National Geographic magazine documented that there was a Christian Church in China that dated back to the early AD's.

Nestorian I believe.

Christian Designs Found In Tomb Stones of Eastern Han Dynasty

There are numerous Chinese poems that praise the green eyes of the ancient Han Emperors. Their 'magic-men' were also noted for having red hair.

"Other day I bounced a 133mhz Intel chip off his kitchen table and he could tell this was a ceramic. A silicon ceramic to be sure."

Made billions of chips during my 30 year career...I never spent any time in chip packaging.

What is it with mummies and red hair? Is there something about mummification that takes out dark and leaves red?

[blam]

"What is it with mummies and red hair? Is there something about mummification that takes out dark and leaves red?"

Not sure. I've read some accounts that say hair fades to red over time...then, I've read reports that say that report is BS...don't know.

I know....having been born with red hair, it fades to bald over time!

Eaker and I are the last known survivors of this tribe....we're opening a casino !........:o)

Joking aside I have a friend at work that is the guru of old tribes. I'll run this by her tomorrow if I can find her. E-mailed the story and thread to her .....

Stay safe !

[Squantos]

in fact, the name Si-Te-Cah means "tule eaters".....

Yep that's Eakers tribe alright !....:o)

[Horatio Gates]

"Tule eaters?" That's an elk right? How does one join this tribe?

[Eaker]

Yum!!!

Squantos - bite me!!!

; < )

[Horatio Gates]

I remember my first elk hunt from when I moved out to Washington from Pennsylvania. Up to that point the biggest thing I ever went after were white tails. My buddy got his elk and I didn't realize how damn big they were. I told him.'Now you did it, you killed someone's horse."

[Eaker]

LOL!!

Good manners dictate that you let them keep the saddle!!

[Horatio Gates]

It was an amusing moment for me after I realized it really was an elk. We walked up to it from and could only see the hind quarters at first and I was just amazed at the size. My next thought was, great now that we got one what the heck do we do with it?

[Squantos]

Ohhhhhhhhh "Tule".........Sorry Eaker !

Theres a joke about some lady hunter that make her shot and is jumping up and down , all excited etc etc and her guide walks up an she's huggin him and just soooooo happy and he says .........yep, great shot. Let me get my saddle off it and you can case it out....
