The True Story of the Winnebago Indians in Nebraska

An Allegorical Tale about the True Story of the Winnebago Tribe in Nebraska Territory.






This is an allegorical tale about the origins of the Winnebago Indians in Nebraska Territory. You see, a long time ago, there really were no Indians at all in Northeastern Nebraska. Instead, there were a fair number of Indians in Missouri Territory. One day the Chief of the Wango Tribe got into a big argument with the Chief of the Missouri Tribe. It seems the Chief of the Missouri Tribe felt that Missouri Territory belongied to the Missouri Indians for some reason. Rather than fighting it out, the two decided to figure out the issue of which Tribe would live in Missouri by flipping a coin, with the winner and his Tribe getting to stay. The Chief of the Missouri Tribe, Chief Long Canoe said to the Chief of the Wango Tribe, Chief Long Hair, "Tell you what, Longhair, we flip for the right to stay here, heads I win and tails you lose." Chief Wango said, "That sounds great." Chief Long Canoe flipped the coin and it turned out to be heads, so that Chief Long Canoe and his Tribe got to stay and the Wango Tribe had to leave. Fortunately, there was a used RV Sales lot close by and Chief Long Hair bought approximately 500 Winnebago Recreational Vehicles with the wampum he had. So, a new era in Native American Indian history began, the Wango Tribe actually became a migrational indian tribe. They got onto I-70 West and headed for Nebraska Territory. When the Wangos finally made to Northeast Nebraska several days later, they settled on Fejfar land, illegally. At this point, Anton Fejfar, United States Marshall stopped to visit with Chief Long Hair. "Well,' said Marshall Fejfar, "I guess we'll let you stay on this land of ours for awhile so that you can't claim Adverse Possession. But, I suppose that well have to call you the Winnebago Tribe, named after those fancy RVs of yours." Thus, the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska was born, and you can still see them squatting on Fejfar land in Northeast Nebraska to this day, on the so called, Winnebago Indian Reservation.

Fejfar Review of the Book "Flow"

The book, "Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience" (1990) by the author, Csikszentmihalyi is about the experience of spiritual satisfaction. Flow confirms Maslow's book, "Psychology of Being," where Maslow discusses the phenomenon of Self Actualization Experiences. Consistent with Flow, Maslow tells us that Self Actualization Experiences flow from the spiritual satisfaction found in working on, and completing, a self chosen, meaningful project. This follows Sartre's notion that an Existentialist Person, should choose his or her own project and then find meaning and satisfaction in workng on it. My only criticism is to suggest that Self Transcendence (Maslow and Lonergan) should be involved with a Flow Project. It is apparent that there are Higher Values, Ordinary Values, and then Base Values. If a Flow Project involves Higher Value or Ordinary Values, then that is a good project. However, it the Flow Project involves Base Values such as rape, murder, child abuse, etc., then the project chosen is not a good project, and does not really involve spiritual satisfaciton, or Flow.
