As my esteemed F-I-L used to say, “So stupid he couldn’t pour piss out of a boot with the directions written on the heel.”Chief (and his brothers) had a million stories and tales and I wish I had had the presence of mind to record them. They were great; some funny, some not Like his great aunt Fanny (Veneranda) who was taken in 1870 by Indians as a little girl but returned because she was such a hellion. And because her father was in the habit of giving the local tribes an occasional cow when they were hungry.
Today this was truly disturbing! EVEN BURL should know better. Here is a potential “poll” question you may wish to ponder and contribute to:++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++If you were to rank our “dynamic sextet” in terms of your estimate of their IQ, who would be the “smartest” and would posses “lesser skills”? Please keep in mind that while we all know that the entire group of six is rather low on the wattage scale (even if their scores were added together), there is still going to be enough variance between them that they could be ranked. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++My own opinion is that of the six, my suggested "smartest least " ranking is 1) Marlene, 2) Jerry, 3) Dale, 4) Joy, 5) Verl, and bringing up the rear of course, 6) Burl. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Now, remember, it is not fair to bring in Patty, Timmy, Patty’s Boyfriend, or Ma… as they would all likely be a logrithmic scale level above the sextet (well, hmmm… maybe Ma might not be, I’d have to think about that). And, also no fair in including Timmy’s Dad… who might be able to out compete Burl for the bottom of the rung.

I saw one in Lybia in the desert. The sun disappeared to a ring of light and we had a 360 degree sunset with a Diamond burst of light.

They’re the types who’d use binoculars to watch a solar eclipse.
