Can't paint all the time.

 

            The book has been sitting around forever. I got when it came out and pushed through the first few chapters. Its ok. A lot of back story. Which I could care less about. The Marine's struggle in ROTC I found entertaining. The rest is just fill. I did finish it watching the kid do homework. Why cause all home work is on a PC now. She cannot stay focused without someone sitting on top of her narrow ass 24/7. Suck but does provide time to read.

        It got Custer in it. Not Custer, the Indians got him. The Anhueser-Busch had Adams create"The Custer Fight." That painting was every where. It hung in 1000s of bars. Dad was a Custer nut from childhood till death. His father my grandfather bought home one of these prints from a bar. Maybe in the 50s? (Have to ask my Aunt. Maybe she remembers.) Now I have it! 

      Anyways the in 46 the original was destroyed in a fire. It has be manys a dream that it wasn't and someone has it. In the book that is the story. Some how the original survived.


            New Pod Cast. Y'all need to listen to the "Iroquois History and Legends." The two dudes speaking are great. They do have that punk music thing going in the beginning, but spectral story telling.
