They are funny!! Sorry about losing your dog. I had to have one put down on Good Friday and I cry when I look at his picture. My new mutt is here because I am her 4th home. I was her last chance. She is goofy looking but sweet,smart,and tries so hard. She likes everyone and all animals. She just wants to BE.

It is just more work for you know who! I think I would survive but really have doubts about some of my friends.. I then began to wonder about innate knowledge and gained knowledge or if it was innate to begin with and lost because it was not used. I have female friends who cannot read a map. They do not know which way is up. They cannot tell direction when standing in the sun. They get lost going around the block. I do not get lost in the woods or civilization. I have to look at the sun to tell if I'm facing north or whatever but can find an alternate route and know if I am going in the correct direction without looking at a map. I can start a fire from one match. I know common sense is relative because what I know from living in TX does not automatically fit with living in Michigan. There are many other variables to consider. When Oprah was in TX during her law suit she wanted to know why women in TX carry such big purses with so much crap in them. No body gave this answer but you might say you were going to visit a friend who lives just over there and it is 200 miles round trip. A friend of mine drives 89miles one way to work. Distance on maps doesn't not compare state to state. Driving an inch on a TX map is 250 miles where driving an inch on MO maps is closer to 30 miles. I think women in TX pack for "whatever" because you might be gone all day. After saying this, what I do not understand is why Texans never wear a coat even when the wind chill is ten below zero. They do not carry stuff for emergencies in the car. I probably carry way too much crap but you never know. I guess that is because my dad was in the military for so long-we practiced war on a yearly basis. It carries over from living in Alaska and having to carry gas,weapons,etc. I know it is easier to rough it depending on the climate. I can camp with it on the cold side as opposed to the hot side. I have bathed in a half a quart of dish water but washing my hair was a cardiac experience. I must go sew!!!

Hi Sandi, We love the "fry bread" and the NA tacos. Bill and I get them every time we attend a powwow and then don't want to eat a big meal for dinner. Bill said if you have the "official recipe" he would love to have it. He makes "bread" all the time - from scratch - he only uses the bread machine to kneed it. We will be going to the Powwow in Hampton Roads in VA next Sunday. Thanks. Carolyn F. Subject: Re: [MAUPIN-CHAT] Fry bread > > I don't know what fry bread is.

I know I will get an answer to this. I have looked for "poke" in all my gardening and wild flower books. I looked it up in the dictionary. I cannot find the species or genus name,botanical name,etc. I can find how to cook it and know it grows wild. I know patients who still eat it. I would like to know what it is.

Yes, I loved it there. We lived on Oahu. The rock does get mighty small. Today it is much different than when we were there in the late sixties. I did not want to come back to the Mainland. I was so overwhelmed by space and seeing land forever. It was different getting used to the language-Pidgin English. It was different being a minority.

Indian Fry bread is not like French toast. It is made between the hands like tortillas-patting them back and forth until the dough is round and then toss it into really hot grease until they puff up. They are not sweet but can be eaten with honey. I like them with ground beef,lettuce,beans,cheese,corn,and tomatoes on them. I am not sure what the dough is except maybe Masa Harina.

Yes , I do think it was a female. She was loud enough to wake the dead. It was not just in one family of birds either. They really had a row. Then when the row was over the little cheepers were asking to be fed. Then there would be another "Shut up and go to sleep" before the hatchlings would settle!

The men said they would do it again and so did the kids. The women were not so sure. I cannot believe the fighting that went on except that I think all people would react differently than they think they would when placed in a totally foreign situation. I went on a four day remote hike with a male friend and my dog. We were all different. The dog was awake all night looking for anything to guard against. I kept waking up thinking the phone was ringing. Stephen and I were at each other's throats because there were no distractions and there were a lot of chores. Day three and four were much better. Did not want to come back to civilization except for a shower. Back in civilization our reaction time was way off. Driving in traffic was scary and we were just in Santa Fe. We really objected to any noise. Rushing hither,thither and yon was no longer important.

When you roll it up it is like turning it over or rolling it up into a "tube". When you fold it in half you take the tip and fold it back over the tongue. That is actually three genetic traits-turning it over,folding in half width wise,folding it into a tube or folding it length wise. Not much good for anything but each are genetic traits that are sometimes asked by the medical community looking into genetics.
