A Native American Femme Fatale?

 May 13, 2025

   Interesting that in fiction or movies there have been very few Native femme fatales.

Daily Revised Whip Out: "Apache Pout"

   Professor Paul Andrew Hutton sites "Run of The Arrow" and "Arrowhead," as examples of "bad In-din women" but I'm thinking more like "Body Heat" and "Chinatown" a real Native Noire would be a breath of fresh air. Okay, hold yer horses. . .


   Boy Howdy! I stand corrected. That is pretty femme and pretty fatale, with a smidge of AY-YI-YI! Proving once again the only thing new in this world, is the history we don't know, or, so said Harry Truman.

   Meanwhile, many nationalities have portrayed the good, the bad and the ugly.

Daily Whip Outs:

"Apaches I Love, On Paper at Least"

   Come to think of it, so many types never make it to the silver screen, like these guys. . .

Daily Flashback Whip Outs: "Naco Policia"

   The longest drum solo in history was 10 hours, 28 minutes, performed by a child sitting behind me on Delta flight #589 from Bangkok to LA.

New Host With The Old Guard
  Amy Gauthier, the new owner of the Ellis Store in Lincoln, with some of the Old Guard historians who showed up for my art show on July 13 of last year. We lost Herb Marsh (second from left) not long after this photo was taken. Yes, that is Paul Hutton at far left and Buckeye Blake next to me and Steve Todd at far right.

    You covered everyone in the photo but the dude in the shorts. Who is that?

    My pre-teenage memory seems to think that Hesh-Ke, played by Julie Newmar, in Mackenna's Gold was about as BAD as it gets. It also made me realize, for the first time (not the last), how completely unnecessary buttons are.
