Hello Thingys !!! I'm James. Been a Thing Movie fanatic since it scared the be-jesus out of me when I saw it on network TV at like 10 PM when I was 8 or 9!!! Holy tabernacles batman!!! I had nightmares for weeks! :shock: :shock: :shock: Just signed up for a membership here this mornin. I have been snoopin around Outpost #31 for about 4 years now. I love what the creators have done as a tribute to the movie and sci-fi subculture surrounding this epic of a movie! Make mine Thing!!!

Welcome to the Outpost James. After you survive the 300 Degree Club initition we'll show you where Mac hides his J&B... T PS: Checked your profile/MySpace, I attended my first PowWow this past summer. Very cool but no beer tent or bar. :?

I am already heating up the copper wire in the infirmary. Haudenosenee (where the hell comes this name from, anyway?), be very welcome.....and very carefull.

Regarding the origination of the word Iroquois, Another matter that surprised many contemporary observers was the Iroquois' sophisticated use of oratory. Their excellence with the spoken word, among other attributes, often caused Colden and others to compare the Iroquois to the Romans and Greeks. The French use of the term Iroquois to describe the confederacy was itself related to this oral tradition; it came from the practice of ending their orations with the two words hiro and kone. The first meant \"I say\" or \"I have said\" and the second was an exclamation of joy or sorrow according to the circumstances of the speech. The two words, joined and made subject to French pronunciation, became Iroquois. The English were often exposed to the Iroquois' oratorical skills at eighteenth-century treaty councils. The people of the Six Nations, also known by the French term, Iroquois Confederacy, call themselves the Hau de no sau nee (ho dee noe sho nee) meaning People Building a Long House. Located in the northeastern region of North America, originally the Six Nations was five and included the Mohawks, Oneidas, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senecas. The sixth nation, the Tuscaroras, migrated into Iroquois country in the early eighteenth century from present day North Carolina. Together these peoples comprise the oldest living participatory democracy on earth. Their story, and governance truly based on the consent of the governed, contains a great deal of life-promoting intelligence for those of us not familiar with this area of American history. The original United States representative democracy, fashioned by such central authors as Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, drew much inspiration from this confederacy of nations. In our present day, we can benefit immensely, in our quest to establish anew a government truly dedicated to all life's liberty and happiness much as has been practiced by the Six Nations for over 800 hundred years. Does that answer your question BUB???? Yes I am very proud and knowledgeable of my culture and traditions. Glad to be a part of this place. Me like it here...
