    All I can think of every time I hear the 'promo' for this contest is the Indian commedian & fimmaker, Charlie Hill's old routine based on the concept "give them a rock & they take the whole continent" - It's unfortunately more true than ever, with the false new stereotype that all Indians are now rich from casinos, when in fact poverty & it's attendant suffering & the assault upon their small land-base by multi-nat'l corps are accelerating. And of course they continue to give-up their young men (& women)to the military disproportionally.

    I fast & give thanks for knowing the unvarnished truth.

    Virginia school children are petitioning the President to pardon a pig this year in addition to a turkey in honor of the 400th anniversary of Jamestown Virginia. The contention is that the first Thanksgiving was held in 1619, a year before the Pilgrims landed, and that they ate Virginia ham, not turkey. Google "Pardon the Pig" to learn more.

    Kinda rough listening to you describe a picture and parse out why it's funny...
