It was Autumn, and the Indians on the remote reservation asked their new Chief if the winter was going to be cold or mild.
Since he was an Indian Chief in a modern society, he had never been taught the old secrets, and when he looked at the sky, he couldn't tell what the weather was going to be.
Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he replied to his tribe that the winter was
indeed going to be cold and that they should collect wood to be prepared.
But also being a practical leader, he went to the phone booth and called the National Weather Service.
"Is the coming winter going to be cold?" he asked.
"It looks like winter is going to be quite cold indeed," the meteorologist responded.
So the Chief went back to his people and told them to collect even more wood.
One week later he called the National Weather Service again.
"Is it going to be a very cold winter?" he asked.
"Yes," the man at National Weather Service again replied. "It's going to be a very cold winter."
The Chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect every scrap of wood they could find.
Two weeks later he called the National Weather Service again.
"Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?" he asked.
"Absolutely," the man replied. "One of the coldest ever."
"How can you be so sure?" the Chief asked.
"Because the Indians are collecting wood like crazy." The man said

:: Season of Mine ::
You're a Spring. You usually are very close-knit
with your friends and value everyone frendship
you have. You're a real people person and
everyone loves how friendly you are. You're
good with encouraging people but usually don't
like to be the center of attention. You are a
social butterfly and probably are in several
circles of friends but it's just because you're
well liked and you make people comfortable.
You're both fun and wise but you are very
realistic about life.
What season are you? (pics)

~ My Kind of Beauty ~
Your beauty is all your own! You don't like to be
the same as everyone else and find that being
unique makes you more attractive. The normal
trends just don't fit you and things are just
more fun when they're upside down. You love to
be the one that turns heads with Individuality
and Spunkiness. You're kind of beauty, I would
say, could be characterized by your confidence.
Though it's not a physical trait, it
deffinately shows on you. Rock on!
