I LOVE THIS! TOO GOOD TO PASS UP!
The following scene took place on a flight between Saskatoon and Calgary.
A white woman, about 50 years old, was
seated next to a Native American man. Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air
Hostess. 'Madam, what is the matter,' the hostess asked. 'You obviously do not see it
then?' she responded. 'You placed me next to a native man. I do not agree to sit next to
someone from such a repugnant group, give me an alternative seat.' 'Be calm please,' the
hostess replied. 'Almost all the places on this flight are taken. I will go to see if
another place is available.' The Hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later.
'Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the economy class. I
spoke to the captain and he informed methat there is also no seat in the business class.
All the same, we still have one place in the first
class.' Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued. 'It is not usual for
our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the first class. However,
given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit
next to someone so disgusting.'
She turned to the Native American guy, and said.
Therefore, Sir, if you would like to, please take
your hand luggage because a seat awaits you in the first class.'
At the moment, the other passengers who were shocked
by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.

FULL BLOODED NATIVE FROM BROCKET RESERVE SAYS
BROCKET 99 "IT'S COOL"!
I had a very pleasant conversation with a young man from the Brocket
reserve tonight who said "well never really got to get much into it,but i thinks its
cool" He was of course speaking of Brocket 99. He went on to say that he thought some
of it was stupid (too).
We talked for a good half hour and this polite intuitive guy told me
that life on the Brocket reserve is cool and sucks sometimes too. He thinks he'll move
into the city about an hour away after he graduates. He's not sure what the rest of his
family will do. He said the pow wows are good when I asked what was cool in Brocket. 'It
gets way too cold especially at night' and he likes the Brocket summer much better. He is
a full blooded Piikani (Blackfoot for Brocket he tells me) born and raised on the Brocket
reserve. It was great talking with this very intelligent young man. He shows fantastic
promise and is a credit to his people and all people. I thank him for contacting and
talking with me! - Michael
NATIVE COMEDIAN DON BURNSTICK COMMENTS ABOUT BROCKET 99
December 4th, 2003
Sent to Michael Anthony. Owner of Brocket99.net
"when I 1 st started doing comedy alot of people asked me
if I was the one who did brocket 99..........of cousre I said no. plus the damage it
has done over the yrs to the stereo typing of our people.......it was one of the things
that inspired me to become a comedian....to show what I believe is true Indian
humour...that is why I don't swear in my shows. or cds....
lets get one thing out of the way....my stance on brocket 99 is one of
disgust.....the humour on it was not funny and very very crude. and total dishonored the
Blackfoot nation.......when I 1st heard it all I could think was" how the people in
brocket....Pegan Nation felt. still not sure the origin of that particular recording but I
think it first serviced in the late 80s.......it was there I wanted to show what I felt
was true indian humour..........that is why I made my recordings..... that is it. hope you
quote me on this."
