Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

I was poking around on Netflix last night and stumbled upon a 6 part Discovery Channel documentary. I've watched part of it, and it's pretty cool. A little dramatized, but that's kind of normal these days. It's pretty interesting to watch, and it definitely makes me want to move to Alaska and race. Seriously, I want to move to Alaska...

It's at least available on Netflix streaming (how I'm watching it), and probably available on DVD as well. Called "Iditarod: Toughest Race on Earth", and follows the 2008 race.

I've watched parts of it and really enjoyed it. Dogs liked watching the other dogs on tv too!

Meredith, we can be neighbors in Alaska, I want to move there once I finish grad school!

There is a documentary called Pretty Sled Dogs that is about an all siberian iditarod team that I also liked.

We watched the whole thing over a few days, it was very interesting! Isis would go up to the tv and look whenever she heard barking. Although, her very favorite show is Meerkat Manor lol!

Sounds like a plan! I got 3 days off in the middle of a deployment in Anchorage 2 years ago. I fell in love. It's an amazing place, and contrary to popular belief Chicago has a worse winter than Anchorage because of the ocean currents.

Seriously, if the Navy tells me no on this med school thing, I will go to the Air Force and see if I can get picked up for their program. Then I can try to scam orders to Elmendorf AFB (just outside Anchorage).

I'll have to check out Pretty Sled Dogs as well, thanks for the suggestion!

I haven't quite watched the whole thing yet but I love that series! I wish they would do another one...and maybe one for sprint racing--that would be cool!
