3 sitka soup November 4-17, 2010/3 Our Town Nov. 4, 2010 The knock on the Soupster s door turned out to be Bob, the Soupster s new neighbor, who wanted to borrow a flashlight. Bob needed to do some outdoor plumbing and, new to Our Town, he still felt uncomfortable about running electrical cords outside in the rain. Cleve, the Soupster told Bob. Cleve is your man. Cleve was another of the Soupster s neighbors and known for his lights. Cleve had gasoline-powered pedestal klieg lights as well as key chain lights whose bulbs were guaranteed beyond eternity. Cleve had lights he could strap to his head, his shoulder, the crook of his arm and his shoes. He had old diving lights that ran on massive lantern batteries, a flashlight that ran on a fuel cell the size of a dime and one you could crank to operate. The passage between the Soupster s house and Cleve s ran through some thick brush, and the Soupster could see Bob cringing from the even deeper dark that cloaked the path. Light, said the Soupster. Can you even remember the middle of the summer, when it never got dark? We re paying for that now. The light-starved Bob took up the conversation after all isn t food -- or the lack of it --- a favorite subject of famished people? The desert is dark, notably dark, he said. A winter I spent outside Shiprock, Arizona taught me that. But wet dark is somehow worse. Wet dark is like double dark, the Soupster agreed, Market Center Sea Mart True Value Lakeside Grocery Kenny s Roma GCI Little Tokyo Harry Race Pharmacy Sitka Realty Re-Max of Sitka Super 8 Motel Back Door Subway * ACS Davis Realty Westmark Sitka Ferry Terminal Murray Pacifi c Plus My Size Stereo North City Utilities Offi ce Pioneer Home Center for Community Cascade Convenience (both locations) Sitka Airpt. (Originally published Nov 17, 2005) On a tour of Alcatraz prison, I volunteered to be locked in solitary confinement, said Bob. When they closed the door, that was the darkest I could imagine. Cleve s yard is equipped with motion-sensor lights all over the place, said the Soupster. Don t be startled. I can show you where you can just wave your hand a little out in front of you and set off the whole array. On the edge of Cleve s lawn, the Soupster waved his arm a little out in front of him and the whole area blazed into daytime. Awash now, the two men staggered blinking up the walk. Cleve was already at his front door, tipped off by the lights. Can Bob check out one of your flashlights to do some plumbing? the Soupster asked, indicating the new neighbor. Sure, said Cleve, who disappeared briefly. He came back with a three lights -- a carabiner micro-light, a waterproof millioncandlepower portable searchlight and about six feet of luminescent piping. Use the piping for brightening up the area where you are working, he explained. As Bob stood examining the lights, the Soupster turned to Cleve. Poor guy, whispered the Soupster. This is his first November. He ll do okay, Cleve said. It ll soon be Thanksgiving and the city lights will go up on the utility poles and the people in the stores and houses will start decorating. Can I borrow all three lights? asked Bob. Better than cursing the darkness, said Cleve. For sure. Bayview Trading Co. Alaska Computer Ctr. UAS SEARHC Sitka Comm.

They were purple, red, white, and yellow, but never orange In the 16th century, Dutch carrot growers invented the orange carrot in honor of the House of Orange, the Dutch Royal Family. They did this by cross breeding pale yellow carrots with red carrots. The settlers at Jamestown in 1607 introduced carrots to North America Carrots ranked as the seventh most valuable crop produced in the United States in 2004 The longest carrot ever recorded was nearly 19 feet long.
