My name is Dan Wall. I live in Utqiagvik (Barrow), AK, which is the heart of my claims to great Northiness. In times past, I lived in Northern Arizona and worked on the Navajo Nation, but I always wanted to live on a beach, …at least I think I did. Just consider me the bearded cat-lady of the arctic.
I used to be a bilagáana, now I am a tanik, but my girlfriend just calls me a gringo. She could probably tell you I’m no good in either event. I live to head-butt kittens, and my greatest accomplishment in life is probably an incident of projectile vomiting. (Don’t skoff! It was brilliant.)
Mostly I teach for my food, but there was a brief period when I pushed puppies for a living (first pet’s free kids). I like spicy foods, foreign movies, RPGs, and bad jokes.
This blog has one theme and one thing only, whatever the Hell I feel like writing about at any given moment. That is all.

I’m glad you liked a post on thebigpicturereport.com. I looked at your blog and like your style and sense of humor, and I’m adding your site to my blogroll.

Concurring with Arlen about “your style and sense of humor”, which are verging on being naughtierthanthou 😉
Happy Sunday to you!

Thank you Arlen. I have enjoyed an awful lot of your material actually. Keep up the good work.

Hello, Dan! Thanks for visiting Hooked and leaving a trail to lead me back to your blog. Your title alone got a chuckle, and your first few posts showed me that we’ve got some simpatico values. Nice to meet you, friend.

Thanks for adding a comment on “Politics and Cardigans”! I appreciate you! You won me over with this quote from one of your politics quotes,
“First I must confess that I was reading Glenn Beck’s website. …I’ve done dumber things in my life. I just can’t think what they would be.”

Hey northier! I’m southier than just about everyone so i guess we got a whole world of difference between us. So, how come I’m nodding to the stuff you write? I guess true genius cries out for companionship and can be heard a world away…or was it the sound of your projectile vomit? I never perfected that. I heave quietly into the bowl and dont even wake the wife! I’m so repressed. 😦
Thanks for commenting on my blog.
danielwalldammit said:
Ah, so together we have the rest of the world sandwiched. Let them hope neither of us needs to regurgitate!
wawbat said:
Dan
A few things you’ve mentioned in your blog got me to puzzlin’ and a cursory google search answered two of my questions: “what do you teach? and at what level?”
Still, I have some things I’d like to ask you off-blog. If you’re open to that, shoot me an email (wawbat at gmail dot com)
Thanks,
wawbat
danielwalldammit said:
Hi wabat,
Good to hear from you. I will send you that email this afternoon.

Nice digs! Thanks for checking out my blog.
simplycarola said:
Haha, Dan, I had to laugh at “the bearedd catlady of the arctic”, and, of course, I had to look up Bilagaana and Tanik. Now I sort of half-know. BTW, after reading your Native-Indians-films entry I expect you’ve seen James Cameron’s Avatar? The same criticism (the Na’vi needed a white man to save themselves) was levelled at the storyline.
danielwalldammit said:
Ooh, good point about Avatar. I may have to work that in somehow. Hm…
Yeah, I’m a cat lady. My students all tease me about it. there aren’t too many cats up here, so it stands out even more.
writemepictures said:
Thanks for liking my World Tapir Day post! P.S. Totally know what you mean. Am typing one-handed cos there’s a cat lying on the other.
Norbert Haupt said:
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I checked out your “About” and was excited about Barrow, Alaska. I have always wanted to visit Barrow and the closest I ever got was Fairbanks in 1984. Then I saw the atheist connection and the more I poked around I found a kindred spirit. Keep writing about anything you damn feel like. You’re on my blogroll.
danielwalldammit said:
Thank you Norbert,
I hope you make it up here some day. If you ever get the chance late June or the 1st week of July is the time to be here.

Great blog, mate. I like your style and your subject matter.

Juliana Lightle said:
Thanks for liking Blood Quantum. I just do not “get” how obsessed people become over race and ethnicity and the hatred some eject because someone is not just like them. Guess this also goes for religion. As for me, when they gave out genes for religion, I think I did not receive any. AK is lovely but way too cold for me. I like heat, foodwise and climatewise or at least not too cold. You might like my recipes as well. I did not start out to blog re food but alas…
danielwalldammit said:
Thank you Juliana, I thought your poem was great. You illustrated the problems quite nicely. I wish i had it to show my old Dine’ students and see how they would react to your predicament. I will certainly check your website out again.
Food is the best!

Donald Miller said:
You’ve developed quite a large following, Dan. I have Chateau as my theme also. Myself, I find the default type color for the black background, which I also use, tough on the eyes. In case you’re interested you can get around that by using the next-to-white font color. I use white, but it makes the words invisible on the format screen–which can be a real pain.
danielwalldammit said:
Hey. thanks for the tip.
tukusigal said:
Hello. Thanks for liking my post. Your blog looks very interesting. I will read your posts slowly as I can’t read as fast as a native English speaker. I fly over Alaska every year when I go back to Japan. Once I landed at Alaska for connecting flights. The landscape I saw then was one of the most exotic ones ever. I was also shocked that the airport had a Japanese noodle shop.

Hi Tukisigal,
Sometime you should make a point to stay in Alaska. We actually have a pretty good Teriyaki and Sushi place in Barrow.

Hi Dan, thank you for liking my photo blog. I was an atheist myself for a few years until I kept meetng really ‘intelligent’ people [at least, in my opinion they were] who actually believed in God and I couldn’t understand why. So began my own journey to find out . I can guarantee that anyone who can lay aside their prejudices/mockery etc and come to the subject with an open and humble mind will find God, just as He has promised us. Eileen

Thanks for liking my recent post Memorial Day 2012. And you live in Barrow, Alaska?! Wow. I watched an episode of “Idiots Abroad” on the Science Channel and (without getting into the details because I’m sure you know them), it was amazing to watch.
danielwalldammit said:
Unfortunately, I haven’t seen the show in question. I may have experienced some of what it shows, but I don’t watch TV, so it’s a mystery to me.

Hi Dan,
I’ve actually been to Barrow (Here today, gone to Barrow) and lived to tell about it. I admire the fact that you live there and your sanity seems to be (mostly) intact. I subscribe to many blogs, but must confess that on most of them all I do is look at the pictures. Your’s is one of the few I actually read. Keep on truckin’….

Dan, thanks for visiting Hunga Dunga. Finally figured out how to access your blog. Am glad I did. Wonderful wit and writing. I never got northier than you, but pretty close. Used to teach in Allakaket/Alatna, so I do have an idea of what “north” really implies. Am enjoying picking post of yours at random. I applaud your attitude in the “about” section. I’d say we have much in common. Keep up the fine work. Stay warm

Thanks for stopping by my blog, MrMaxPics.and liking my post about Amanda. I read about your animal shelter job and I commend you on taking such an interest in strays. I was smiling with tears at the stories. The hardest thing we have ever done was decide to put one of our cats down. His name is Red but it got to the point where we couldn’t touch him without him crying in pain. His kidneys went bad then the rest of his body quickly shut down. I don’t know if I will ever be able to do it again. My wife and I have been taking care of and finding homes for stray cats for 30yrs. We have almost stopped in the last couple of years because of money and health problems. We just took in a new cat though. I’ve posted about her and her babies.The neighbors do like that lady that brings kittens to the shelter year after year. We hope to be able to convince her to get the cats that are left around her house spayed or neutered if we offer to help. Your descriptions of your travels is very good. I had an uncle that lived outside of Anchorage for about 20yrs. until the early 90’s. Thanks for the interesting stories.

Hello Ivon. It is indeed a cool place to live, but you know what, the northern lights are rarely all that spectacular from up here. We are too far North for that. …seriously.
Ki Vault said:
Ok then so your Barrow is slightly more northier than mine but yours was named after one of our locals who liked it that much here he buggered off to where you are! I look forward to enjoying the comparisons between our two Barrows.
danielwalldammit said:
Heh, so THAT’S the other “barrow” I keep hearing about. Glad you came by. 🙂
Ki Vault said:
When I wrote the first Barrow and Beyond blog everyone must have thought it was about your Barrow, I got 800 visits in a day! What a disappointment it must have been for them all It’s never happened since.

Lol, I get visits all the time thinking I’m at your Barrow. Maybe we just need to send our respective readers each other’s direction.
Ki Vault said:
reblogs it is then
danielwalldammit said:
how about guest Blogs? You tell about my readers about your Barrow and I’ll tell yours about mine. I have a post planned for the next couple days, but maybe over the weekend?

Hi Dan,
I’m a little farther north myself, in the Seattle area.Thank You for liking my post, I appreciate it. I saw your post on the majority and think it quite good. Let’s face it, there is comfort and security in being part of the majority; it is harder to go against consensus when you know that you know what is true for you. It takes courage to do it and to be able to stand firm when the majority give you grief for it.

Norbert Haupt said:
Dan – how do you make your blog show the “Share This” and “Like This” buttons appear in the default post. On my posts, they open up only when I click on the comments link or the title. I have tried all the various settings. I even tested the Chateau theme you’re using. Did you actually customize the theme for this feature?
Your blog is the only one I have seen that does this for default, hence I asked.
danielwalldammit said:
You know, I’m actually not sure what I did. I remember I tried dozens of different things including threats and profanity before they appeared, and I honestly don’t remember what finally worked. I’ll look around and see if I can figure out how it’s working.
Norbert Haupt said:
Ah, so I am not the only one that finds this frustrating…
Thanks for checking.

Hi Dan, Thanks for checking out my site. Thought I’d stop by to see who might be interested in what I have to say and here you are. i have enjoyed every post I have read of your so far! Looking forward to hearing may more of your random thoughts 🙂

Hey Dan thanks for liking my panorama pics. It’s nice to have my Alaska pictures liked by an Alaskan. Makes me feel legitimate.
Btw, I love that you have a category about movie villains! I had a webpage once dedicated to the same thing, ha. I’m a christian, so I don’t know about Jesus being a villain, but I sure agree that he can be terrifying, and said and did a lot of shocking things.
Keep up the good work; I’m looking forward to browsing more (even though we often don’t see eye to eye) Though it’s thanks to people like you that I spend way too much time on the internet, dammit. 🙂

Hey there!
I lived in Anchorage, AK when I was like 10 and was there for 4 years ( my dad was military). I have intended to get back up there, but you know how that goes – the “maybe one of these days” syndrome. Looking forward to reading more about your adventures in the cold but beautiful state of Alaska!

Thank you for the like on The Kraken’s Wake.
I also did some work with the Navajo people, although it was only for a summer. We were in Klagetoh, AZ. I was amazed by the people there. When I asked the children, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” they did not understand the question. Their desire to “be” anything has been stolen from them over the years. Sad to see. Anyway, I enjoyed your site so far.

Hi Dan – Thanks for visiting me at http://ja2da.com.
Alaska has always been on my list of places to visit as soon as . . .
Nice pictures! Oh and I loved the end of term report (Thoughts on the Cherokee something was it?) I’d hadn’t thought of it all that way until now.
David
PS Interesting that it was the establishment (recognition?) of a police force that solved the Navaho raiding problem. So, now we have a collective to blame – “The police should do something about . . . “, or “I will call the police . . .”
Here in the UK we have just had a few instances of Eastern European individuals taking the law into their own hands – in a most civilised way – the owner of a business recently caught one of his employees with his hand in the till and promptly hung a sign round his neck “I am a thief” he then frog marched him through the town centre to the police station. Here the thief was released and the business owner was arrested for kidnap. It caused a few raised eyebrows but only a little sympathy. It seems we aren’t too keen on one on one justice either!

You must like cats? I have done projectile vomiting, but it was due to horrid food poisoning & was so horrid that I had no thoughts @ all about being filmed for another Exorcist tryst. I am very pleased that my Scary Cat Head got any attention. And I am bad about the two letter state abbreviation, thinking “There are beaches in Arkansas?” Ooops–is there such a thing as a Barrow Alaska refrigerator magnet ? -I have one from Riverton, Kansas. Paris, France, Paris, Texas–I just like to collect them!

Thanks for stopping by my blog and liking some of my pictures. I love AK too, I used to go up there on the tankers into Valdez. Did some fishing on a catcher/processer out of Dutch. I voted for it in the Free State Project but NH won 😦

Thank you for the charm and wit you’ve been feeding my screen for the last few hours, oh Cat Lady of the far, far, far North!
I love your Vegas street art segments. You’ll have to check out the cultural contributions of the Boulder City walls on your next visit. Oh, and you may have to make some time to venture out to Pahrump/Amargosa too! No erotic museum adventure is complete without the rare finds available in Nye County… and while you won’t find a review for it on my site, I highly recommend lunch at Sheri’s. It’s not everyday you can have a family dining experience in a brothel, amidst the merchants no less – free tours included!

fojap said:
I was looking to talk to someone and I know you have an interest in both Native American issues and movies. I heard some news today that a movie that came out earlier this month that used a slur that is associated with a native community in northern New Jersey and portrayed them (by Woody Harrelson!) as violent hillbillies living among garbage.
Anyway, I know some of these people and apparently they’re pretty upset by it. The kids are now getting harassed at school because of the movie – or so one of the teachers at the school told my mother.
Whether or not they should be considered an Indian tribe or not is a contentious issue. In any case, they’re a racially mixed community that has been living in the area for about three hundred years. It amazes me that unless people have been taught to be sensitive about racism directed at a particular group of people they seem to be unable to apply general principles. As I mentioned, I have some mild familiarity with the community and they have suffered from prejudice quite enough in their history. That the director/writer would do this is shocking to me. For the time being, I’m assuming the actors didn’t know that the script was referencing a real group of people.
Unfortunately, I haven’t seen the movie. I kind of hate calling a movie racist if I haven’t seen it.
danielwalldammit said:
It’s always a tough question as to whether or not a given character speaks for the movie as a whole. Maybe the point was to portray the character as racist, and maybe it was to actually express a negative view, or both. …hard to say without seeing the movie. But of course sometimes the harm is done regardless of the intent behind the story. It’s a damned shame to hear of kids getting flack for something like this. Do you know if there is any chance to counteract the movie’s message in the community?
Floyd Davidson said:

Met the neighbor of my rental house in Temecula accidentally today, when I was there to fix a leak at my tenants. Turns out she is from Alaska, only comes here for a month or two every year. Where in Alaska, I asked. Barrow, the top of the world, she said. Wow, I know a guy named Dan (didn’t remember your last name). She didn’t know you. Works for the government there. Got a kick out of it though. Barrow’s population is listed at 4,200. What are the odds?

Thanks for visiting Adventures in Cat Fostering and liking O.M.G. She’s brand new, adorable and probably won’t be here long. Little ones like her get adopted really quickly. I suspect I’ll be stopping by Northierthanthou. Fascinated with the north; must be my Canadian blood. 😉

Thanks for your comment on my “Don’t Tread on Me?” artwork over at libertopiacartoon.wordpress.com. In addition to creating cartoons and infographics, I enjoy role-playing games too (like Star Wars, Battletech, Shadowrun). Liked the picture on your blog of you in your big-hair days!

Do you know Dan Wall, I have two dreams, one is Himalayas and the other one is Alaska.. and there is no chance to make them true… So I am crazy with blogs, like yours… from Alaska… Thank you for sharing with us, and Thank you for visiting my blog. I am so glad to know you and to your blog. At my desk seems that I will make amazing voyage through your posts… Blessing and Happiness, Love, nia

No chance? I can only hope that you are wrong about that. In any event, I am happy to read that you enjoy my blog. Your words are very kind.
Himalayas though? That sounds way too cold!

Hi.
You visited my blog and I couldn’t help but take a look at yours. I would like to compliment you on your writing as I found myself unable to stop reading and moved from one post to the next without hesitation (this hasn’t been helpful in getting my work done but, who wants to work anyway). I find myself agreeing with a lot of what you say which is said in a very good and clever way. Thank you, I shall look forward to reading more of your posts.
Maggie C said:
Your blog is the most thought provoking, laugh producing thing I’ve read in a very long time. Thanks for following mine. It’s for the occasional cat photos I post, isn’t it? Or maybe you’re a closet dog lover. Either way, thanks. I look forward to reading more of your northerly thoughts.

you have amassed a gathering of simpaticos. i am now among them
one would be hard pressed to be northier than thee.

Projectile vomiting?
Okaaaaay … I was young, cold, alone in San Francisco at night on my way back to the ship with an armful of new books. Stopped at a bar for a drink. The barman was Japanese and I remembered that sake is served hot. Ish. I also knew some of the words and ritual, the barman was impressed and bought me the next one.
I reciprocated, after which so did he; and so did I etc etc … somewhere in the evening was a bowl of clam chowder, I think. Anyway—
I awoke next morning to a redecorated world. Clam chunder is every bit as good as a spray-paint bomb, I tell you. If there were an Olympic Projectile Vomiting event I’d have taken gold and set an unbeatable world record … (and I still had my books, but no idea how I ever made it back to the ship).

It’s true. You woke up and found yourself in Uncle Bardie Country. Now that you have followed Uncle Bardie, you may find yourself at that fork in the road that you have to take. With Uncle Bardie for a guide, you can be comforted that you may stub your toe on a pun, find you can’t resist laughing at those things you never thought funny, and wake up to wonder what Uncle Bardie is up to. It’s okay. That itch can be scratched. Simply tune in to the next Post, It could very well be a doozy or not. Either way it will be coming from the whacky mind of Uncle Bardie. So thanks for following Uncle Bardie’s Stories & Such. It beats bananas any day. Unless…but that’s a whole ‘nother thang. And one last thing. Have a great day (or night, depending on your perspective).

You’re very talented. Your writing is raw and real. I wish I had the time required to read your last post in its entirety for example… That’s to say I wish your posts were a bit shorter so that your visitors can decide to read them then and there, and not bookmark it for another time.. which we all know hardly ever does end well 🙂 Thank you for following me. Glad we connected 🙂

Half awake, late morning today, I did as requested and clicked one click at a time and yes you are northier then me and due more westernier. Similar perhaps, I get head butted by full grown cats that think they are kittens. Yet, I have no idea what pushed puppies means, pray Sir, would thou please enlighten this ol’ Brit. I also blog about whatever the hell I feel like, but I always my aim in life is kindness, unless I am pissed off, but then I’m not sure I would blog those moments and they are rare. So, “Morning Mr Thou” {{{giggle}}} or informally “Watcha Northier”
danielwalldammit said:
Good morning Bexy. When I say that I pushed puppies for a living, I mean that I was PR for an animal shelter. One of my jobs was trying to get strays adopted.
I hope you are off to a wonderful day. I shall be sleeping soon myself.

“Northiness” is fucking hysterical and I’m jealous as hell. Pacific Northiwesterness just doesn’t have the same ring.
You only get points for the projectile vomiting if the target was particularly deserving and well hit.
You’re the only one I’ve encountered thus far who has legal rights to a beard, because Barrow. The rest are hipsters wearing testosterone scarves, a seasonal accessory unsubstantiated by fortitude and/or callouses. I’m bitter.

Sitting at my little cabin at 7,000 feet in Ruidoso, NM, less than 10 miles from Dahteste’s grave. Somehow I discovered your website and read your very interesting review of the movie. Now I will have to watch it.
In 2015 we have a mare give birth to an interesing looking filly at our ranch in Texas.
The filly has very unusual white markings on her head and has one black eye and one blue eye. The blue eye is very spooky.
Since we come to New Mexico quite often (over place in just 5 mintues from the Mescalero reservation I started looking for the Apache words for medicine woman
and that is how I learned about Dahteste.
That is what we named our filly who now at age three has becom a pretty good
race horse. She has been running in Idaho and now is being shipped to California for a big race.
She is a gorgeous filly from a great pedigree and we hope she makes quite a bit
more money and lives a long life as a broodmare.
I have a connection with the Apaches that says he can get permission for someone to take her to Dahteste’s grave. That will be a good day.
Thanks for listenng. And I will read some more of your postes. And I must know 10 guys named Dan Wall. All from Texas and Oklahoma.

If you wish to come unto my blog and take me on make certain you have your facts straight. I have already examined both sides of the issues i write about and do not tolerate being LIED to.
danielwalldammit said:
You have done no such thing. It is you that has lied about the events of January 6th.
David M. Green said:
Daniel I’ve spent the last year paying attention and carefully observing both the left and the right especially their tactcs. Propaganda, Misinformation, Fake News, Cancel Cuture and Out Right Lies and Intellectual Dishonesty are all coming from the Left and Useful Idiots like yourself who simply repeat the lies your told. Indeed the Bible describes individuals like yourself who have inching ears and only listen to those who tell them what they want to hear.
danielwalldammit said:
Propaganda and misinformation is what you demand. Your own judgement rests on nothing but rumors and conspiracy narratives, and you have already lied about the current issue. You are not who you pretend to be and your politics is little more than self-deception,
David M. Green said:
You can lie to yourself all you want – i for one refuse to buy your bull shit.
danielwalldammit said:
Your the one who said trump didn’t sanction the event of the 6th. You know damned well that was a lie.
David M. Green said:
Trump called for a protest and a show of support. He did not call for, sanction nor defended the attack on the capitol building.
David M. Green said:
Neo-Socialist Sympathizers Polesi and Schumer on the other hand are using the incident to lay the foundations for a Neo-Socialist Totalitarian Government; that will seek to disenfranchise those who dare to oppose the new Socialist Order.
danielwalldammit said:
This rant does nothing to change the significance of the lie you have already told. Get some integrity!
David M. Green said:
Sadly Daniel you have neither integrity nor credibility. Take care living in your la la land bubble as reality tends to burst them – rather harshly.
danielwalldammit said:
You are the one caught out in a blatant lie. Your childish narratives do not change this. Goodbye fake patriot!
