Blues it's good to see that you're using the correct name (Shaman) for the non-ndns Medicine People.
Not many people know the difference between a Shaman and a Medicine Man or Medicine Woman.
The word Shaman applies only to non-ndn Medicine People.
The words Medicine Man or Medicine Woman are the correct terms for an Indin Medicine Person.
And if any Indin ever comes up to you and claims to be a Shaman you need to lsten very carefully and make sure they're not saying _Shame-Man_.
The ndn world is full of them and you can easily tell them from real Medicine People because it won't be long and they will try to charge you for performing ceremonies.
You also want to run like Hell the opposite way!!!!!!!
And I know that "stuff" as well!!!!!!
I prefer the "Mountain Dew" which goes down nice and smooth and won't eat the bottom out of a tin cup.
But LOOK OUT when you go to stand up because you won't be able to feel your feet.
And if you sit back down and decide to have "just" another "little jigger full" you won't be able to feel your A$$ let alone find it with both hands.
Oh!!!!!
And Blues one of dem boyz may be kinfolk, slightly remooved, ta oneah my son-in-laws. Da name soun(d)s very familiar.
In all seriousness though where is Ray?
I have been wondering about him myself, but just figured he was busy like some of us get from time to time.
I miss Ray as well. Ray brought a lot of good to the Cantina.
