Some of Obama’s Hollywood advisors are running around for a copy of North to Alaska but will end up with Abbot and Costello’s Lost in Alaska. Another is interviewing the production team from Northern Exposure. The arts graduate learns from The Edge that they are all crazy up there and finally some old guy assures them he remembers Jimmy Stewart in the Far Country and all that goes into Alaska is bacon and whiskey and all that comes out of Alaska is gold and dance hall floozies.
