Hard to say what was known by whom. Many
tribes and communities had someone who had
traveled and was gifted with languages and
might have served as an interpreter with other
tribes including the white folks. I don't know
As I understand, there was a relatively common sign language used by the various tribes. Some tribes may have had a member who knew other
languages but if I recall what I read years ago correctly, this sign
language was the primary form of inter-tribal communication.
I know that was true among the eastern peoples.
Didn't know that about the west.
of any contemporary accounts of what their
command of other languages actually was.
We could research it out, but is it worth the time/effort?
If you focus on the thorns, ... .
of real class differences. I wonder if all the
episodes were directed by the same person, and
Probably a good number of them for the series shows.
Some of them, but if you look at the
records, a lot of episodes had directors
hired just for that one or a limited run.
Probably didn't pay enough to make a decent living on.
Not sure. You see people on IMDb with scanty
credits who seem to have made a name for
themselves. Did they spend the rest of their
time parking cars and pumping gas?
if not, why wasn't there a handbook of Indians.
There were, but not real Indians for the most part.
How?
White men ruled--and played almost every part.
That was sort of a joke. If it weren't, I'd have
said "why."
Simpler times when those shows were made.
And they weren't concerned with what viewers
50 or 60 years later would be concerned with.
They probably didn't think copies of the shows would still be around 50
or 60 years later.
on what I thought was the Wikipedia article
and was highjacked to a site that, well, let's
just say that I had to run a virus scan.
OOPS! Hope your system is well de-bugged now.
The headline on the Google listing was List of
Natural Redheads - Wikipedia, so I could have
been forgiven for clicking on it.
Understandable.
Irritating, though.
he talks in stereotypical buck-toothed Jap talk,
and I don't. Not to mention, Hiro Sone is a
genius, or as close to as makes no difference.
And you make no claims to be so?
I am pretty gifted in a bunch of fields; no
breakthrough genius, though, that I can
discern. I have had friends in that category,
and their accomplishments make other folks'
seem like small potatoes.
If you're not into that kind of thing.
Not really.
You might vary your routine now and then.
Some things are just not our "cuppa tea", especially if it's downgrading people.
Depends. I give people a pass if they are
showing their own frailties as well as
pointing out others'. And there are those who
deserve to be ridiculed, but they are
relatively few and far between.
Even I go to church once in a while. Or the
opera, which is worse.
Steve's not an opera fan either. I think I would enjoy some, more for
the story/acting than the music.
There was a big discussion about that, between
Hoffmansthal and Richard Strauss. The standard
formulation is, which is to be first, the words
or the music. Strauss's answer, which I agree
with, was "Primo la musica, dopo le parole" -
i.e., the music first, then the words.
Considering that the recommended feeding
regimen is once every week or two, and you
can neglect them for SIX MONTHS before they
get endangered, it would seem that in some
ways snakes might be the ideal emotional
support animal for a long journey. Oh, other
than they likely won't provide much support.
No, and other passengers might need support animals after seeing a
snake. (G)
There is that.
Yes, you do miss a lot of chances to expand your culinary horizons
that > way. (G)
I had a friend who ate nothing but ground
beef, white rice, and boiled green beans.
Every night. For years.
Bor-ring!
He was the executor of the Warhol estate, so
there were probably other interesting things
in his life.
A lifetime, if taken all at once!
For sure!
To paraphrase a pizza chain ad:
"Seizure. Seizure."
Basically so.
