Cultural point of view:

            I met an Indian artisan, of the Shoshone Nation, and we talked for a good long time about all kinds of stuff. The Shoshone share a reservation with the Cheyenne, and there is a bit of friction between them. The Cheyenne claimed that the Shoshone bloodlines were too diluted to be real Indians. The Shoshone say that the Cheyenne aren’t diluted is because Cheyenne women are so ugly that even a white man wouldn’t have one. I took it as a dis to Cheyenne women and about the white man’s taste in women. I later saw some of his work in a gallery and with that kind of skill and talent; he can dis whomever he wants.

A Little Common Sense:

In an earlier post I gave New Orleans hell for being built where it shouldn’t be, but we humans have been trying to put ourselves into places where God and nature say “Thou shouldn’t go.” I truly feel for the people who have been flooded throughout the Midwest in recent years. But as with New Orleans it comes down to a 3 words that tell the whole story….”Below Sea Level!” In the case of the major rivers overrunning their banks and brushing aside levees those words are “Flood Plain”. Now just what part of flood plain makes the least amount of sense to those people? Mother Nature has used that land as overflow for millions of years, and she’ll still use it whenever she damned well feels like it.

That naturally brings us to earthquakes. This is directed to my much-loved sister in California; do the 2 simple words “Fault Line” mean anything to you?
