		I was told that despite the miserable winter in Anchorage, Majestic had good skiing and that the Oosik race was one race on the local schedule that would probably not be cancelled.
		The philosophy behind the Oosik is very similar to big ski marathons in Scandinavia, where crowds of people camp out on the side of the trail and drink beer and build bonfires while the racers go by.
		The only difference with the Oosik is that the racers themselves camp by the trail and drink beer around the bonfire, after the race is over.

		Never mind that I knew I paid the highest price for an oosik in all of Alaska, and never mind that, even at that price, the oosik was on sale.
		What really slays me is only three people know what an oosik is: The shop owner who sold me the bone; me, who has researched laws pertaining to products made from endangered species; and the customs agent who wants to take away the walrus bone; more specifically, the walrus' penis bone.
		They say maybe Canadian officials would not have taken the oosik if I had had a note from the Native American who sold it to me. Problem is, the couple who owns the shop and sold me the oosik weren't Native Americans.

		This leaves oddities who are initially hard to fit in to the naming rules of Viron, people called -- for example -- Trematode, Scleroderma, Simuliid and Oosik.
