me on it though....she doesn't like her feet to get cold

Christmas is coming.  Get her a fashionable pair of bunny boots.  They will keep her feet warm.  Bunny boots
are like Levis in the far north, always in fashion.  And after she opens the present, tell her your moving north and she will
never have cold feet.

Just get her a gift card from 'Army Navy' on 5th Ave. She can pick out her own arctic gear.

Well the first phone interview went well...hard to judge reactions over a phone but we will see.

Just kind of buckling down and seeing what happens now...

Damn, wish I'd know you were about to have the interview.  There were a few pointers I could have passed on; like, bring up how much you like Salmon and look forward to fishing (you insert the salmon topic where in a normal interview you would discuss golf).  And the space where you would normally talk about football you talk about the Iditarod.  A little research in those areas would go a long way in your next interview.  Well, I'm sure that you did well even without those tips.  Hope you get the job.

it's hard to read people's faces when you answer questions over the phone
