I'm counting on you to carry this New Day edition. Please ask and answer your own question. Make it good. Let's see who gets the most answers. Maybe we'll dedicate an entire edition of New Day to it. Go for it.
It's after 1:00 AM Central my time. I'm wiped. Flying all day yesterday to get here. Driving from Tulsa to the rez this morning after stopping to buy a chair to sit in for 9 hours. But well worth it. I arrived in White Eagle at 2:15 PM. The festivities lasted well past 10:00 PM. Amazing. I had a wonderful day. AIM Veterans were honored all day and I got to give my/our tribute to Kossack Carter Camp.
I'm in Ponca City tonight. Gotta go to bed so I can drive 2 hours tomorrow morning to Tulsa to catch my morning flight. I'll log on after I get settled at my gate to wait for my flight.
Here's just a taste of the wonderful event I attended. I took hundreds of photos and have major video that I got permission to post on YouTube. I'll post all that on Tuesday, stay tuned.
Elite drumming group for the tribute day to Carter Camp. They were excellent. Video on Tuesday.
Here's Carter grinning at me, so happy to be re-united with his fellow veterans of Wounded Knee 73'. Please click to get full sized version to see notes with identities
Here's Carter on the phone with Wounded Knee Vet, Meteor Blades. Hearty conversation to witness.
Ok. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Ack it's late. Please talk amongst yourselves, and I mean to each other, not amongst your various personalities...

Cheers & Jeers-* New Day * Dinner
TIME: 5:30 PM
LOCATION: The Brit (Britannia Arms)
173 W. Santa Clara St. (walking distance from Conv. Center) • Downtown San Jose
Every year since 2007, Common Sense Mainer has organized a dinner for the readers of Cheers & Jeers who attend Netroots Nation. It has grown every year. Last year we had over 100 Kossacks attend. CSM always chooses a restaurant willing to handle a large crowd WITH SEPARATE CHECKS. (!?!) Yes, I know, hard to believe but it's worked the last several years. This year CSM has negotiated with The Brit for a special menu and separate checks are secured. If you'd like to join us please leave a comment in this diary and you'll be put on the RSVP list below. This year * New Day * and SFKossacks are co-hosting. All regional groups are invited to attend in addition to the loyal C&J following that Bill and Michael have.
ORGANIZER: Send navajo a kosmail to attend or leave a comment.
The plenary table list below will also be the RSVP list for this event. Dinner attendees will have an asterisk by their name.
