hey, no problem man. you have proven that you're a cool and intelligent person that is capable of carrying yourself well in many types of discussions. people like that guy are nothing...they like to attack people over nothing in order to account for their own insecurities. you're obviously above that, which makes you much more respectable.

Way to go, Yukon!

You're a great guy! That's all!

A bull moose, huh, John? Okay ... I'm going to be dumb here - is that a male moose? Does he just go around visitng people - like looking inside their doors?! He was really pretty but I had no clue as to what he was.

Well, my friend, I think you're going to get your wish and get Palin back. I know you have some issues with her --- and you are certainly very knowledgeable in the political arena --- but I was impressed, which is why I'm sitting here hoping for a miracle.

Take care, stay warm, and HUGS to you!

No, John --- I'm awake - had to watch this election. And, you are so sweet to always immediately answer those that post to you!

That is hilarious about that moose! Why is he a mean one? What does he do to be mean? That is just so funny to me. Can you imagine how we here in NC would feel if we saw one of these looking in our door? What happened to his mama moose? So he's third generation ... will he be hunted and eaten? Oh, I am such an animal person and actually like them better than most people, but do understand the food chain - don't like it but understand. We have a lot of deer on the island - hunting is not allowed but I'm afraid the powers that be are going to try to change that soon as more and more people are building here and with that, they try to create change ... you know, try to make us a little more civilized instead of living with nature.

Okay, my friend, I'm on my way to have scary dreams about the election. Hope you have a great evening!

John, you've got me scared...looking through comments I made at an ungodly hour. :)

No harm, no foul. I guess.

Good morning, frosty friend! A little something pleasant for us on this sobering morning at:

www.wral.com/golo/image/3899396

Have a good'un!

Hi Yukon -

The reason we went to Iraq in the first place is because Iraq reniged on their agreement to allow unlimited unhindered arms inspections. In truth, the UN should have stepped up, but because the UN is made up of some countries who shelter terrorists, the UN could not gather a concensus, so the Allied Forces, one of whom is the US, did.

That's what started it all.

Moving our troops out of the middle east is just going to open things up for more attrocities there. Do I want my nephew to be in harm's way? God forbid! But do I want terrorists to have stable homes where they can manufacture arms and plans so they can hit here on US soil again. Absolutely not!

And I don't ever want another defeated US troop to come home knowing they didn't finish the job. Our streets are filled with homeless sick and suffering Vietnam Vets. We don't need more of the poor souls from the middle east.

God bless.

Rev. RB

Well bud, you got your Sarah back.

Please keep her there.

Youkon, you staying warm up there?

Always good to hear from you. Good to hear about your weather too although it puts shivers up and down my spine just sitting here. It is supposed to be 80 here today. I love it. Sending you warm rays of sunshine and a hug. Have a great day today.

I'd be doing a lot of snuggling. :) Wrap up tight!

A barrel of fun! You Betcha'!!! *wink*

Happy One-Year-on-Golo Anniversary!!!! I'll bake you a cake and eat it all by myself.

Darlin all I can say is you must love it there or you would not have lived there so long. Me, I can't imagine living anywhere it gets below 0. When it gets to the teens it drives me to the covers. Stay warm and snuggle with the GF. Snuggle time would be the only thing to save me there.

Awesome!!! Have you ever been out to the Aleutian Islands? My Grandpa used to tell us WWII stories all the time about the Aleutians when I was a kid.

Hey there Yukon! You guys happy to have Sarah Palin back?

Awww, you are too kind Love, I give credit where credit is due and you deserve it. Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

I just read one of your posts (Alaska man says he accidentally stole a car) and then read your profile, you and I went in different directions after being in NC, I live in St Thomas Virgin Islands, you are quite a stretch away from here!!

Hey Thanks for the link, very cool, er uh COLD!!!

heehee....I've been reading the comments about the fire. My favorite is most of the streets are named after women. It's nice to know a woman can make her mark in this world!! LOL

How ya doing John baby?

It has been a beautiful day here at Atlantic Beach. Went fishing yesterday and mopped up on trout and mullet. Had to throw a lot of trout back because of their size. Just a good day to get out on the big pond. We've had good weather for a while, but a cold front is coming in tonight. Good homemade soup weather!

I like reading about the history of Alaska. I saw today that Alaska has some campgrounds I could host.lol If it wasn't so far away, I would certainly do it. Jim Cantorre (sp) a weather man, has been there doing documentaries, and will be shown, I believe, starting tomorrow night. I hope he doesn't turn out to be dinner for the bears, like the other dude. Of course, he won't be living with the bears, like Grizzly man did. I am intrigued with every aspect of Alaska. Lots of history there.

Have a great day yourself John, and if you go out tonight, bundle up good!!

Going good. Just spent the day at Fayetteville. They had the Hollyday Fair. My feet sure hurt though. Lots of exhibits and everything was expensive. Are you staying warm?

shirt sleeves my but! Unless those sleeves are in long johns, UNDER your clothes!! I noticed how gray the picture was on the cam, and figured it was getting time for your dark period of winter. I know that anyone living there doesn't feel the cold temps like us in the lower states would, but dang!! I've been watching the aurora cam, but nothing yet. Hopefully soon!!

Well ya need to come on south and get warmed up. Just seeing Lolly's comment about all the men up their beggin for women still give me the shivers. I think I will just stay here and take my chances. The chill bump look is not a good one for me. LOL

I thought we were already friends... You left my blog and we were having fun. What happened? I asked you if you would melt on my tropical island. And then you left. What's the time difference there, anyway?

OK, so it's 3:45 in the afternoon. The internet is grand, isn't it?!

And look, mister... I don't want to see that green thing pop up the next time I click on your profile.

The freakin' "Let's Be Friends" thing... hahahahaaa! You are too funny.

Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah well, it got off track several times, but at least you are now my friend. That's all that matters.

I am having a great night..."you betcha!" *wink*

I like her, I really do. Thanks for your time.

Yukon, she doesn't have to explain herself to you or any Alaskan. If that is the case then you are all a bunch of freakin' nuts!

Like you speak for all of Alaska, I'll speak for all of Texas WE LOVE SARAH PALIN and if you and alaska won't appreciate her WE TEXANS WILL!!!!!

SO BRING IT!

62% of the Alaskan people voted for Palin/McCain.

We do things different in Texas, too.

Yukon, All I am saying is she is not an errand child that needs to be whipped for going astray. Which is what you sound like to me. Palin did not meet up to your expectations, and now she needs a spanking.

WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She is a grown woman...fully capable....and she does not have to answer to YOU are anyone else. If you "Alaskans" do things so differently from everyone else, then maybe she should relocate to someplace else where she is TRULY APPRECIATED!!!!!

Trust me the "lower states" love her.

well John it made it to 4% so I guess that's a good day now. LOL Have a good evening and give Sarah a Rest before you get after her. She needs to let you guys know why she switched so negative on the trail as opposed to giving solutions.She probably did all she could to not go crazy on there with all those stubborn hard nosed GOP's

you guys are warming up it's 3% LOL have a good one

Morning -- lived "next door" , per say, to you for awhile , as I settled in Hoke county & raised 3 kids before separating & moving to Cary . Nice country between Hoke & Moore , but I really like it better in Cary . So , are you there by choice or a job ?

Thanks for responding . Had a brother stationed at Ft Richardson , who got out & stayed in AK ,--- but , he has distant himself from the family. Anyway, checked my Atlas & you are up there ! whew ! I just retired from the PO , and finally looking forward to snow w/o having to get out & work in it. aaah !

Looked up your cam website -- Glad you get down here . Must be a nice job to be able to get that much time off. My dad was in the army & retired at Ft Bragg. I married & raised 3kids , but it wasn't working from the beginning , so we finally called it quits. Remember going to Carhage to get our marriage license as we got married in Aberdeen. lol My daughter now works in Vass , but has a Carthage address. Really enjoy your thoughts on the golo. would be nice to meet you next time you're in this area . oh , lost my dad over 4 yrs ago -- he was one special man -- so glad we had become best buddies in his later years. He gave me his love of life & people. Miss him terribly --

hope i'm not bothering you too much today. just curious , as the time different there - as to here . thanks !

Thanks for replying . I figured it was either 3 or 4 hrs. Hope your day is going well . It will be a comfortable 61 here today.

thanks - brr !! the last year i lived in Germany -- we had "highs" of 15 below zero !! if you would like to just email -- i'm @hotmail hope you don't have to put anyone in jail

Hello Yukon *HUGS* OMG -8!!! That will send more then shrivers up my spine *LOL* I freeze here now a days. Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!!

thanks , yes , I checked it out the other day & truly enjoyed the webs . love the picture of Mt McKinney. Stay warm -- sending you (((((( hugs ))))) from the warmth of NC !! :>

Watch Out...you are in for a heat wave Saturday...0 to 10 above *LOL* I was clicking around that page...

OMG You are just so brave...I could never nor want to imagine being that cold...I kept thinking how I would love a Cruise around Alaska BUT dang

TGIF my friend. Have a great weekend! And say hi to Sarah for me, hope she doesn't let the national politics go to her head...
