glacier_kittyYesterday mom and I went up to Esther Dome. It was a clear (though hazy) day and we could see the Alaska Range..most of it had clouds but not Mt. McKinley! There were no clouds AT ALL..that must be rather rare. The people at Denali yesterday were lucky..though in the afternoon it clouded up on the mountain again (we went up to the college to see). As we were driving back down we saw this guy and he wanted a ride so mom let him. I thought I was gonna get murdered! Sure he was nice but I didn't know him..
Last night I went out to eat and I shall put what it said on the placemat haha
Ode to an Oosik
Strange things have been done in the Midnight Sun,
and the story books are full---
But the strangest tale concerns the male,
magnificent walrus bull!
I know it's rude, quite common and crude,
Perhaps it is grossly unkind;
But with first glance at least, this bewhiskered beast,
is as ugly in front as behind.
Look once again, take a second look -- then
you'll see he's not ugly or vile --
There's a hint of a grin, in that blubbery chin --
and the eyes have a shy secret smile.
How can this be, this clandestine glee
that exudes from the walrus like music?
He knows, there inside, beneath blubber and hide
lies a splendid contrivance -- the Oosik!
"Oosik" you say -- and quite well you may,
I'll explain if you keep it between us;
In the simplest truth, though rather uncouth
"Oosik" is, in fact, his penis!
Now the size alone of this walrus bone,
would indeed arouse envious thinking --
It is also a fact, documented and backed,
There is never a softening or shrinking!
This, then, is why the smile is so sly,
the walrus is rightfully proud.
Though the climate is frigid, the walrus is rigid,
Pray, why, is not man so endowed?
Added to this, is a smile you might miss ---
Though the bull is entitled to bow --
The one to out-smile our bull by a mile
is the satisfied walrus cow!

Date: 2008-08-13 11:02 pm (UTC)That's amazing that you got to see Mt. McKinley without any clouds. I bet it was like something indescribable. Haha I was worried at times with taking rides from people in Puerto Rico, but we tried to stick to two basic rules: Only take rides from Americans (preferably females), or try to get a ride with someone who has a pickup truck (so you can just jump in the back and make an easy escape if need be haha). I'm glad you guys were okay though. :)
