As the Holiday Season is upon us, my mind turns to what was once referred to in Old English as 'Christes Masse' - the Festival of Christ. Of course, these days, that holiest of days is less a celebration of the Messiah and more of consumerism... 
But you know, who am I to judge? Today's Playstation 5 is yesterday's frankincense and myrrh...
Beyond being a time of anxiously awaiting to see what old St. Nick has stuffed in your stocking, this is also a time of storytelling.

I don't know about you guys, but I've become a bit obsessed with politics lately. And it's a bit ironic, of course, because I'm not even allowed to vote. As you may recall, many years ago I spent some time in the State pen back in West Virginny for boosting a '71 Firebird...
...and well, that left me as a sort of persona non grata with respect to election participation. So, like some forbidden fruit, I'm now drawn to the process, perhaps moreso, because of my inability to partake. But despite my inability to cast a vote, I'm not short on opinions.
Good Sunday morning, Cicely -
It's a brisk 31 degrees out there this morning so get your java brewing, wrap yourself up in your favorite blanket and set a spell while we watch that big ol' sun rise...#northernexposure (thread)

With these cold nights now descending upon us, the leaves have started their annual fireworks show, and I'm reminded that while we busy ourselves with our lives, our jobs, our little fights and disputes, this blue-green orb we live on is going to just keep turning on its axis...
Now, back in West Virginia, my Uncle Roy Bower used to look up at the stars and planets and the immensity of it all and just get overwhelmed. Maybe this is why he kept ending up in the pokey - the confined space and regimented schedule was more to his liking...
Buenos dias, Cicely -
So I owe everyone an explanation and an apology. Several months ago the toxicity of everything going down, including on this little blue-bird site, started jamming up my chakras in a way I'd not felt in a long time. #northernexposure (thread).

As you may remember, the last time I felt that way, I jumped on the Harley & let her take me as far away as she would go, got naked, crawled into a cave & blissed out on enough peyote to stun a small bull.

While I don't have a clear recollection of how well that worked last time, let's just say that it failed pretty dismally THIS time. As it turns out, you can't run away from your problems, and you can't run away from the world's problems either.
From economy to psychology, from environment to diplomacy, what happens in the U.S. election will have a profound impact on Canada. thestar.com/news/world/202…

Late last week, Canadian and American authorities were confirming the inevitable continuation of the border shutdown between the two countries that has been in place since March. thestar.com/news/world/202…
Hey hey, Cicely
It's a groggy Chris in the Morning coming at you from 57AM K-B-H-R.
I don't know about you, but that ol' moon had my dreams spinning wild last night. (1/n) #northernexposure

A quick check of my Farmer's Almanac reminded me that last night was a super-moon - and that's not just hyperbole...it's a verified scientific phenomenon. Our little pasty planetary kid sister is this closest she'll be to us and last night - she sure put on a show...(2/n)
The full moon of April is also known as the Pink Moon - owing to the little pink wildflowers that are busting out left and right. (3/n)
Good Morning, Cicely!
It’s getting to be that day here, folks, when the Grim Reaper meets Myles Standish and death’s head pumpkins abound. Thread. #northernexposure #chrisinthemorning #thanksgiving

Yes, Cicely we’re fast approaching the 4th Thursday of November – that day Ms. Sarah J. Hale promoted into the hallowed halls of holiday-hood....Thanksgiving.
Word of caution to all us white folks out there - the tomatoes are starting to fly.
WHOA – Mike just got nailed right outside the KBHR studio!

Hola Cicely,
Chris in the Morning here to help you greet the day! It's a cold one out there this morning, so bundle up before you head out. Let's do a little rundown of some local news...(thread) #northernexposure

The Cicely Lady Marmots basketball team have their first home game tonight over at the high school. Let's cheer them on and hope that they can win a game this year. They just haven't been the same since Leia Wingfeather left to play point guard at the University of Alaska...
But make sure you're careful when you're driving home - the weatherman says we're going to get our first real snow this evening & it's not supposed to let up til Sunday. So stock up on your provisions post haste. Ruth-Anne says she still has a few VHS tapes left you can rent...
Morning Cicelians,
Chris in the Morning getting you up a little earlier than usual, this morning. I've got a busy day ahead - so do you. So, get that coffee on, whip up that bacon, knock those cobwebs off the ceiling...(thread) #northernexposure

While you're doing all of that, what do you think of the words of Thom Paine who said, "Man did not enter this society to be worse off than he was before, or to have fewer rights than he had before, but to have those rights better secured" ?
When it comes to the right of the mind, he never surrendered. The mind - that wonderful breeding ground of contradictory impulses like, love and hate, rage and empathy. They've all been invited to the party, so you might as well make room for them...
'Trick or treat' to our KBHR listeners from yours truly, Chris Stevens, on this All Hallows Eve. (Thread)

For those of you who celebrate the holiday by acting out the Visigoth spirit, or who are planning some egg throwing or out-house tipping, I have an important police bulletin - please be advised. Alaska's own Inspector Javert, Officer Barbara Semanski is on the prowl...
...having succumbed to the blandishments of love. She's given Maurice a reprieve and is currently be squired somewhere in the vicinity. Congrats Maurice!
Rise and shine, Cicely!
Here's a heartfelt 'Thanks' to Holling for letting us watch the World Series last night at the Brick. We all know how much he hates sports & would rather we had watched that Jacques Pepin special on PBS instead. (thread on baseball) #NorthernExposure.

If Holling has taught me one thing, it's that 'male bonding' doesn't have to be over a beer and a game on the tube...it can be watching a nature special, or maybe trying to catch a photograph of an elusive Blackpoll warbler...
And yet, there is just something about baseball. As many of you know, my master's thesis was a deconstructionist / post-colonial reading of the Thayer classic 'Casey at the Bat' which I successfully defended on our very own snowy baseball diamond...so yeah, I'm invested.
Rise and shine Cicely!
Big news! Tonight is the fall recital at The Brick featuring our very own Cal Ingraham who is on furlough from the Sleetmute Correctional Facility to perform a selection of Bach concertos for us! (Thread on creativity) #northernexposure

Maurice has been kind enough to let Cal borrow the 1778 Guarneri del Gesu violin he purchased several years ago to perform upon. And for those of you worried, Officer Semanski will be on hand in case there are any shenanigans...
Listening to Cal always gets me in the mood to express my own artistic creativity in some crazed and inspired way. As Picasso said, "The chief enemy of creativity is 'good' sense." So who could blame Cal for trying to blow up Maurice when he first held his prized del Gesu?
Good morning, Cicely!
A little local news to start off this fine October morning: Ruth Anne accidentally ordered too many avocados this month, so is running a sale: 75% off! The Brick is celebrating with a Guacamole Celebration and 2 for 1 margaritas. (Thread). #northernexposure

In other news, Eve thanks everyone for all the well wishes she received after announcing her self-diagnosis of Q fever last week. Layla, the goat suspected of possessing the transmissible Coxiella burnetii infection, is in quarantine & she & Eve are on doxycycline...again.
I need to apologize for being gone last week and want to thank Maurice for filling in for me. I know everyone loved that Rodgers and Hammerstein marathon. I’ll certainly be humming ‘Oklahoma’ for weeks to come...
Rise and shine, Cicely!
A little local news first. Everyone start driving a bit slower down main street if you don't mind. As you all know, our resident moose Louise is getting up in years and suffers a bit with arthritis...(thread) #NorthernExposure

Well, it looks like Louise has decided to move into town this winter to make her life a bit easier (don't worry, we're setting out hay bails for her in the park). So tap those brakes when you hit the city limits and keep an eye out for the old girl...
In other news, in honor of #NationalComingOutDay, Ron and Erick are hosting a free brunch out at the Sourdough Inn this morning at 10:30. The theme this year is a celebration of the legacy of Cicely and Roslyn, our very own founding mothers...
