Rare White Buffalo spotted in Ozark Mountains...

According to legend, the White Buffalo Calf Woman appeared to the Lakota people around 2000 years ago. She shape-shifted into a snow-white buffalo before disappearing into the setting sun. She promised to return during a time of great shift and transformation to guide Earth’s people toward peace and wisdom. The birth of a white buffalo is now seen as the harbinger of a new and enlightened era.

Whatever you do, for god’s sake, don’t tell dumb and dumber, (Don jr and Eric) or they’ll want to go kill it.

I have far more respect for Native American traditions than I do the white evangelicals of today, who have no respect for the land and no respect for anyone who doesn’t believe in their religious extremism.

Sounds good. Maybe there's hope for the future. It should also help blend in with the snow.

that craptacular movie in which a syphilis-addled Wild Bill Hickok teams up with Crazy Horse (whaaaaaat) to hunt and kill a mechanical bull on rails posing as a very confused metaphor that charges through phony indoor sets full of soap flakes and Styrofoam without actually laying hooves on the ground.

Incredibly far-fetched and fake, but I enjoyed it. Then again, I'm a huge Charles Bronson fan. For anyone who wants to watch it in full, here's the link:
