Wendigo
I ran across a movie titled Wendigo and they portray the Wendigo as a man who can shape shift into a deer as its power. I haven't seen it but it seems like it makes the Wendigo come across as something different than we've been reading.
Wes Studi
Wes Studi is a Native American actor that has quite a few notable roles in pretty big films and he's just another example of a Native American who has become apart of the music industry.

Katabasis
Are these all the requirements of katabasis? Female Littoral, Crossing water, hero, orphan?
Mormon Sighting
I saw some Mormons the other day on the way home from Senior Chapel. They were two men, on bikes wearing the traditional missionary clothing: white shirt, black tie and pants + their name tag.

A wonderful website if you don't want to invest in Microsoft word. Especially if your a cheap bastard like myself.
Mr. Wendigo
Apparently, the wendigo made an appearance in a Supernatural episode.
That's a serious case of heartburn.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

The Men Who Stare At Goats -
I watched "The Men Who Stare At Goats" a few weeks ago, and i remember there being a few dominant Native American symbols that related to the class. One of them being being the Eagle Feather and The Sun Dance Ritual that we saw in the video in class. Can anyone remind me of what they were/meant?
