Two arrowheads  and what I think was possibly the head of a tomahawk. 


It would be illegal to remove them from their original locations, but I am still keeping one of the arrowheads for my own momento. 


Yes, I am an evil bastard who cares not for others.

Does anyone else remember when a feminist movement was the Charleston?

My mother may have remembered that.  :thumbup:

What is that, some new political thing that's just starting? Cool!  :snowman:

There is even a feminist party here in Sweden.

Not personally, but I much prefer that.

Yes.



The ones who lived here in the time just before Euro settlers came here were Miami.  From what I know of the styles, this fits the profile of Miami arrowheads.

Without "stealing it,"  which I had already planned to do anyway, and assessing it at the IU site, I will not be sure. I am not a scholar nor an authority, I am merely  an enthusiast, thief and a grave robber.

Rusty pieces of barbed wire, between thin branches of the same colour in the street.
Saw them in time to prevent flat tires on my bicycle.
Have picked them up, and thrown them back on the building plot they came from, when all trees and hedges were slaughtered there yesterday.

What I didn't find was a winning card at Bingo.  The only good thing is that you get to play free on your birthday.  Yay!  Two hours of hope and no dough (outflow or inflow).

Can't remember their names.

They came to fix my sewer and rain-pipe. Did not expect them, had no idea an appointment had been made. So, found them by surprise. Had they been half an hour later, or had my mail been here half an hour early, I would have missed them. And that would not have been too bad.  :P

I did not even know that it was all broken.  :asthing:

All things come to those who wait, even if they don't know they're waiting.

A good man is supposed to be hard to find.  Finding 2 good men is darn near impossible.

This movie plot sounds vaguely familiar?
