So there I was thinking about my demise and how I might depart with many unanswered questions. How did I end up like this and what and who influenced me the most in my life?
My undisputed PRIDE comes from my maternal Wayuu grandfather, he installed in me lots of justifiable hatred in my heart, which gave me the wisdom to avoid and be vigilant and strike back at those that have done my people wrong.
During my most impressionable teen age years in USA I met two guys in their late twenties, Dennis Banks and Russell Means, both American injuns. They shaped me into the most vindictive but at the same time proudest and happy modefoque you see.
These two AIM (American Indian Movement) leaders took me under their wing and protected me during many bar room brawls. They saw me as a notorious white girl magnet and protected me from getting my face stepped on.
During the BIA building take over in Washington DC, I was bunker down with them in one of the safest area of that building.
I will continue to share more and more personal moments before I disappear from this cyber world and retire to end up an old drunk in Barranquilla.

Robert Jorge says on Dec 19, 2007, 12:17: I thought the number one theme to Elmo's posts was chucha.

Desideria (Moderator) says on Dec 19, 2007, 12:28: No, it's the lack of the rat-like, smelly animal in HIS life. Elmo does not even like women, he much prefers the company of men, to tell his outrageous stories, make them laugh, make them want to hear more. I feel sorry for every aging man who has not learned that women can be also FRIENDS. "I have opinions of my own, strong opinions, but I don't always agree with them."-President George W.
