Alaska Darin Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 Anchorage Style Some of you will be surprised to see cars instead of dog sleds and houses instead of igloos. Don't fret.

Don't fret. 210797[/snapback] What are those line thingies above the roofs of the cars? They seem to run on forever. Northern lights are unbelievable to see. I can remember two times that buddies and myself were heading home from the bars/breakfast and saw the lights. Freaked our drunk asses out.

There wasn't another thread on the first page when I posted this one - Mead bumped it after...
IDBillzFan Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 Classic line from John Hiatt's "Icy Blue Heart." "He said 'Girl you're a beauty like I've never witnessed. And I've seen the Northern Lights dance on the air. But I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss. And there's not enough heat in the fires burning there... To melt your icy blue heart.' "
