I made the mistake of turning on the TV today. I found the Inside Edition show exclaiming, "And they really eat MOOSE!"
I'm sure this is just the tip of the iceberg. I'm both dreading and looking forward to all the stupid misconceptions that are going to be spouted by reporters. It's going to be annoying and hilarious at the same time!
Maybe people in the Lower 48 will finally realize that we don't all drive sled dogs everywhere, that we don't live in igloos and we put our pants on one leg at a time, just like everyone else.
As long as they don't start to think it's like California or even Oregon or Washington, that's fine. Ugh. I'd hate to see a whole new wave of people come up here only to build their houses that are too large to heat. Then they have to sell them, and move back to Utah or whatever, because they can't remake Alaska into suburbia...either that or they can move to Wasilla!
