Iditarod 2017 – Day 7
Ryan Anderson (8) scratched at Galena with 10 puppies in harness. This is bad news for Ellen Halverson as she gets back the Red Lantern and she has no need for a third one as she is already in the record book as the only person to receive two.
The preliminary report on the death of the dog Smoke during transport indicates that overheating is the probable cause of death.

Daylight Savings Time
Just to screw up your life, don’t forget that Congress has stolen 2:00 to 2:59AM Sunday from you. They should at least have the decency to wait until the equinoxes to do this sort of thing. There’s barely enough daylight to do what needs to be done, much less save.
It’s a government conspiracy to make you late for church 😈
