My professor's story this morning.

Today is Columbus Day and in my Ethnic Studies class, my professor decided to tell us a story about his old job back when he lived in Oklahoma while he was going to college. He was a telemarketer for Sears Venal Package...no idea what that is, but I think it's something to do with a house. ANYways, he was telling us about this friend, Shawn, that worked with him. He always came to work stoned and was always stoned when he called the clients. In between calls, he would talk to my professor. One day, he came to work REALLY stoned and had the stoner voice. To give you a little more insight, my professor is Indian and is very proud of that, I think it's really cool and it adds a little more something to the Ethnic Studies class that our professor has a background of Indian. So his friend, Shawn, says to him "Heeeyyy dude, you're Indian right?" My professor answers yes, and tells what tribe he's from. Shawn then says "Yeah, so this day (Columbus Day) has to be pretty hard for you being Indian and all. I think they should call it 'Stolen Land Day'." Ha ha I just thought that was so funny hearing a stoner talk about Columbus Day. What a great way to start out a class.
