From a story about the lack of women in Alaska relative to the rest of the country:There was some evidence of pickiness among women on an online dating Web site, Plentyoffish.com, where an Anchorage woman recently posted a message headlined "Bye Bye Losers."
"I am a female who knows what she wants and will stop at nothing to get what I want," the woman wrote. "That means what I want I get and I will not take no for an answer." (New York Times)***For all the New York Times knows, "Bye Bye Losers" was posted by a teenage boy from Omaha. ***

Canadian line about the territory to the east of Alaska dealing with the male-female ratios and their imbalance:
"The odds are good, but the goods are odd."
