Summer Bummer

Posted by Exer on Thursday, July 1st, 2010

We’ve been having rain, rain and more rain the past couple weeks. Looks like it may be a typical wet Alaskan summer. Not that I should be all that bothered by it, since I’m not actually working outdoors at the moment. What do I really have to complain about, mowing the grass too often? I [...]

Alaska isn’t always a winter wonderland, covered in feet of snow. We are a green, green state, for a few amazing months of summer.

Puppy Tales

Posted by Exer on Thursday, June 10th, 2010

OK, well he isn’t exactly a puppy anymore, but that doesn’t stop me from calling him “pup” every now and again. Whenever my mom stops by to visit she calls him “grandpa”, but that’s just because she is evil and likes to pick on helpless animals. Yup. Anyway, here is my PUP out enjoying the [...]

Posted by Exer on Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

This little lady decided to land on my brothers hand while we worked on his car in the driveway. She wasn’t in any hurry to fly away, so we grabbed a camera and decided to try out the macro lens.

If You Musk

Posted by Exer on Sunday, April 18th, 2010

Every day is a lazy day for a muskox at the Alaska Zoo. It must be a lonely life. I went with my cousin, who kept saying things like “They want to be free!” every time we would reach a new exhibit. It annoyed me at the time, but looking back on the photos I [...]

Spooky Creature Endangered By Superstition

Friday, March 26th, 2010

Spooky creature endangered by superstition – Discovery.com- msnbc.com. I have to admit, this is one of the most sinister looking creatures I’ve ever seen, but after reading the article all I feel is sadness that there are still living, breathing animals out there being killed simply for how they look.

Giant Spiders Could Be a Result of Global Warming : EcoWorldly

Friday, May 8th, 2009

Giant Spiders Could Be a Result of Global Warming : EcoWorldly. Well this is probably my worst nightmare.  The day giant spiders have taken over the planet is a day I’ll gladly be struck by lightning.

Worst answer in history?

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Well apparently the Miss USA pageant was on yesterday.  I hadn’t even known about it.  Didn’t this used to be a pretty  big deal?  I honestly don’t remember seeing a single advertisement anywhere on TV leading up to the ‘event’, but oh well, that isn’t what I wanted to talk about.  My attention was caught [...]

Kiss My Ash

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

So if anyone has been watching the news lately you may have  noticed that Alaska has been experiencing some strange natural phenomenon.  A volcano, to be specific.  Now I realize that when someone thinks of Alaska they probably don’t automatically start imagining lava spouting volcanoes, but we do have volcanoes up here.  A lot of [...]

Daddy who?

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

So apparently Bristol Palin and her “babydaddy” broke it off.  There was a newspaper article that quoted Bristol as saying they decided “awhile ago” to end things.  I, for one, am not at all surprised.  Did anyone honestly see them sticking together?  Perhaps I’m just cynical, but it “seemed” to me that they were almost [...]
