Stroking my ego...

So I have been told by a few people that I write good. Toni is my number 1 fan when it comes to the erotica I have written her but I have been busted on a few times before and so it kinda gets you down. For whatever reason every single history class I have taken in college I have gotten high marks (mostly A's) and done very well in. I have a interest in history in my adult years that I didn't have in highschool. This semester I am taking a Native American History class and these are some of the things the teacher has written copied and pasted right from the grade book page on comments.

Tina, Insightful comments. There are indeed parallels between our western traditions and those of various Native cultures. My favorite is the Kiowa who emerged from a giant hollow log following a great flood. Sound similar to anything you may have heard before? :)
Hi Tina, It is a powerful film. Mel Gibson has the abilit to hit a nerve, both positively and negatively depending on your viewpoint. While the claim is that it is the Mayan being depicted it was entirely Aztec. One Spanish priest back in 1519, traveling with Cortez reported witnessing 800 human sacrifices at the Great Temple in Tenochtitlan. Blood stains on Aztec pyramids lasted decades before they finally faded. Their cruelty to their neighbors allowed them to be conqered by a very small force of Spanish... Less than 1000 vs. 600,000 Aztecs... As the Arab proverb reads..."The enemy of my enemy is my friend..." Sadly for the Meso-American Tribes, they didn't find any friends they just replaced the Aztec tryanny with that of the Spanish. Good insight into the plight of the mother and child. As a man I was struck by his friend being killed next to him but missed the mother-child tragedy. Very good analysis.
Hi Tina, I always enjoy the unique way you look at history. You write well and express your opinions in a very convincing manner. Your reference to "appealing to the softer side..." made me think. As independent, free thinkers it must have been a terrible blow to these proud people to have to yield everything they were to the American government. I'm not sure I would be ready to lay it all aside if I were in their place but then again, you have to consider the children and the welfare of the entire tribe. My son is 22 and quite the warrior at heart. He and I have discussions on historical topics like this often. He is at a stage I can remember well... ( I call it 10-feet tall and bulletproof) While I could concede to similar demands in defense of my family now...I don't think my son would, I'm sure his attitude was prevalent in the young men of the tribe. It was a sad and trying time for these people. Thanks.

Its nice to here these things. To know I put in an effort and to have the effort rewarded in A+ assignments and comments to my work. You can have your ego stroked in so many ways sometimes its nice to here plain words...
I have been uploading videos and (cell phone) mobile pics to facebook so feel free to add me there to see those additional Luca pics and videos.
