NDN Humor

So, there I was. Doing my online “thing” at 4:00 O’clock in the morning, frequenting a favorite blog. When a comment caught my eye, not so much the comment but the username: “Fry Bread.” Whoa. This wasn’t an NDN blog, never even seen any NDN references there. Clicked the username as there was a URL attached, and came across indianfrybreadrecipe.com. Now, the blog I was on also was a business site, so I also knew they pretty much want to make money with the Fry Bread site.

What I found was a very simple and clean site, about Fry Bread. Not in depth, only two pages. One page has a brief paragraph of the history of Fry Bread and another paragraph about its usage. The second page offers a recipe. The pictures on the page (two of them) were not even of Fry Bread. They looked like tortillas and sopapillas gone wrong. But OK, someone put up a quick web site trying to make money with Fry Bread. The only way I can see that they make money is if you buy Fry Bread mix from Amazon.

Then things get kewl! I didn’t know Amazon did groceries. Figured they might do jams, jellies, hot sauces, you know, gift basket type foods. So, for a lark I searched under groceries Copes Corn. They have it! $25.75 for 6 boxes (or I guess it comes in bags now).

Then there was this one. This one scared me, a silver sack of Copes Corn. Looks like someone repacked it in a silver gift sack and printed a label off their inkjet printer. Plus, there is not much detail and the “1 used & new available from $12.28” gets to me. “Used” Copes Corn? For $12.28? Must be some premium brand.

Then if you’re serious about your sweet corn, there is this fancy, high dollar gourmet, designer sweet corn.

Getting hungry looking at sweet corn AND being Kiowa, I already seen Fry Bread, what’s next? Let’s search for Pilot Crackers. Why lo and behold, a #10 Can Freeze-Dried Food was my Amazon search result. Dang, no Crown Pilot Crackers! But if you ever need #10 can of food, I’ve got the hook-up for you.

They don’t even mention what kind of food, just a big ol’ can of food.

I have been loving this OU championship season and the good NDN press Sam Bradford has gotten. A local station in Oklahoma did a report interviewing students at Riverside Indian School. Dang if the girls in the interview didn’t tear it. Take a look.

Durn NDN girls, can’t even support a brother! I love the reporter’s reaction to the girls though, “Whatever.”
