Lol, sounds like my niece. She was born here in Alaska and the weather has NO effect on her. She wears shorts in the coldest months. We are the complete opposites of each other. How are you liking Skagway, Rainy?

It's pretty much okay; I work a lot. I was through here years ago but other than that haven't spent time here at all. I do feel more at home here than...on POW...it wasn't until the ferry got a little North of Sitka that I really felt I was back in Alaska.

About the original question here, single life, the populated areas have a fairly balanced ratio of the sexes. That's why I always think it's weird when women hot foot it up here looking for a man and make a beeline for Anchorage. I think that these days both Palmer and Juneau actually have more women than men.

If a woman can't find a guy where she's at now, she probably won't find one here. Those sorts of issues are not really matters of geography. Single guys who live in the more remote areas may have to try a little harder.

If you're a single guy in AK looking for some female company, you gotta get to Anchorage. Not only do the numbers favor you ratio-wise, but if you can dress yourself in something besides rubber overalls and refrain from even the most anti-social behavior you've got a big leg up on a lot of the schmoes out there on the permanently single scene.

When I was working at Providence hospital most all the nurses there were looking for a decent, staple, unmarried non-gay fella, without much success. Of course, if you're planning on dating intelligent and mostly attractive women with good jobs and a decent work ethic, it helps to have the same yourself. Either that or look like Fabio's better-looking younger brother and wear your shirts unbuttoned a lot.

You can't imagine the warmth and brightness of the sun here and the resourcefullness of the curved sunglasses that protect us from revealing our eyes, as we are gaze at a hot latin tica passing by on the sidewalk with my main squeeze in hand and these plastic marvels of technology that keep me from getting a smooth tactfully placed elbow in the ribs from my beautiful love of my life.

As someone once said you can read the menu but you don't have to order.

Pura Vida de Amor.

Dose anyone have a good website for Alaskan crime statistics, rental costs, and more?
