...took away our ways of life, the tomahawk and the bowie knife, took away our native tongue and taught their English to our young.

Morning Pete!! I see you are up.

Today's title is taken from the following. I heard it today whilst cruising the freeway.

Not the only one......

Cherokee Reservation
DON FARDON

They took the whole Cherokee nation
And put us on this reservation
They took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the bow and knife

They took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan

Cherokee people
Cherokee tribe
So proud to live
So proud to die

They took the whole Indian nation
Locked us on this reservation
And though I wear a shirt and tie
I still part Redman deep inside

Cherokee people
Cherokee tribe
So proud to live
So proud to die

And some day when they've learned
Cherokee Indian will return
Will return will return
Will return will return

You need to sleep more! What you doing up?

Bow and Knife...? LOL... bugger I heard Bowie Knife. Should have realised it wasn't that as it wasn't even used by the Indians. Ah well still a decent title.

I suppose I best sort it out. Preferred the original version mind.

It took FIFTEEN MINUTES to post this answer in IE. In Firefox the site is still loading!

Anyway, sometimes I work all night - it's quieter...

Well yes it would be... it is when people sleep.

Funny this must be the first chat thread started this early that is actually a legitimate chat thread.

Maybe Will should add a chat-room facility...

Of course we could always use this: http://gabbly.com/

until then...

That said, I am now going to sleep...
