I vaguely remember that on the camping trip with Cori some of the guys from college who went along included Joshua Whiskey, who had lived most of his life in the High Sierras of California, even worked as a policeman there, before descending from the hills to attend Southern California College. Dean Chenault from Virginia, who said that he is from east of the West Virginia state line which explains why there are no rusted out cars in his front yard, no tar paper shacks in his hometown, might have also been there on the same camping trip. Joshua Whiskey had aspirations of being an Olympic runner but injuries had ended that plan. Gail Lee seemed to have been there and she and Joshua hit it off although it seemed to me that he was a bit patronizing of her. I don't think he and Gail ever really had a romantic relationship. I vaguely remember hearing him talking about his experience working for a short time as a blackjack dealer in Vegas before going to SCC. That is the type of dreary lowlife job supplied by the casino industry, which offers nothing of interest to Christians such as myself. Obviously, this is not a guy that I would be interested in introducing to my parents. I can say that about pretty much all of Cori's friends, come to think of it, which is another reason to stop hanging out with them and getting freaked out by all their weird stuff.
Cori was also present at the Desert Field Trip when we stopped in Arizona and some persons brought jewelry made by the Indians for us to purchase. I did buy a few things, perhaps a ring and a bracelet. Turquoise is so beautiful. I love it but I really never any occasion to wear it, not that it matters. So I can say that I did contribute a small amount for the support of those poor Indians. However, now that the Indians have casino dollars to finance their luxury lifestyles I would imagine there is no longer any need for them to learn how to craft jewelry and other trinkets nor any feeling of myself being obligated to buy that. The windfall casino profits now allow the natives to pay the locals to deal cards at their local casinos. Although I personally don't buy gambling, I am not worried about the financial condition of the natives. I imagine there will be no shortage of suckers of all races who can easily be parted from their well-earned dollars at the local native American casino. Thus we hear the sound of a giant vacuum cleaner sucking dollars out of the United States economy, not that I would know anything about this. I am just saying that maybe the natives would like to be held responsible for the national debt since obviously they are holding the bag.
