Life Observation # 161

This was the only time in history when being a weatherman in Alaska was NOT the easiest job in the world. Most Alaskan weathermen were fired that day because they didn't have a word to describe the temperature. The current official state motto of Alaska is "North to the future". The unofficial state motto in wintertime is "South to somewhere warm!" Ice
