Indian builds small fire and stands up close. White man builds big fire and stands way back.

[Okanagan]

Indian builds small fire and stands up close. White man builds big fire and stands way back.

  I've always LOVED this saying, especially since we lived on a Rez for a dozen years or so.  My Indian friends built the biggest campfires I've ever seen except for a German fellow who lived in the Yukon, who may have tied them.  If you have ever seen those house size piles of wood logging debris, it was normal for Indian men I was hunting with to light the thing on fire.  We couldn't park a pick-up within 30 yards without blistering the paint.  Gasoline or diesel in large quantity was normal fire starting "kindling."

Another one that never got old was when we'd be hunting on a logging road and would come came across beer cans.  My faithful Indian companion, whoever he was that day, would squint his eyes, look carefully around as if alert to an ambush and say, "Indian sign."
