Well I am finally escaping the lower 48 and moving to Alaska. Land of moose, midnight Sun and largest vegetables in the world.
Looks like somewhere around Anchorage and perhaps even the Palins home town of Wasilla. It's kind of a banana belt, it stays above 0 most of the winter.
I can but .50 cal hand guns and weapon magazines with more than 10 rounds, current limit in California.
No state income tax and they actually pay you to live there.
I have heard that I can Russia from kitchen window and see the northern lights.

DOOM Movie Nite in Alaska!
In the Tudor Period, Fencing Masters were classified in the Vagrancy Laws along with Actors, Gypsys, Vagabonds, Sturdy Rogues, and the owners of performing bears.

...to Dan's frozen wasteland.
Tell Sarah she has to run for president because the Republican Party is low on candidates. The population of ak is less than San Jo so I'm sure you'll run into her at Walmart

I can't wait to party with her family, a bunch of the live in Wasilla, a suburb of Anchorage. We're gonna get drunk and shoot stuff. I will have to carry a bear gun with me at all times. Sometimes they are just coming right for you.

Just don't shoot the boneless bear. He's our friend. Even if he can't tell Asian males from Asian females without his glasses.

I just had dinner with a travel nurse who worked up in Alaska. She sausage used to put ice spikes on in the winter and run on the rivers. Very strange folks. I will fit right in.

All I know of Alaska is Sarah Palin and that annoying kid who died in "Into the Wild" (one of the few movies I was glad when the protaganist died).
I wonder if any Alaskan cruises layover enough to storm the Legbone enclosure. If not, I think a DOOM road-trip is in order.

Quote:Man in Bear Costume Hassles Actual Bears in Alaska

Police in Anchorage, Alaska, are searching for a man in a full-body, "fairly realistic" bear costume who was seen harassing several actual bears feeding on salmon in a river.
The Associated Press reported that "it wasn't immediately known what the man was trying to accomplish."
Alaska Fish and Game Assistant Area Management Biologist Mark Sogge told the AP that the incident occurred at a weir (an artificial obstruction placed in a river and used to trap or count fish) in the Chilkoot River, where a crowd had gathered to watch a bear and two cubs feed on the salmon.
The man, wearing a full-body bear costume, ran through the crowd, getting dangerously close to the cubs. A Fish and Game employee attempted to speak with the man, who refused to identify himself, telling the employee, "You have the license plate number. You figure it out," before driving off without bothering to remove the costume head.
Troopers are investigating, and the man could face wildlife harassment charges. Bizarrely, spokeswoman Megan Peters told the AP, "This is not the first time we've encountered a man in a bear suit."

That would be the above incident, captured on the now-canceled Alaska State Troopers reality TV show, in which a man in a bear suit was filmed resisting arrest. He was later shown to have a pair of nunchaku concealed in his bear suit.

Should we start a pool on how long it takes before he is violated by a bear?

Drat, I meant to post this on the AK thread, but I did it via my iPhone where everything is super tiny, at least for my old eyes. :oops:

True story: ppfy once sent dm that very postcard with a veiled threat if dm didn't stop making fun of ppfy'a bonelessness.
You think dm don't remember, don't you, boneless ppfy? But dm remembers. Dm remembers every single cut.
