Sneaky  you must have taken me out of context I am really a nice guy honest. The sad thing is you call yourself a lady Reply...
Oh I dare alright and I will post what I want , when I want. You should leave this post and all as far as I am concerned but could care less what you do.
I call an apple an apple , you call it what you want, but the indundibulum is you are all about yourself, who happens to hate all of different color or opinions. You are nobody better than anyone who posts in here even though you may think so.

Kx: How dare you speak for the Lord? Why would I think for one second he would think like YOU? You are extremely offensive, and becoming more so everyday. Do you think you have the correct opinion "cornered" and yours is the only viable one worthy of being posted here? Get a life...............No wonder so many here have told you to "Shove off" (in different terms). You don't own this forum - maybe you should stop acting like you do. Heaven forbid that someone should disagree with you. Your attempts are humor lately are more pathetic ramblings of a sick mind. This forum isn't the place for your personal attempts to change the world, then rale against those who disagree with you.......................Start a blog somewhere else if you don't want other opinions. You had responded to my post once already - YESTERDAY - what's the deal? So pi$$ed that I didn't respond to you again, that you needed to personaly attack me? Get over yourself Kx - you are no great thinker - most of what you post is copy and paste - we can all do that. If I wanted to read a book I'll do it - mean while, your hogging up bandwidth with your ridiculously long copy and paste posts that any person with half a peanut brain can google search (if they wanted to). You have self appointed yourself king and high ruler of what is the correct opinion here on this board - sorry to let you know, you're neither. You are the one one is truly on your high horse - DAILY. Everyday you are attacking someone personally - Shoppe, Marilyn now me. Do you have a problem with the ladies? Sure seems like it to me. You must be a very bitter and lonely person. Sad. Reply...
Sneaky says → if the Anglos hadn't colonized America, then another group of people would have. Also, it's common in recent years to paint Native Americans as peace loving earth lovers who never harmed a fly...................take a true look back in a history book that hasn't been altered,
Yes you should take that true look Sneaky. If you think the autrocities of indians taking scalps, cutting heads off, along with limbs , the white man was placing his foe's heads on sticks in the town square. Take you head out of your wide lilly white ass and come down to where real people are in the pink and actually think.
Any other color of person would have come here without making our WHITE CHRISTIAN GOD STINK! He will make you white supremists think a different color for a fawking change!
You will to be surprised to see your real lords colors.
Yes Custer made some mistakes in his life, he got killed and proves it so get off your white horse it looks stupid under you.  Reply...

Hey everyone. I just finally was able to get the internet hooked up. Soooo, you are my first communication on the net. Like you said Theresa, I am in Az. We arrived here last Monday a week ago. Or was it Tuesday? I am not remembering so good. We had a long trip. It took us a week to get here from Minneapolis. It was a long way. In fact almost 2400 miles to our house. WE could not go very far each day cause it is so hard for hubby to sit. We only made it 200 miles one day cause he was going crazy. That place did not have internet so was really boring. It just happened to be on the fritz that day or I would have been in touch.
We had a lovely Thanksgiving at my Aunts house. She lives about 2 miles from us down here. Then on Friday of last week, we took off from here and went to Rocky point down in Mexico. It is a small resort shrimping town. It has wonderful beaches and a wonderful string of huge condo hotels. It is lovely and close for us. About a 5 hr drive. We just road along with another fella and didn't have to worry about the drive. It is on the inside of the baha. A/nother name for it is Porta Penasco. Not sure of the spelling but it is something like that. Anyway, I ate enough shrimp fixed anyway you can imagine. I am sure we all added 5 pounds.
Tomorrow I have to get busy and get our house in order to leave and do the laundry. We leave here and fly home to Minot. Actually we fly into Bismarck and will have to drive from there. I hate to leave now but that is our plan. '
We recieved some very sad news today. Our dear neice who has been wanting a baby for a long time just had a miscarriage today. I am devastated for her. She has a little boy who is 8 and has lost 3 babies now. They have tried about everything for her. Pray for her and her hubby. I am so glad they did not tell the little boy. It is such a blow to them. They thought it would really work this time.
Well, I have lots of emails to answer so I will be in touch later. I missed you all and your posts. I don't have time to go back and read it all but will later.
Later ladies! Reply...

Hello everyone how are you today? I am still recovering from a long weekend. My friend Maureen that has been here for the past four days left this morning, now I will sleep. We had a good time, we did not go out very much, just hung out played the Nintendo Wii allot. I love the Wii, Wii sports resort is the best game. We did sword fights, bowling, more sword fight, tennis, I love that game.
So what is everyone asking Santa for? Me I want the new Waterpik toothbrush,
http://www.waterpik.com/oral-health-products/countertop-dental-water-jet/WP-100/
It costs about $140.00, it is the hot gift for this Christmas, and most places are sold out. It is new; it actually squirts water while you brush. You all know how much I love me; I have great teeth, thanks to your tax dollars and the United States Air Force. I have about eleven thousand dollars of porcelain veneers in my mouth. They are not dentures they are all permanent. I lost a few of my front teeth in a bar fight at Andrews Air Force base. Here comes a story, so if you don’t care skip to the next paragraph. I was a young two striper in the Air Force, but I was a Law Enforcement person, and I had a gun and a night stick, so I thought I was unstoppable. We were called to fight at the NCO club, now at Andrews there were Marines and Navy also assigned for the support of Marine One. Every now and then there would be a bar fight, I was with my best partner Ray he was a Sergeant. We had no idea how bad it was until we entered. So I entered where the bar fight was I screamed “Halt Security Police”, you guessed it, Bam out cold. Now I am not sure what really happened, but I was told the fight stopped and everyone was trying to find three missing teeth that knocked out. You can never tell now, all my teeth are porcelain. I love my teeth. Okay enough about me.
Care I hope your husband had a great birthday; I am a fan of ringtones. My regular ringtone is “I Gotta feeling”, by the Black Eyed Peas, I love the Black Eyed Peas. My have my husbands ringtone set to “Money”, by Pink Floyd.
KO I have the Soup Kitchen this week, please come by for lunch 1130-1230, but you came earlier. KO what is favorite type of soup, I will make it. Don’t make it an easy soup; I like to make a soup that is better that any restaurant in Minot, just name it. I am also making fresh banana cake, with banana frosting. It takes 11 bananas; it is in a half sheet cake.
Curly, I know you are in Arizona, but please tell us how it is going.
Shoppe did you see this story, Pirates too over an American oil ship. It could be a mess.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/01/world/africa/01pirates.html?_r=1&hp
Well I have to bring my friends shopping, it is Monday.
Shoppe for you,

Yo! Is this a pimp or what?
I still think that last guy was a girl, he has panty lines.
I love you all Theresa

ShoppeGirl: I love the Reservation lyfe...I grew up there..Its really a beautiful chunk of land..lots to see. hidden beautys.. wild ponies.cougars.deers..ME. My ppl. reletives..ya all them. IF the white and I say WHITE becos the govt..is and was made up fullo white guys ...terms,conditions,indians put in asylums"Canton sodak." why? becos the elders and young children didnt Understand english! nor did they WANT to conform to wearing cheap perfumes or become a trading post indian.. but it happened.so I say OUR reservations stay..IT as the rest,are our safe lands.. where you white folks and blacks can only come in here and try to mix with sum of our easy girls.. but thats it.theres no more mom or dad respect here.. moms use their kids to commit crimes and sell drugs.AS I see here!!!!!! in fort yates...cball. solen ,... theyre closest to mandan.. so its easier to come in..No! reservations stay... I couldnt bear to watch my peoples ALL nations of FEDERALLY recogs be used and filtered into this ghetto socald Ahmeerikan lyfe... too many teens having babies.. if our ppl do end up out here by FORCE becos YOU white folks wanna be feelin baad about us being like in a human dawg pownd.. well Id rather have that than have most of my relatives be ending up half aayrabz or Iranians..get it??? I have to get to schooll laters!!!! Reply...
Sneaky, I do not think this is a bias story on Custer or the Indians. I posted because of my intrest in what they went through that day. I had two windows open on different sites, I wanted to post the story of just the indians side of the story. Which also gives better understanding. In doing this I now have a cleared picture of what it was like back then.
We both (Indian and Whites) did some horrific things to other men. It is not my portrail but the portrail of what history writes. Sorry but I could not find the story other than the same old same old, which I had difficulty in understanding that many indians were allied with us in the venture against the Sioux.
I did not find this story bias one way or the other. It stated facts that I did not know, like the 3 custer brothers dieing on the battle field. The heart missing of Tom Custer and the story behind him and Rain-in-the-Face was something new to me. I did not know Custer was not scalped.
The reason I like this is it give you a better understanding. This was not written by indians follow the site i posted at the end you may learn more. It is not against the whites, it is not against the Sioux, or any other. It is facts and after 130 years , we still do not understand fully what it was like to live back then in the dakotas or the west.
Its History, post the story your way if you would like. I think all views are interesting. I found the site a great great great niece of Red Cloud tells of the story in adio. It is very interesting.
I did not post this for sides but rather entertainment. I plan on visiting the Big Horn this summer again. I was small the first time, and maybe now I will go and understand more.
THis is the entertainment section, not meant for sides just entertainment of those who read and find this topic interesting.

I'll do that Si. He had a boring Bday. But it was still nice. I am now at work....super boring. I should be glad that it so quiet. I love quiet...at home!! When it is slow like this I think about all the things I could be doing around the house. Laundry....pick up the magazines that have accumulated. We all get more than one a month...I throw out my old issue when the new arrives...Rol and Johnboy both will hang onto all their issues for months and months. They don't know it but when they aren't around I will toss whatever ones I come across. Hahaha!!! Cabela's...OMG, a new catalog every other day comes in. One for ammo, fishing, hunting, womens, kids, xmas, spring, fall, Geesh, there might as well be one for full moon, rain, pets, and friends too. So many catalogs and mags come in that when I am the one checking the mail I won't even bring in some of them...in the trash they go. They don't even make into the house. Well of the Victoria Secrets catalog does...they have great shoes. Have a great day. Love, care29 xoxoxox Shoppe how was your Saturday Holiday? T and Si, you two are getting together again? I wish I could join you. You should log onto facebook and see if I am on...then we could chat in real time...the three of us over coffee...hahahaha!!! Reply...
I agree with Sneaky, someone would have taken over.
I love the pics KXvuhur.

Tell Rol happy birthday! I will be out Thursday Friday Sat Sun n Monday..Thursday i am taking off for my birthday since Friday n monday will be my regular days off . I love my job! I guess yesterday the heater blew out here at work so it smells like smoke bad!!! Maybe it will clear up a little bit. Thursday we went to my dads side of the family's dinner. It was nice other then the fact that rugrat pulled the fire alarm... (Why dont they have covers on them??) No one responded to the alarm though!!! Other then that it was a nice quiet weekend.
The kids are at school today. They were pretty excited. I called my daughter n she said Ohio is great! I am making new friends n Everything!!! My ex husbands friends all have kids their ages..crazy we all had kids about 2 mos apart!! n 5 years later!!!
Theresa, I will be up on Thursday but I have to leave by 4pm. Husband works 4-midnite so I have to pick up rugrat by 6. I gotta email mom right now n ask her if she would keep rugrat. He wants to take me to Red Lobster on Wednesday for my bday. Reply...
All I can post in reply is this: Custer was doing the job he was paid to do - period. And, as someone has posted on this board before (can't remember which one of our brilliant forum members it was tho - my apologies), if the Anglos hadn't colonized America, then another group of people would have. Also, it's common in recent years to paint Native Americans as peace loving earth lovers who never harmed a fly...................take a true look back in a history book that hasn't been altered, not all tribes were peaceful and generous - a lot of them were - and a lot of then were not. Let's post the whole story - not just the half YOU would have people hear. Reply...
