"Skinwalkers" on DVD
Author: Jan_&_Vickie , Nov/1/2002 07:55:43 [-05 EST]
Don't recall if we mentioned here that "Skinwalkers"
will be released on DVD 2 days after it airs on PBS. Release
date is 26 November. We've seen it advertised on amazon. com
for under US$19. We've added this info on Michael's official
site.
Speaking of Michael's official site, we have some good ideas for
giving it another "facelift" over the next few months. Somewhat
of a daunting task, considering how huge the site has gotten, but
a fun and exciting challenge! Stay tuned...

The Changing of The Tide Chapter 7
Author: Marlene, Nov/1/2002 21:57:06 [-05 EST]
The King Philip's War raged on. Metacomet led the
Wampanoag and thier allies to victory many times.
But sometimes the whites took a heavy toll on the
Indians. They invaded an Indian village and burned
it to the ground. Many women and children were
burnt alive inside thier homes.
Abigail spent her time worrying about Tagaset and
trying to do her share of the work in Agat's town.
IT was seven months now and Abigail was pregnant.
--------Agat told her that she must do less and prepare
for the birth of her baby.------Annie found
Abigail crying and thought she feared the birth.
Abigail explained it was not the birth she feared
but the fact that Tagaset would never look on her
again-------"It is November and Metacomet will stop
fighting during the cold winter months. He will
come here and Tagaset with him,"Abigail said.
----Annie comforted the girl by reassuring her that
Tagaset loves her very much and would not hold the
rape against her. After all he had killed Folsom
because of it.-----------------------------------
As Abigail had anticipated,Tagaset,Metacomet,
Sassamon and thier warriors returned one day to the
welcoming cheers of the people. Abigail waited for
Tagaset to come to her. When he came to her she was
trembling. Suddenly he smiled and took her into his
arms.-----------"Tagaset,I am so sorry,"she said,
with tears in her eyes.-------"Shirr,Abigail! Do
not cry. I love you. You are mine and this baby will
be mine. Am I right?"--------"Yes,Tagaset. Oh yes,I
love you so much,"Abigail answered as happiness
engulfed her.----The next two months passed quickly
for Abigail and the time came when Annie and the
Nipmuck women came to her wetu and started to pre-
pare for the birth of Folsom's child.-------------
---The birth was difficult and very unpleasant for
Abigail. She screamed twice and finally a tiny baby
girl lay on the ground before her.---Annie placed
some pillows behind Abigail and smiled down at the
tiny newborn."She's a darlin',she is. What will her
name be?"---Abigail looked down at her child and
smiled,saying,"I will let Tagaset name her!"----
"An honor,indeed!"Tagaset answered as he took his
place beside the mother and child."Her name will be
Bright Shell. She is fair like the white shells we
found so many times at the beaches when we were
children at Patuxet and Pokenoket."---------------
"Bright Shell! Your father has named you well, my
little baby. Someday soon I hope we can return to
Plymouth and your grandfather,Massasoit."
Tagaset just smiled,experiencing the fragile
happiness he was feeling in the middle of this
terrible war.---------------------------

Enjoying the synopsis Marlene...keep
it comin'!! A true 'Bodice-ripper' of a story!! Loving it!! Pass the tea,
I need another cuppa before Chapter 8!!
* Hi Sonja! - Marlene, Nov/2/2002 20:08:43 [-05 EST]
Glad you're enjoying the story. I just got back
from Rapid City after a full day. It's 7PM here
in my neck of the woods and a cold night is blow-
ing in---maybe-snow. I'd love to set down to share
a cuppa Greyeyes tea and get into Chapter 8 but
I'm a little done in right now. But hold on 'til
tomorrow when there will be an extra special
wedding in the Nipmuck town of Hassanamisco with
family and guests coming from far and wide.-----
----'til tomorrow!-------------
* The Changing of The Tide Chapter 8 - Marlene, Nov/3/2002
18:20:21 [-05 EST]
Tagaset had been up at dawn. He stood on the high
hill that overlooked the big lake.Closing his eyes,
he tried to remember the sound of the ocean back
home at Patuxet in early April. Sometimes when it
rained in early April it was cold by the ocean. Now,
Tagaset opened his eyes as he felt the warmth of
the sun on his face. He smiled. It was not cold here
this day in the lands of the Nipmuck. It was a
beautiful day. It was his wedding day.The Wampanoag
warriors who had guarded Massasoit(Saginaw Grant)
during his long journey from Pokenoket were sta-
tioned above the village for the day. These men
would guard Hassanamisco against any enemies that
might approuch the village,
In the wetu,Abigail sat patiently as Tagaset's
mother,Luwa(Tantoo Cardinal)placed the beautiful
crown of tiny white sea shells on her head.
"Ah! You are beautiful,Abigail,"Sassamon's wife,
Willow remarked.
"Grandfather,Massasoit,gathered many of the shells
himself,"Aana,Metacomet's wife(Irene Bedard)remark-
ed.
Abigail smiled at Aana and admired the tiny sea
shells that hung in several cascading strings about
her head.
"Yes,Massasoit said to me last night he adds
another precious soul to our family. We have always
looked upon you as our daughter. Now you have made
us happy with another grandchild,"Luwa said,as she
fussed with Abigail's headress and buckskin outfit,
"There,you are ready!"
Abigail smiled with happiness as she looked at Aana
and Willow. The girls'eyes were wide as they utter-
ed thier sounds of admiration and pleasure.
Outside in the crouded village of family and visitor
they heard the Nassawa,Winodat(Nathaniel Arcand)
alert them. "Everyone! Tagaset is coming."
John Talbert smiled and placed his hand on Tag-
aset's shoulder. "I have prayed and waited for this
blessed day,Tagaset. May God bless and watch over
this union yoday and forever,"John uttered as he
took Abigail's hand and brought her to Massasoit.
"Abigail, Agat has made you a member of The Bear
Clan of his people. My son,Tagaset is of The Hawk
Clan of my people. We,the Wampanoag and you,the
Nipmuck are again joined together by this union."
Massasoit placed Tagaset's hand over Abigail's and
then his hand over both of thier's. "It is done!"
In his heart and mind,John Talbert uttered,"Blessed
be this union!"
Sassamon took Tagaset's arm into his in the Indian
way with a brilliant smile as only Sassamon could
smile with radiance from his handsome features.
"Now we are even,my brother. We both have good
wives and we are both fathers."
Sassamon's sincere remark brought laughter and
smiles to all the faces. There was a smile of
happiness even on Metacomet's face. Celebration
went into the night with even the visiting Mohawk,
Sharonk(Eric Schweig)and Renta(Pato Hoffman) join-
ing the dancers.-------------------------------
* Thankyou Marlene - Nellie, Nov/3/2002 23:53:25 [-05 EST]
Really enjoying this!
* Continue-----Chapter 8 - Marlene, Nov/4/2002 21:38:43 [-05
EST]
A few days after her wedding, Abigail went to the
pond and removing her clothes,she observed her
reflection in the clear water. She turned half way
around and saw that her figure had returned. Perhaps
it was more mature but the slim curves were there
again.
She knew Tagaset had been without a woman for months
now and that he wanted only her. Abigail loved him
all the more for his patience and gentleness.
Abigail thought long on her situation as she bathed
in the pond. She was so afraid to give in to her
own desire for Tagaset because she had been a
virgin when Folsom raped her and even though she
knew it would not be the same with Tagaset, she
still dreaded the moment when she must make love
with her husband. She can put it off no longer!
It must be tonight!
Abigail watched Tagaset place the sleeping Bright
Shell into her little infant carrier. He returned
to Abigail and his bed of Animal hides. He kissed
her on the forehead. Then he was ready for another
restless night as he turned his back and stared
into the darkness. However,at that moment,Abigail
placed her hand on the Indian's shoulder and kissed
him on the neck.
Tagaset turned to face her and soon realized what
was happening. He kissed her on the lips and took
her into his arms. It was as she had hoped it would
be. Tagaset was gentle and patient. Soon thier
passion ignited thier desire for each other. They
made love until the first light of day. She no
longer feared. She loved Tagaset even more. If that
be possible. Abagail feared only one thing now. She
dreaded the fact that the day would come when he
must leave her and Bright Shell and return to
Metacomet and his war.

I like all his sites I read on Bufflo

Nathaniel it made me sick

not the one they was putting down.

Actually I hadn't heard any of the 'fuss' but checked it out after it was
mentioned here a few times. I found the 'clone' site ...and lo and behold
some of MY captures were on it too! Hey, it's only 'netiquette' to ask
if you are going to do things like that, especially as they can take quite
a bit of work. Strangely the lifted pics weren't from Greyland (where I've
embedded Greyland into them )... or even from Nathaniel's Official site
(where I've willingly supplied some) .... but from the MG Fans shared files!!
Now that's a bit of a kick in the teeth! LOL

Nathaniel is ok but hes not that well

in the United States. I saw the site
you have posted
up top. I been hearing about that
all the fussing and
putting down it does. I read it for
my self now I know it
is true. I don't think I will be
going back any more
because I don't want to get involved
with the fussing and the put
downs. I have to many problems of
my own I come on the internet
to relax. Nathaniel is ok but its
not worth the fussing and fighting.
My favorite is Michael Greyeyes He
is a all time actor.

Here you are again! There is a fuss
going on we can read
it on Laura's site. I have seen the
clone site as that other lady calls it.
And it looks nothing like Laura's
site. Nathaniel should be proud of his sites
but I don't see how he can enjoy
them with this naging going on nag nag nag. The
way it looks Laura is your friend
the other site is the competition
by placing negetive ads about the
other site hopefully it will give your friend's
site the advantage. PEOPLE'S NOT
STUPID. If I was Nathaniel I would find me a back
door and you girls could go at it.
I guess you are girls you have girl names.

Hi Jan
Nathaniel Arcand isn't that well
known especially in
American. None of my family or friends
has heard of him
except when I mention him. I can't
find people on the internet
who does know him. I went to Laura
site its cute I like
the wolves. But I don't see what
all the talk is about
him for. Nathaniel is not good looking
at all he is to
baby face. I don't like baby face
men they look to much like
girls. I hope he can act better than
he looks. Sorry
Jan but I speak my mind. Michael
Greyeyes is Well know
and popular,and know wonder he just
happens to be a Handsome
man who is a exllance actor. Jan
there is no comparison between
Michael and nathaniel. Michael wins
every time Jan you
know that keep your with your first
love Michael rules!!!!!

And i watch the lone ranger. More

I think it was a insult to the lone

If it makes a series
i will not let my daughters watch

gotten different actors

Once again friend, we do not need to trash other people's WEBSITES in order
to show consolidarity for our own celebrity. Laura worked hard on her site,
and has made a site that fans, and Nathanial, enjoy and like! THAT is what
important! As to your thoughts on the Lone Ranger movie, my comments can
be found in another thread where I answered someone calling themselves
simply "Help!!!". Thanks for visiting.

Everyone here has the right to "sopken"! (sic) Greyland is a free country

actor. While I am first and foremost a Michael Greyeyes fan, I do not need
to trash other actors in order to justify my admiration for Michael.

PBS has just launched a new website for its upcoming
presentation of the Mystery! movie, "Skinwalkers." In a
section about the cast and the roles they play, there is
a section about Michael and his role as Dr. Stone in this movie.

"Dream Keeper" possible earlier broadcast?
Author: Jan_&_Vickie , Nov/14/2002 14:39:53 [-05 EST]
We recently saw an unofficial mention that the Dream Keeper miniseries
might be shown on ABC in May 2003 -- we had previously seen a
"ballpark estimate" of November 2003. If May is indeed the airdate,
that's certainly good news for Michael's fans. He's looking forward
to
his fans seeing his performance, in which he plays a Thunder Being
who falls in love with a mortal Iroquois woman who bears him a son
called "Thunder Boy." (Note: Thunder Boy is played by actor Nathaniel
Arcand's little son.)
As soon as we get more definite news on an airdate, we'll
certainly post it on Michael's Current page and let you all know
here as well. Wanted to pass this along, though, just in case.
Best wishes,

We just viewed the trailer for Dream
Keeper on the Hallmark
website. Twice actually. Did not
catch a glimpse of Michael
as the Thunder Being, but perhaps
your eyes are sharper than ours!
Take a look.
Here's the link to Hallmark's site,
then click where it says
Trailer. http://www.hallmarkent.com/minisite.cgi?property_ID=DreamKeeper
This miniseries certainly looks beautiful.
Looking forward to seeing it.
Michael tells us the special effects
are totally amazing. Like, think

that good, he says.

* Re: Re: "Dream Keeper" possible earlier broadcast? - Sonja,
Mar/11/2003 01:12:14 [-05 EST]
Hey there "Help!!!!" *g*. Well yeah... I guess there was only ONE Bruce
Lee! (I'm a great fan!)
I haven't seen the latest Lone Ranger movie yet, but Nathanial fans love
it!
I guess with the Martial Arts trend in movies these days it is only natural
that this old Western legend would get the Kung Fu treatment...even though,
of course, no one had heard of Tae Kwon do back then. :)
There is so much flack these days about making movies real, true to the
time period they take place in, and showing indigenous peoples correctly
etc. So in that context I guess a Bruce Lee type 'Tonto' is not kosher...however...since
you've popped into OUR board to complain, I'm guessing you are a Michael
Greyeyes fan? Would it have been such a crime if it were MICHAEL playing
a Kung Fu fighting Tonto, I wonder? *tee-hee* Mind you, even I'D draw the
line if 'Tonto' could suddenly "Releve en Arabesque"!! *chuckle*

I must say Nat looked absolutely buff and fandabbydozy in the part! OK,
it was a'jazzed' up version of 'The Lone Ranger' ...but hey, who says that
wasn't an improvement.
I actually enjoyed watching Nat using some of his obvious martial arts
prowess...and as he'd said he was really keen to do a martial arts type
film in an interview on Buffalo Tracks I would have said this was right
up his alley! Actually his obvious skill in that field was surely why he
was cast in the part!
I enjoyed it anyway ...nothing to do with the fact that Nat looks like
he's been hitting the gym regularly(ahem).
Anyway, on the 'drool-o-meter' I give it a 9! *g*
Marnie
PS would I be an absolute traitor if I posted a lil' pic of Nat's pulchritude
here? Hey ...he's a definite entrant in the bare chest contest now ...must
add him to the page!! LOL

Ooooh yes, YES, on the small wonder of Nat! And absolut-ay-moir he's a
great candidate for the Bare Chest comp! We'll get the pics (and captions)
all ready for ya gals...and get em up on a page!!

Michael has just answered an interesting question from a schoolgirl

I bet Michael got good report cards from Kent State
also. I'm sure his mom's apple pies alone were
worth many trips back to Sakatoon. I hope Michael,
Nancy and daughter enjoy many more happy reunions
for many years to come.

I bet Michael would settle on an orange if he was
ever down Florida way. I understand he likes pizza
real well also. When making "Crazy Horse" five years
ago in my neck of the woods, lots of the cast(Indian
and cavalrymen) could be found in Pizza Hut. I wish
they were still around here, especially the star.

* For Marlene - Jan & Vickie, Nov/20/2002 13:22:19 [-05

Not to worry about Michael's extremely short haircut. He had
cut it for another project and it was only starting to grow out
when he was invited to the Body&Soul set. It was quite
shaggy/scraggly when we saw him in July in Cuckoo's Nest -
purposely that way for the look of his character in that play.
J&V
* Jan&Vickie - Marlene, Nov/20/2002 17:23:29 [-05 EST]
Thanks for the info about Michael's short hair. It
didn't affect his great work as Cornstock. As you
probably guessed,I'm one of those folks who really
love long hair on men. I know it takes a lot to be
in films and I can truthfully say Michael is my
very favorite actor.
* Marlene - Jan & Vickie, Nov/20/2002 18:10:12 [-05 EST]
How wonderful to read your words about Michael being your
favourite actor. Thank you.
We too thought his performance in Body&Soul was exceptional.
Considering Michael was given like a moment's notice to fly up to
Saskatoon and had only about one day to learn such a large amount of
dialogue -- and to give such a fine performance despite this -- it's
certainly a testament to his talent, skill and professionalism.

points you to the Skinwalkers interview. There's another chance at 1am

Marnie, thanks for finding that link to the "past programs."
We just checked and it looks like yesterday's program is not
yet uploaded (Thursday's program is there). Maybe it takes them a
day or so to get the tape ready.
Suggest you all check later today or in another day or two. Michael comes
on the air about 40 minutes into the program. He speaks for a solid 8 minutes,
approximately. Then at the very end he speaks for about half a minute.
His comments are insightful, thoughtful and very interesting. Hope you
all
get the chance to listen to the program.

Stolen Women and my Captured Heart
Author: Christine , Nov/22/2002 19:51:36 [-05 EST]
Hello MG, Fans, Jan, Vicky,
Just finished watching Stolen Women, Captured Hearts -- again (3rd
time). I absolutely love this film; must read the book. And -- I must have
the tape someday or I will have a nervous collapse!! Also, I nearly had
the wrong Lifetime Channel -- was confused, so be careful one and all.
It comes on again at 6:00 a.m. (Saturday). Setting the alarm. MG's eyes
are fantastic, penetrating -- such an expressive face. All the faces in
the Native American village were marvelous, and such fine acting. Love
the scene where the young warriors were lined up on those gorgeous horses
before going into battle. Wonderful photography. Custer, tho' I dislike
the man completely (historically), was quite good and quite accurate in
portraying his true ruthless, but charming, character. Read the books about
him written by Mrs. Custer. Interesting. It's a wonderful film. MG should
be very proud. And he is I'm sure. That period is a very, very dark chapter
in USA's history. Can't wait for Skinwalkers on Sunday. Congrats to MG.
Love Hillerman. Was very distressd, too, to discover, thru Hillerman's
books, that the SW reservations have Bubonic Plague in this day and age!!
My WebTV is kicking up again and again -- gotta go. Love and much luck.
Christine
Oh -- wrote to Jan and Vicky in re Body & Soul -- terrific.
MG's intense eyes are just too much. He commands the screen. Makes you
want to commit a "small" crime just to be interviewed by Detective MG!!!
Would make a good series -- playing a detective -- but too confining I
guess. Loved him, too, in Chuck Norris' episode. Busy, busy man. Blessings,

Homepage: Michael Greyeyes' Official Fansite
We'd love to read everyone's comments
on Michael's performance
last night as the villainous Dr.
Stone!! He totally enjoys
reading feedback from his fans on
his performances, so please, post away!
We absolutely loved the movie. Top-notch
performances by the entire
cast. Thought Michael did a superb
job, playing the doctor with this
veneer of kindness, gentleness and
caring -- with no one suspecting the
good doctor was actually a cold,
unrepentant psychopath!
You may have read on the OS' Interview
page, Michael's comments about being
very ill with a cold or flu the day
of that final fight scene with Adam. Having to
float in that chilly water couldn't
have helped his condition!
Regards,

* Skinwalkers -- Chills up & down my spine - Christine...,
Nov/25/2002 14:06:30 [-05 EST]
Dear Jan & Vicky,
I hadn't finished reading Skinwalkers a few years back, and so I nearly
dropped dead at the climax and outcome of the film -- I was completely
surprised. I wasn't going to mentioned the plot -- but Sherlock Holmes's
creator, Sir Arthur C. Doyle, said the very worst criminal of all is a
Doctor. Just think of Dr. Mengele of Auschwitz fame, who was handsome and
very charming giving sweets to his victims, little children, twins, then
performed fiendishly diabolical experiments on these little innocents.
Michael knocked me out completely. He was so caring, concerned and such
a wonderful Doctor. You would beg to find a medical man like him. I tell
you I nearly fainted dead away. I repeat myself constantly: his eyes, intense
expressions, he's thinking inside that beautiful head. I love the film
and no breaks, thank God. Was glad to see the Stolen Women... chieftain
in the story (I'm certain that was he). My WebTV screen is blurry a lot
making reading difficult. I love Hillerman's dryness like the desert itself.
So haunting, and eerie too. The tragedy of Leaphorn with his wife, Chee
is just wonderful remaining close to traditions. The Navajo Way is to Walk
in Balance and Chee does just that the best he can. The women are all gorgeous.
I'm very fond, too, of Wes Studi. His Geronimo tore my heart out. Two great
American spiritual leaders are Geronimo and Crazy Horse. Is it possible
to purchase MG's Crazy Horse? Hope so. Oh -- am going on and on, but I
want to tell one and all that MG will be in True Women, 12/21, Lifetime
Channel, 7:00 p.m. It's based on Janice Woods Windles' novel. Don't know
her. Saw this in TVnow site just by chance. Now that's a Xmas present for
all of us. It must have been awful for MG in that last scene and feeling
so unwell. He was fantastic. That ghostly image and his changed expression
was frightening. It has been a fabulous Greyeyes Film Festival lately.
My only criticism is that Robert Redford didn't have MG present at the
Making of Skinwalkers' short. I was a bit annoyed, but I'll forgive Redford.
He has a good heart for the Native American and for the Earth. Sorry to
go on. Have a Happy Thanksgiving. Love to MG and his family.
Blessings,
Christine
* Very Interesting! - Marlene, Nov/25/2002 14:46:56 [-05 EST]
But then that's Michael. He will always give his
all to turn in a great performance for us.
I'm so very anxious to see his performance as Dr.
Stone after all your comments and info.
Thanks to all the MG fans and to you, Jan&Vickie.
A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL.

The PBS station had "Frontier House"
on instead. It
was a stupid thing about a child
worrying that her
parents would kill her pet pig for
a fair because
that was farm life. I don't mean
to sound bitter
but when I waited so long to see
Skinwalkers(DARN!)
I just put on SWCH and Graveyard
Shift. Then I got
comfort.
They have Skinwalkers adverticed
for today. But I
think I'll just buy the video from
Amazon. We'll
see!

work, work, work!)
Wow its been a good MG run of late!! There's been so much on for
everyone to see! I'm still sitting down here in the sunny south waiting...waiting...for
any snippet of a show with MG in it *sigh*. I'm pretty sure Skinwalkers
will come to South Africa sometime....if only on video. Well, I'm trying
to be a Positive Polly here!
MISSED the radio interview *ducking flying noodles...hmmmm...thanks,
whoever added that bolognaise sauce!* But you have to be online to get
it of course, and well, you don't want to hear about my phone bill woes!
Happy Thanksgiving to those of you in the US! Guess weather is getting
colder and colder, huh? I'll think of you all, (and MG in that icy water
in final scenes of Skinwalker) as I laze next to my pool, icy cold cocktail
in my hand *g*! So...we don't get as many MG sightings...but we get the
sun...and heat...and sun...and dryness...and sun....

Hmm ....ya know Sonja ...if you wa-a-ant
to hear the radio interview just go to the Native America Calling archive
and just download the bit from forty minutes in (on 'real player' just
move the slide up about three quarters of the way.) NOW will you quit complaining
about the phone bill!!? LOL
Loved 'Skinwalkers" ...but I knew
it, I knew it ...he DIED again! Now I know he dies really well but this
is becoming a habit! teehee
Must say he was totally convincing
in the part especially in that last scene, kinda wicked in more ways than
one!
For an alternate ending ...I say
he chucks one of his catch at Chee and while Chee is getting fish scales
out of his eyes Stone makes a run for it ....to cause more mayhem in many
many sequels ...our very own Dr. Evil *g*

* Groan groan groan! - Sonja, Nov/26/2002 02:34:16 [-05 EST]

However,I finally got to see "Skinwalkers"
I'm glad
I didn't give in to my flastrations
and go over to
Custer State Park and let a buffalo
set on my head.
Michael,Wes,Adam and Saganaw Grant
were just
excellent.

* Let a buffalo set on your head!??!!! - Nellie, Nov/26/2002
22:49:30 [-05 EST]
Haahaha! that's the second big laff l got today.
Sure did enjoy that movie. l think Michael can play
a
good bad@ss!!!!
As to the first laff l got today. l have a big fat
longhair black cat who came running a real fast
clip and he put on his brakes as he was approaching
the back of a
bookcase that sticks out about a foot. He stopped so
fast he flipped head over heals onto his back,
righted himself up and
zipped away in an instant. It is amazing how fast
cats move. They lay down day and night and then have
the energy of a rocket. But it looked so funny.
* Buffalo and Cats! - Marlene, Nov/27/2002 15:21:52 [-05 EST]
Yes,cats are really interesting animals. I bet Jim
Chee's(Adam Beach) cat named Slim really took off
in a hurry when he saw and felt the phyco killer and
warned Chee by meowing loud. Michael sure does have
great talent even as a killer.
As to the Buffalo sitting on my head--HAH! I'll
never get that mad again.
Skinwalkers Encore and Don't Forget 12/21
Author: Christine , Nov/26/2002 14:25:41 [-05 EST]
Hello out there in Michael Land,
Skinwalkers was on again Monday, 11/25, much to my surprise. Had
I known it was to be shown again, I would have posted it here. It's even
better the 2nd time around. I am still stunned by Dr. Stone; was completely
shocked. MG was just marvelous. I really love that part of the world. Would
love to see Four Corners and the Anasazi world. I really loved the ending
with Mrs. Leaphorn receiving the Blessing Way in the Hogan and Leaphorn
accepting the ritual. There are many stories where these Healers are successful.
Dont't forget 12/21, MG in True Women. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL, MG, HIS
FAMILY, AND TO AMERICA!! I believe it was a great Native American who gave
this Holiday to early Americans. Take care.
Christine
Forgot: PBS Skinwalkers Site!!!
Author: Christine , Nov/26/2002 14:45:45 [-05 EST]
And -- I forgot to mention that to give a look-see at the PBS Skinwalkers'
site which has all kinds of goodies explaining Skinwalkers, the Navajo,
Navajoland, their structures, customs, Hillerman, etc., etc. Their jewelry
is my very favorite in the world. The Navajo Religion is gorgeous: The
BeautyWay. There's info there, too, on Dr. Stone. What a guy! I'm afraid
of doctors as it is; now, I'm truly petrified.
Cheers,
Christine

is fantastic.

l used to live in Az and never knew
anything about
the Navajo except that when mom took
me to Phoenix on
Satrday sometimes we would see Navajo
ladies sitting
on blankets in front of the five

with all that beautiful jewelry for
sale. Once while
we where on the bus going home l
saw those ladies in
horse drawn wagon heading out of

Those days are long past. Phoenix
has joined the

thoughts then pop them in the OS guestbook or send directly to the OS e-mail
No later than December 15th for those please!
Hang on,hang on ...there's more. Did any of you happen to read any
reviews of "Skinwalkers" in your local papers? If so post em here ...c'mon,
typing is good for your wrists...ahem!

They should be getting passed on in December so if you have to know just

Thanks a lot, Marnie.
Hope you all can take a minute to
send your holiday greetings
to Michael via our EMail address:
GreyeyesFansite@canada.com
As Marnie mentioned, we (J&V)
will be compiling all greetings and
forwarding them to Michael the week
before Christmas.
Also, if you have any new questions
for Michael's FAQ pages,
please EMail them to us as well.
We expect to be speaking
with him again around mid-December
and will pass them along.
Happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans
here. Hope no one
gets snowed in on their trips to
grandma's house...while a
certain member in South Afica who
shall remain nameless basks
by the pool under hot summer skies,
sipping Chardonnay and
working on her suntan...!
P.S. Thanks to those of you who've
already sent your comments about
Michael's performance in "Skinwalkers"
- he said he was very happy
to read them.
Regards,
J&V

Check the website for your local PBS station. Looks like at
least some PBS stations are re-airing Skinwalkers. One fan tells
us
it will play in her city tomorrow (Thursday) evening at 10:00 p.m.

* THANKS GUYS! - dale, Nov/27/2002 13:12:21 [-05 EST]
They showed it in my current city
at 9pm after a special on the Windtalkers.
PBS always airs their programs more
than once(or twice).
I'm going to check for Sat listings!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

..can you give me feedback on a possible question for MG?
I asked a while ago if he celebrated Thanksgiving,but I never got
an answerOr did the question even go through?
I was wondering if this is TOO personal a question.
I know many NA have no problem celebrating while oters have very
strong feelings about not honoring that day.
* Hi Dale! - Marlene, Nov/28/2002 14:22:22 [-05 EST]
I know when I was living in Hull some
militants
from the Boston Indian Council didn't
celebrate the
day. That year they even had a protest.
One girl
wanted a Kiowa neighbor of mine and
myself to march
on Boston with them. My neighbor
said he celebrated
Turkey Day with his wife's fine cooking
and he,
watching a football game. I know
for a fact many
Nipmucks also celebrated the day
as a traditional
American(All American)holiday. But
remember it's a
USA holiday! Anyway have a great
day Dale!
* THANKS MARLENE! - dale, Nov/28/2002 19:29:38 [-05 EST]
I appreciate your input very much.
I'd LOOVE for MG to give me his opinion......
Enjoy the rest of your evening!

Hi Dale, we will pass this question
on to MG in December,
along with your 2 other queries (re.
Cleveland, Chicago).

Just for Sonja ...and to chase away her winter blahs (well all those
cocktails by the pool must be pretty dreary!) a little taste of "Skinwalkers".
Who knew a guy could look so good in gaiters!
Marnie
PS Happy Thanksgiving to all US MG Fans!

Woah!! Be still, my beating heart!
It's Monday morn here and what a way
to start the day! Just what the doctor ordered! I've been a wee bit nutty
lately, preparing 95 kids under 12 years of age, for six large impressive
theatrical productions designed to impress parents and make them re-inroll
their children for ANOTHER year at my Children's Drama Academy! Must say
by the end of the year I'm wondering WHY on earth I'd want them BACK next
year! *g*! But it's a living, I guess!!
Anyway, thats all over now...Saturday
was D-Day and it went quite well all things considered...although I took
to bed for the rest of the weekend! But here I am, bright eyed (after that
yummy pic!) and bushy-tailed, ready to take on the world!! Roll on Christmas!
Now HOW to celebrate it in Greyland this year......any ideas????
* Sonja - Marlene, Dec/2/2002 14:39:00 [-05 EST]
I didn't know you were a big time drama producer.
That's great--hope they all come back next season.
Glad you're back bushy tailed and bright eyed.
Yup!It's Christmastime again. I loved last year's
deal on MB. Suggestion:More pictures of MG with
elves,Santa and Marnie's dog in front of XMASS TREE.
Hope I get a special present from Marnie this year--
---permission to use that painting of Michael on
Chat Page for cover of my book, "The Changing of The
Tide"
Cheers!
Marlene
* a tangled web - Marnie, Dec/2/2002 23:48:47 [-05 EST]
Hi Marlene, Are you talking about the big green one that you have to kiss
or the smaller purply one? Besides my confusion there's another problem.
As it's of a celebrity if you were to use it for a book cover (especially
if it were a money making venture)then you'd best get permission from Michael
Greyeyes too! It's a bit of a grey area actually ...If I just did one from
scratch using a model or made up entirely that's a different story. Sorry
to rain on your parade :(
Marnie
* WOW! - Marlene, Dec/3/2002 14:17:21 [-05 EST]
I was talking about the big green painting that you
have to kiss. Boy this really gets involved.
I'm running into trouble trying to get permission
from an Indian guy that took a snapshot that I wish
to use on my first book "Echo of An Angry God" I
can't locate him.
Anyways,thanks Marnie. I love that painting of
Michael.

up.
