lol! I was only two sips into my coffee this morning, not far from the floor at allOriginally Posted by bigsandy
Nice trick there with the double dip ... sigh ... I think you're right about the day of reckoning, these little town hall meetings could back fire on them ... I have visions of pitch forks and torches ... Wait, maybe I am still dreaming ...
Thanks for giving everybody my last name, lol! I am going to edit it...No problem. No, not any relatives that I know of......laughing hard. I fixed it.
I don't know if I could get the wife to go for it, but I haven't asked her either. She likes cloudy weather and snow. She almost flew up to Dutch Harbor once to meet me while we were offloading for a couple of days. Then my parents almost met me in Dutch Harbor on an offload. I told them all that it was a gunslingers town and that it might not be too smart. Besides, we worked 16 hours a day when offloading and there isn't much time for entertaining or entertainment. Even we big boys travel together there for support. It is a mighty rough place.
I would like to live in a more civilized location. Anchorage is pretty cool from what I have seen, but I have never been out of the airport there. I used to live in Juneau and I loved that!

LOL...sorry about that...if they only knew what my last name was....and with 5 kids....I wouldnt hear the end of it!!!!
Anchorage is like any other city in America...heck we even get the occasional drive by...we have a bunch of wannabe's gangsters around here...
Village life can be tough...I moved to Barrow in 78, there were no other asians there before us....I at least had the right skin color...the white folks had it rough....times have changed though...I have many Native relatives....my only grandpa I have ever known is white, born and raised in Michigan....Ok Im getting to personal now...LOL....I have been told I am too nice of a guy....

I think you're safe in this forum Bill. Although Ive only let two of you know even my first name (no my parents did not name me Shots), so who am I to talk.
You are a great guy! Yep, they would get a kick out of your last name. I think it is a cool name.
Wannabe gangsters in Anchorage...geez, what next? You are Asian then...what country? You look Native Alaskan to me. You sure have a beautiful family!

You are probably right...About half this forum and I email each other.
I know your last name. Shotski. Now everybody knows. It isn't a mystery anymore.

I get that "you look Native" comment alot. I am so in tune with the Alaska Native Culture...I lived it and also work in it.......Im Filipino..born in San Diego (Navy brat) and raised in Barrow.....I think were all decendents of the same people....we just stayed behind...the others crossed over the Bering Land Bridge to Alaska!!! Google it...theres some interesting stuff on it.....The comment about Sarah Palin seeing Russia from her back porch...well you can actually see Russia from there.....LOL
nm i figured it out (excel problem)
ty
I have read all about that. For instance they say that the American Indians are really Vietnamese. I studied some of that in Anthropology in college. That is all really interesting study.
I have never been as far North in Alaska as you, at least on land. The only thing North of Barrow is water and that would be in just a few feet away. I was a Marine Corps brat.

You guy's are cracking me up today!
Had computer issues as well (forgetting now who mentioned the same and BTW - My balances are all jacked up as well ... only because I buy the best quality stocks)
Having the former puter issues, I jumped on a second machine earlier and didn't realize why I couldn't shake this De Javu of how familar it all sounded, then I discovered I was reading Tuesday's postings ... What was that you said about the mental facilites Bill?
Think that got cut off somewhere .. It should read at the bottom,No kidding....NITE is running out of shares from what I can ascertain. Here is a post from miggle.
Here you go.
The website should be complete by next week and the share structure will be updated at the end of the month at the latest.
