Casinos on the reservations. How the Native Americans are getting even for that $24 worth of beads to buy Manhatten deal.

ohh nice one...how about The Gunners aka Guns and Roses...and Axl Rose. (the axe bit above)
oh and btw....thanks Tio...Haven't heard that joke in years!
"Call out the membersof the Queen's Marines.
Call out the King's Artillery.
Call out me Brother,
Me Sister, and Me Mother,
But for God's sake, don't call me!"
Thinking similarly myself for the weekend... Family (or so they say; I've long doubted) calls me about things all the time, but refuses to help when I hint at needing it.
Called that person today & they were visiting another family member at that person's job. Figure how could I know, as I am only one in oft-tested "family of 4" with a "landline", so I may not answer calls from cells this weekend.
Doubtless your phone's batteries need a rest and thorough recharge . . .
It's happened to me a lot... Always pay attention to how many minutes/days I have left, but not battery... End up with little, & it needs to recharge.
Until just a few days ago, used to leave it on overnight in case of emergencies. (I have no children, but only sibling has several.) Then realized between Midnight & 9 AM, good bet I'm home, so landline will be all I need, so can shut cell down/off.
As for rest of family, though, I'm lost:
A few years back, called father's cell to wish happy birthday. Knew he'd be @ work, so would've left voicemail. He answers, tho asking if he can call me back b/c he's at work, & that he answers all calls from me...
Point being, they know I'm home if I answer landline, & may wonder where I am if they get me on cell. However, they only have cells (oh, wish I could put them in jail for this), so they can hang-up on me after seconds even if I reach them at home; Simply lie & tell me they are elsewhere, etc.
