The Kachina Doll...

The Kachina Doll...

It is light, sturdy, and a great wood for carving. The carver refines the piece of wood more and more.

The neighbor, "Hello, is this the FBI?"

"Yes, this is the FBI what do you want?"

"I'm calling to report my neighbor Billy One Foot, he's an Indian and he's hiding marijuana inside his firewood."

Well, I thought my asthma was gone, or at least under such control that I have had absolutely no symptoms in about two years now.



Well, past couple of nights I developed the wheezy symptoms of asthma at sunset that last through the night.
