A documentary about the dying languages of American Indian tribes has received state honors for a group of Norman students, and is being used in classrooms as a teaching tool.
Saving the dying native languages is very important, I just wish I had more focus in learning Cherokee these days. I’ve lost my connections to the culture through distance, sickness and death and I...

What's annoying me this very moment
It feels like the middle of my foot needs to pop. It’s crazy and annoying and hurts when I walk.
When I was a kid I would always pull my leg up on to the bed if it snuck out under the covers at night. I was afraid this mean kid I went to school with and his dad had a trap door that led to my bedroom floor and they would come in at night and lay a shark next to my bed. If my leg fell off the shark would try to bite my leg off.
I still don’t let my legs fall off.

I’m sad they blacked out on his speech.
I’m glad he was able to give a speech.
There’s a Winter Solstice Fire Festival?
I know I should expect this of Seattle but I’m always disappointed that I don’t know these things.

Tea will save Starbucks. And make them a whole lot...
pool-pah:
That’s my prediction. On a similar note, Starbucks now serves London Fog. If you don’t know what that is, try it as soon as possible (its not just starbucks that makes it either).
Only if they stop using Tazo which tastes disgusting.
If they have to use bags then Republic of Tea, please!
