What else has been goin' on
« on: December 19 2005, 06:17:39 PM »
I hadn't mentioned this yet, but about a month ago a good
friend of mine had passed away. I had known him for over 30 years.
He had a decorated military service, having been in the army in Korea,
and later was a Navy seal in Viet Nam. Amongst other things, he was
into  Native American Indian religion. Last night the executor of his estate, had
me go to my friends house. While I was there the executor had given
me his Mandella (spelling ?) She told me that they're only to be given to people,
and never bought/sold. Also, that it should be hung near either the doorway
to your home or bedroom for good luck. I'll post a pic later. Its really
cool. It kind of looks like a dream catcher, but it has a painting of a horseback
indian that appears to be hunting buffalo in the middle of it. Can any of you guys
tell me more about it ? I'm guessing that Natty will have the lowdown on it.

Do you know which tribe it originates from? There's a LOT of difference in tradition/custom between, say, Micmac (up your way) and, say, Navajo (around here) just to mention a couple.


Sorry to hear about your friend.....I'll be respectful and not fill you full of brightside bullshit.

I can't tell you bud, but I can do some research.
My 1958 Mamiya can beat up whatever camera you just wasted your money on.

I don't remember exactly, but I think he was a combination of Blackfoot
and Lakota Sioux.

For some reason, I can't upload the pic?

As far as I know they are.
