Hi there everyone.Today I became the new arrived soul in this circle of friends.I found the site by…accident,or maybe was fate?
it brought me memories of the times I spent in Paris,the real city of lights,arts,culture etc.I love France and maybe someday I’ll be living there.I know very well how to read and translate french,but when it comes to writing and conversation…I can’t do it,english always comes in my head.
So I live in New Jersey/USA and am a freelance artist illustrator in advertising business.I illustrate TV comercials for all sindicated and cable stations all over the country.I work from home via computer.
So this is me and please give me some time to accomodate with the site and you.I am married for 14 years with Marilyn(italian-american),we have no children and both of us are 48 years old.
Till next time,
LOVE&PEACE,
Crazy Horse

Crazyhorse: Welcome! That is such a great name. I wish I had thought of it. Yes, France is such a lovely country. And the culure is so civilized. That is an interesting job that you have. It would be great to be able to memorialize one’s trips via art. I try it with photography. I wish I could do it with the pen or brush. Again, welcome. Donerail
Hi there Donerail,
Thanks for your words,I presume you’re a man,but you didn’t tell me what country are you from?I like photography a lot,of course I’m not a pro.but I toy around with a digital camera(Nikon)4Mps.I believe it’s better and easy to unload on IPhoto.
Yes I know,Crazy Horse is a great name of a very great and brave Lakota warrior who fought at Little Big Horn next to other great chiefs Red Cloud,Gall and the leader of the indians the greatest of them all,Sitting Bull.
One day I’ll tell you great stories about these warriors and many other indians.Crazy Horse was killed by wasitchus(the white men)as usual…cowardly and by treason.He was only 28 years old….
I have indian friends from few tribes but most I am related to the Navajos and am considered their brother.My best friend is a Navajo of 47 years old,Vernon Bigman.
Today I had no work coming,I have a rep who finds work for me in advertising,he takes 20% of the pay.It pays very well in adv.
I’ll come back to you another time,I have to do some chores now.
Thanks again for the warm wellcome.I have friends in Paris,old school buddies,when me and marilyn went last time there,few years back,all the time for few days since we got home we cried…very hard to forget Paris….we felt like we lived there in a previous life.
LOVE&PEACE,
Crazy Horse

Hey, Crazyhorse, I’m from Virginia originally but now live in upstate New York. I’m more familial with eastern tribes. They were farmers and were very peaceful. The tribes still have small reservations around. In VA people are very proud to have Cherokee blood in them. Wher I live now we have the Oneidas and ,of course, the Mohawks. These tribes were part of the great Iroquoise ( not spelled right) nation. The founding fathers of the US based the concept of separate states, united. Each year the representatives of the twelve tribes would meet in what is now Lake Placid. President Washington called them the "civilized tribes" What happened to these peaceful farmers, white men wanted their fertile land!
