Gripe of the Day

Here I am signing onto my first posting, and google, or whoever, chose to rouse my anger. Some people out there don't know that Alaska is part of the union. When I got to 'state' the default entered "U.S. Virgin Islands" as the country, like we're a territory. Nope, we've been a state since 1957. I'd been wanting to come to Alaska since the mid-forties, but it took a while. In 1966, the opportunity came, and so did I. By the way, the U.S. post office doesn't always know we're here either, as they think we're a foreign country. No way!
