Nobody Flashes that Nobody Reads About Everything–Indian Rules

Nobody Flashes

I’m thinking about changing my template once again…I promised a reader who was having trouble reading the pages that I would, and since I don’t know a HTML from a star in the Spiral Galaxy, it’s been slow and tedious process…but I’m getting there. I admit, I like to play with color, but that doesn’t always lend to easy reading. I might try a few on for size. Please, tell me how you feel about any of them.

I’m also going to add another feature…Nobody Reads, because I read a lot of different stuff everyday…from the internet, to magazines, to books…I like a variety…and sometimes when I read I come upon things that are intriguing, and so, I will present some of them, because frankly, the guy who used to send me emails, doesn’t anymore, and on weekends, I really don’t have much to post except jokes.

I will still post emails, under Nobody’s Emails.Congress

So…enough babbling. Here’s something written by the Englishman, William Bradford, in 1620, who came over on the Mayflower and was in Plymouth.  It seems, the Plymouth Colony owned much of its people’s survival to an Indian named Squanto.  He had been to England and learned English. He not only taught them how to plant corn and catch fish, he told them how the main Chief in the area got along with the other Indians, in other words: Indian rules…and here they are.

1. That neither he nor any of his people injure or do hurt to any of their people.

2. That if any of his did hurt to any of theirs, he should send the offender that they might punish him.

3. That if anything were taken away from any of theirs, he should cause it to be restored: and they should do the like to his.

4. If any did unjustly war against him, they would aid him, if any did war against them, he should aid them.

5. He should send to his neighbors confederates to certify them of this that they might no wrong them, but might be likewise comprised in the conditions of peace.

6. That when their men came to them, they should leave their bows and arrows behind them.

By these rules, President Obama would be sent to Congress to be punished. All that he has stolen from the American people should be restored.  After that, he would have to send someone to stay with the Republicans at all times to continue the peace. And he should always leave his ego at the door.Indian peace

So, can we get these rules to the President and Congress?

  1. I am honored to have a descendant of William Bradford reading me! He was quite a man, and pretty smart in figuring out how to make things work, after all the starvation, so therefore I’m sure you’ve got those good genes handed down. Thanks for the feedback Debbie, I’ll be trying out new templates over the next month or so…this one is called ABLE. I’ll put it on the “like” list!

  2. Must be where I get my smarts from! William Bradford is my ancestor. I do like this format. I can read it so much better and can just read straight down to catch up on what I have missed.
