    In case no one knows, Grand Funk, Mark Farner anyway, went "religious", back in the 80's. A friend of mine, battled cancer big time, and lasted years, but after the second Mayo visit, stopped by my house. He got very into the church, , and got much closer to God, as he was terminal, and needed "piece of mind", that might save him, as Doc's could not. Tough dude, GREAT SKIER..damn good honest friend...even drove his motorcycle out Illinois, to the Mayo clinic. hundreds miles north. Asked nothing from anyone, and had a rough life. No dad, SUPER Mom, sister never even talked to him, real witch, he was married, but the wife left him high and dry, could not handle the constant medical stuff, took the daughter, and left him. All he was left with, last I saw him, after a 20 year battle cancer..was his house, and his Golden Retriever doggy. And only had one leg....(other cut off to stop the "C"), and he just came out of brain surgery, more ripped out..."plaster skull cap"..and in a "chair", when I saw him in 2006, ride back east. Ha gave up living, 3 years ago, but way back in the late 80's, he gave me a cassette...Grand Funk....."can't beat God, and rock and Roll!"
    But he had damn good friends, and thats good enough..still miss him...real people, and hard to find, and seem many go early..but.."we do need a new supply "Angels"..don't we?
    Anyway, sorry the long post...just remembering an old friend...RIP, "Billy Boy"...heres later Grand Funk........

Reason the tow, was his wife, and kids needed to go to. She followed us in the ride, and they stayed in motels. I slept in the van, eye on the bikes. So I'm sitting on the trailer, and some drunk Indian comes walking by. Says.."ya gotta smoke?"
    So we get to BSing, as he brings up a sad story, him drinking too much, no job, etc. I was just out a rehab myself, sober as a "sober..if ya can find one"..a judge.
    We BS'ed an hour. I told my story, him me. I talked him into giving me his half done bottle rotgut, poured it down a sewer, said, "go home...talk to your wife and friends..you need help, and it comes from others..but ya need support..and bet they give it to ya".
    I damn sure aint no saint, but I'd like to say I talked some sense into him. Indians have a terrible alcohol problem, know many still, here..but they been so freaked over, ..well, now talking over, Casino's...and the good thing? They book the old fart Rock and Roll BANDS!, .."and thats a GOOD thing!"

    I was hanging with some local chick in Flagstaff one night, wasted, and we got talking to a native American. Yes they have problems with drinking more then others but they also have a lot of pride. This was about 13 yrs ago and I think that they, the younger ones, are seeing a new pride that maybe wasn't applied as much in the past. Could be the music, casino's, or just timming?

    We have a LOT of Tribal owned property/Reservations here, Western WA. All they had before for a life was fishing it seems. Extremely poor, run down, when you would drive though one.
    Seems of late, its one casino after another, and they are massive! And have firework stands everywhere, selling better stuff than the state run junk stands. And sell smokes and beers cheaper than the state run stuff too. Now they are making a good buck, and that sure builds pride, which is inherent with them. I get along fine with the Indians here, MUCH better than any politician!
    On pride, I think its passed down generation to generation, and many 'Elders", to watch over the young. Take care of each other, not like the one parent, or double worker, daycare society we run....
