Where is Sarah?
Just got back from the MLK celebration downtown. No Sarah, of course. Bill McAllister was there .. shame on him. How can a man who is part black support this woman who brought about such hatred towards blacks during her VP run? Perhaps Carol Comeau should run for gov! She is an amazing leader who shows up for so many meaningful events. She saw the problems that bush Alaska is suffering, while SP does silly interviews with the conservative media. Where is our leader????

I’ll just put in one additional plug for DC mudstock for any DC locals who might be reading this – there will be forum regulars, blog lurkers, and everything in between at the get-together. Please contact me at the address AKM providesdabove if you want details!

We will be doing a raffle fundraiser in the spirit of National Service Day. We hope to have a good amount to donate to help rural Alaskans – and we will do it in the name of AKM and Mudflats!

I didn’t get an answer at the Calista number but there is an open door and a sign on the building saying that they are accepting donations until 630 pm today. Its 301 Calista Circle-Dimond to King to Calista. Near Costco.

So, truth is, I have blogged only one place (or threads to other blogs to buzz up something going on here). I like the anonymity while speaking of something I know about….Alaska….as well as learning more. Facebook is not about anonymity, so I don’t know how that will work. But I signed up on Facebook again, this time using my Mud name. Not sure I get the FB thingy, but will give it a try. I rarely get to the Forum, tho I would like to, so may not use FB much either. This obsession on Mudflats is hard enough to explain to my family. Besides having a Mom & Pop business to run, being one of those awful community organizers, running a household and keeping track of 3 teenagers, I can’t say I’m in jammies as much as I would like.

Thanks for all you do — really remarkable job during the campaign and doesn’t look like you’ll get a break soon.

Aussie Blue Sky, thanks for the link to that APRN story. I missed it — the transmitter on our local public radio station blew up again a few days ago and we’re missing the real Alaskan news (as opposed to what the ADN decides to publish as news).

In that radio story, it mentioned that the people in Pt. Lay sent some beluga to Emo. Now, you guys, don’t get all pushed out of shape. There are lots of belugas in that area; that isn’t the endangered Cook Inlet population. My Yup’ik friends tell me that beluga is a food of the gods. Okay?
