Breakfast is important. Eat some cold pizza, a banana or even some corned beef and cabbage. Or something more traditional.

No sense picking too firm a direction in life, as you look back you will see that forces greater than you have shaped the path and it looks little like the ones you chose.

About Me
- Mike
- I am sytems analyst at this point in my life, but I have been a farmer, cowboy, soldier, author and more in this wonderful meander through life.
Shooting my Browning on a pretty day.
I know, bad stance, but I rarely miss.
The Big Lake
You know there is God when you look over Lake Michigan and see this beauty.
Don't forget the past...
When NASA was preparing for the Apollo Project, it took the astronauts to a Navajo reservation in Arizona for training.
One day, a Navajo elder and his son came across the space crew walking among the rocks.
The elder, who spoke only Navajo, asked a question. His son translated for the NASA people: "What are these guys in the big suits doing?" One of the astronauts said that they were practicing for a trip to the moon. When his son relayed this comment the Navajo elder got all excited and asked if it would be possible to give to the astronauts a message to deliver to the moon.
Recognizing a promotional opportunity when he saw one, a NASA official accompanying the astronauts said, "Why certainly!" and told an underling to get a tape recorder. The Navajo elder's comments into the microphone were brief.
The NASA official asked the son if he would translate what his father had said. The son listened to the recording and laughed uproariously. But he refused to translate. So the NASA people took the tape to a nearby Navajo village and played it for other members of the tribe. They too laughed long and loudly, but also refused to translate the elder's message to the moon. An official government translator was summoned.
After he finally stopped laughing, the translator relayed the message: "WATCH OUT FOR THESE ASSHOLES -- THEY HAVE COME TO STEAL YOUR LAND."
