Alaska News

More interesting news from Anchorage:

• Adria and I would periodically see a guy dancing on the same street corner in Anchorage. Turns out that the newspaper did a little profile on him a while back.
  
• Articles about the weather like this one are interesting because they usually provoke comments suggesting that Al Gore is a liar
  
• What do you do if you come home to find a dead moose in your yard? Put it up on Craigslist of course.
  
• Here is an article about moose rummaging through people's garbage and how to stop moose from doing that
  
• Headline: Couple comes home to find bear inside
  
• Sometimes people tease Oregon State fans about having a beaver as a mascot because beavers aren't viewed as fierce (this despite having some of the largest incisors around). Hopefully this article will settle the dispute once and for all of "Who would win in a fight between a dog and a beaver?"
  
• And in a follow-up to the robbery of some trick-or-treaters on Halloween, the perpetrators of the crime have pleaded guilty and are awaiting sentencing.
