Ulth-kiddaaa' (Long time ago,...) in a cha-ha-ohh (ramada) somewhere between the Four Sacred Mountains, he was born in the traditional way. His Chai', Old Man Moustache was a reknown horseman, with a region wide reputation for braiding horsehair bridles. He had just finished what he felt was the finest halter, when he heard the newborn cry its first living breath. Moustache smiled, wiped the sweat from his bushy eyebrows and hung the halter on a ramada cross-pole. It has been a joyful season of anticipation for their new arrival. As a patriarch he could tell from the gasping cry that,...Ush-kee Ah-teeh (Its a boy.) In his morning prayers, he sought inspiration from the Creator for a name for his expected Grandson. His daughter, who had given this gift of life was named Soi'yo'inih (Sees Stars) by her Grandfather. By the time she began to talk, she referred to her self as,.. Star. As Moustache walked up to the ramada, the womenfolk and relatives parted, forming an opening through which the patriarch walked. Star smiled radiantly and asked her father, "Shi-zhee'ih, nnl-ihh shoh, (Father, come see..) tell us what his name will be." Moustache picked up the gurgling infant, and with tears welling up in his eyes he reverently proclaimed, Nn-tsa-hokaasi ohl-yaado (His name shall be Thinker). Everyone nodded in solemn approval, thus, Thinker began his life journey during the storytelling season. (Stay Tooned)

Doola' doh duh dah heyyy! How can it be that, after this Non Indian Rapture, that Rush Limpbough is still on the radio? I carefully readjusted my radio dial after parking on the highest mesa between Lupton and Window Rock, Arizona. The reception was scratchy and static filled, kinda like everything that is offered to Indian nations. I wondered out loud if Indians actually listened to Rush. I shuddered at the thought that,.... what if I was the only Indian on earth that listend to this talk show Custer, a maniaccal egotist! I turned the tuning knob, NOPE!, not even Insanity Hannity was on the air. WAIT!!,... there it was, full of staic, but he was there,.... RUSH: Hello, hello, this is the EIB network, who am I speaking to? LISTENER: Hey Shi-Buddie, doya know dat you are dah ohnlee Billaghanna on the radio? All da FM's stations are dead on da REZ. RUSH: Now listen here, what did you call me? Billa..what! It sounded like you were saying something like "Bill-loanie"!! I demand to know who I am talking to! LISTENER: I SAT BILLAGHANNA, you bill loanie head! You are the only "white guy" on the radio. Yew alwayz sat yew were a giff from God, how come you weren't taken in da NON-INDIAN RAPTURE? RUSH: Now listen here, what AM affilliate are you listening to, and just who are you. LISTENER: I AM DA MOST POWERFUL INDIAN ON THE NAVAJO NATION! There was a sudden silence on the radio,.. I listened to Rush's labored breathing,... I could hear the LISTENER humming a almost inaudible traditional Navajo song. (STAY TOONED)

After leaving Sanders AZ with all the perplexed Johns standing around, I kept my AM radio on Rush Limpbough. He sounded panicked... he was finally without an audience. No more non-Indians, for they were all taken up in the rapture. Suddenly to my surprise he opened up the 1-800 phone lines to the public,...WITHOUT A CENSOR!!! I held my breath, could Indians be actually listening to Rush? What could they see in a person who wholeheartedly is so caught up in himself with the most egotistical arrogance. I could hear Rush trying to put in a lampooning PSA sound cartridge on his own. I could hear him swearing in the background. "(*&(*&*%*&^^)(*&)$@@*&^*&^&" (EXPLETIVES THAT CANNOT BE TRANSLATED INTO NAVAJO) he muttered! I listened closer and realized that he was still muttering, almost a desperate whisper, "Who is going to send me my talking points from the White House????,... Ohhhh, I won't have nothing to talk about!! I wish I could talke to Carl Rove,.. I'd talke to Cheney,... but he might shoot me in the face. Once more he spoke to his phantom audience, "Please!!! This is Rush Limpbough,.. GOD'S GIFT TO MANKIND!! Ohhhhh dear, at least the mankind that was left. Please, the phone lines are open,.. SOMEONE CALL ME!! You can talk about anything you want!! I listened intently as I drove between Lupton (Muttonman's hometown) and Window Rock, AZ. I was tempted to call Rush,.. but as usual, I was in a cell-phone dead zone. Even the best, most "teched out" GPS can't even register here. I kept, driving. Who would be the first Indian to call Rush Limpbough? (STAY TOONED!!!)

Last night, 62 years ago, a young Marine stood on the bow of a troopship, attending a service being conducted by an Episcopalian Chaplain. "Probaly some of you have never been to a church in your life..." said the Chaplain. "Tomorrow morning we will be landing on Iwo Jima, and we expect thousands of casualties." Although the Chaplain was not talking about the young Marine specifically, the Marine knew he had no church, the only semblence of a spiritual belief was in his left breast pocket,.. a specially prepared Navajo medicine bundle. The Marine was a Code-Talker of the 5th marine Division, Pvt Bob Etcitty Craig. He and other Code-Talkers of the 5th went to a secluded part of the ship and took out their medicine bundles and said their prayers for today, February 19, 62 years ago. In addition to their standard issue, each Code-Talker carried a 40 lb battery and radio. He was a son of the "Four Directions" and a child of the "Blessing Way", raised in the loving arms of his mother's humanity. Wisdom comes to him, through the legends of long ago, told by a man who loved the wandering eyes of a little child. My Daddy was a Code-Talker Man. With Uncle Sam's Marines, he spoke on the whistling wind, during the time of man's inhnumanity. Oh Dad, I wish I knew what you were thinking 62 years ago today. The first day on that hellish island would almost be over, and you would know that the Chaplain was right. Thus far your prayers and prayers from the distant 4 sacred mountains have been strong, forging you for your baptism of fire. You spoke of the dead and dying on the black sands of Iwo, and the unseen enemy. You knew, because of what Navajos believed that we are all the Creator's children, even the enemy. You often pondered how the families of the Japanese soldier's who lost their lives on Iwo felt. Sixty two years later, I sat in a theatre watching "Letters from Iwo Jima". O' My Father, all I could think of, were those questions you had in your mind which bothered you. At times, I think I now understand, then... I know I never will. For as one of your Code Talker friends told me, "No one will ever show what it was really like, no movie, no book, it was that bad!" You didn't realize that you were part of a legacy that will live forever, beyond the notions of todays "Patriotism" that is being bandied about by a group of "Chickenhawk" executives, who have never been to war, but now send our young men off to die. We have lost over 3,000 U.S. soldiers, they don't ask questions, they only go where they are ordered. Oh my Father, at least you had an objective to look forward to. Today our soldiers are being led by a Commander In Chief with no vision. You did your part, until you were wounded in action, then you came home. I thank my Heavenly Father for that special gift, a gift with many unanswerd questions and future anguish for a little boy who loved his father so. Every once in a while I will hear a song that will bring your face back to my mind. Sometimes I catch a quick glimpse in the mirror of myslef, and I see you for a brief moment. I recently sat and listend to Mom talk about how handsome you looked in your uniform. As long as there are Cowboys, horses, and cattle, you will always be on my mind. I think of the last trip we took to Oklahoma, along the Broken Arrow freeway, and how you admired all those horses, almost making you late for Eastern Okalahoma University's invitation to be their honored guest speaker. At the conclusion of your talke, I cried as the Cherokee Nation placed a Chieftans Pendleton Blanket on your shoulders, and all you could say was, "I'm going to give this to my daughter." On February 21, 2000 you left us, but your special "yodel", your special "sayings" will forever be with us. "CATTLE ON THE RANGE, MONEY IN THE BANK"; "WHERE THERE'S SMOKE, THERE'S LIFE"; WHAT'S THE PROPOSITION?"; NAVAJO DICK DUNNIT AGAIN!"; and the proverbial "OOOooooo Raaaah!". Dad, we all miss you and think of you. Oh, by the way Dad, when you got to the other side, did you get to see the 1940 World Champion Saddle Bronc Rider you always wanted to meet, the MarineMedal of Honore recipeint Fritz Taurens, who was killed in the South Pacific? As February 19th comes to an end, I am looking to the North Star, and remembering our song,... "Think of me when the North Star shines/ Over the Great Divide/ I'll be there somewhere between Orion and the Northern Star." I love you Dad, and I always will. Semper Fi Your Loving Son & Family

I am "Doh nuss gziddah"(No Fear), my keepers named me "Gato", imagine that, a Navajo Siamese cat born in Window Rock with a hispanic name. Thinking back, I guess thats not unusual in a commuity where you can go to a Rez Chinese buffet with Navajo waitresses, while listening to Country Music via Navajo DJ's. I was named by some chizzie boys who took me in as a kitty, and would tease me by making me chase a flashlight spot all over the wall in their room. My first home was a chain link fenced yard protected by a trio of brave guardians named Frybread, Beans, and JFK. My friend Frybread was a White Mountain rez mutt, ravaged by mange and ressurected from near death by a Navajo Code Talker named Bob E. Craig. Beans was a classy female rez blue heeler from the White Mountain Apache Nation, and because Frybread and Beans made a natural pair, JFK(Just Frybread's Kid) was one of a litter born in a Windowrock garage on Chee Dodge Drive. My owner Nephi and his chizzie brothers, documented the birth of JFK and his siblings with their father's JVC Camcorder. My owner Nephi built me a 2-story "Cat[tree]house", imagine that! For 8 years, I lived like a King in cedar tree, protected by my loyal knight-warriors Frybread, Beans, and JFK. [To Be Continued-Stay Tooned]

With a shudder I changed AM stations, seeking for other talk-show programs. I tuned into 660 to see what was happening on the rez post-Non Indian Rapture. The station sounded intact, perhaps a end product of the AM radio station becoming an enterprise, free of political interference. How long would this last? The DJ was receiving many calls ascertaining what happend to all the DPS units, they had been found in various locations on the rez idling without drivers. Occasionally there would be a report of a DPS unit driving along, with a somewhat befuddled Indian officer driving. Their only contact was with the Navajo DPS dispatchers, Flagstaff and other state dispatch offices were silent. Exasperated phone calls were coming in with Indians asking what happened to their in-laws. Suddenly it occurred to me that I was on my way to play at a show for a Bar Association, lawyers!! Would anyone be there? I approached Sanders, AZ and found my trusty gas station still intact, with all the Indian staff working as usual. There were Navajo's standing around an empty Apache County Sheriff unit with quizzical looks on their faces. "Whaa lah ho gzah! (What happened here?) they asked each other. "Ahh don't know, deres just a micro-wave burrito and some doughnuts on the car seat!" said one bystander. I walked over and listened in on the dialogue to see what would happen next. One older Navajo gentleman wondered aloud, "What about da Navajo Naguration? Whatz gonna happen dare!" "My goodness, I never thought of that!" I whispered aloud. [Stay Tooned]

Its hard to imagine Rush Limpbough not being on the air, but there he was. The sole survivor of the Non-Indian Rapture. Why had he been left behind? Was this an act of providence? The only difference now was that he was alone, loading his own intro music, skits, and Neo-Con lampooning. By trying to get someone on the phone in Washington, he contacted the lone survivor at the Department of Interior's BIA. "Hello dare,... whoze dis?" said the BIA surivor. "Whhy,.. you mean you don't know me? Rush!" "Ahhmmm, did you say MUSH?" Rush stammered, "I am Rush, God's gift to mankind!!" "Yaa mean you replaced George Bush's secretary??",.. Holy frybread! You mean there's no more BIA? I gotta get back to the Rezzzz,.. maybe the Peequats will take me in. (Silence, just phone tone.) Rush demanded, "This is the EIB Network! TALK TO ME! I DEMAND TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE IN CHARGE THERE IN WASHINGTON DC! Mr. Snurdleee.... Oh I forgot, you got taken too." The mood was getting nasty as Rush attempted to get the BIA survivor back on the line. Still no answer.... (Now he knows how Indians feel when they try to get in touch with someone at the BIA.) IZZZ DARE ANYBUDDIE OUT DARE????? Was it my hearing, or was Rush starting to acquire a boarding school accent? [Stay Tooned]

After realizing that a Non-Indian RAPTURE had possibly occurred, I began to wonder why all the NI's were taken up, up? down? I didn't know where? Why was it that all the NI's appeared to have disappeared, and that Rush Limbaugh was still on the radio ranting and raving what had happened to his studio personnel, even Mr. Snurdley was gone.(I knew he was NI!! Nobody in their right mind would agree with Rush!) I chuckled as Rush had to find and load his own intro music. His egotistical boasting and ususal ranting was subdued and confused. He kept inquiring on the air what had happened to his EIB personnel. Evidently his guest for the day was Senator McCain, and now McCain could not be found. Rush was vainly trying to phone various governmental agencies, he only received recorded messages. After failing to connect with any governmental agency, he began speed dialing his entire phone file. No answer,.. then suddenly, the phone was answered in Washington DC,... "Department of Interior, Bureau Of Indian Affairs." The voice sounded panicked. "HELLO! HELLO! ANYBHUDDIE OUT DARE? HELLO, HELLO, ANYBHUDDIE OUT DARE, MY BOSS IS GONE. WHERE IS AVER BUDDIE!!! I'M THE ONLY ONE HERE! HEEEELLLLLLPPPPPP! This is incredible I thought, I knew the BIA was a FARCE!! It sounded as if the entire Bureau of Indian Affairs had been caught up in the non-Indian rapture. What next! Oh this was going to be intersting. I wondered what Rush would be asking the lone Indian who had survived the NON INDIAN RAPTURE at the Department of Interior!!! STAY TOOONED!
