| one time I was walking back to the shop, and out of the corner of

| didn't I want to go look closer, but well you know, so I go to
| the shop, but a while later someone came in and asked for help
| getting there keys out of there car, as this was a possible thing
| then, so out we go to unlock the car with a birch bark canoo on
| top, and I got a whole insiders view of modern canoo making for
| fun and profit, which if you are an indigimous person is
| considerable, as there is a huge demand for various authentic
| native craft and performsnce in Germany, where my new friend told
| me that native cultural practisioners go and perform, he bieng a
| canoo builder, they ship over a shipping can full of bark and
| whatever else is needed, but another story is pertinent to the
| article at the top, and that was a(forget tribe name) plains
| indian.in.full regalia was interupted and critisised by a german
| with a huge book on plains indian dress, stating that the
| performers regalia was not correct, as per the book, his response
| was clasic, .....he said "anything I am wearing is authentic
| plains indian dress" .....now they are trying to nail down
| jazz..... they cant hear it or feel it,it's not there's and they
| will never have it, or understand it or like a girl friend would
| yell at people staring at us "grow your hair and get a hippy"
| edit: clasic movie on the subject
