Yeah. My Mom and Dad would sometimes get kinda 'sticky' with each other because sometimes Mom wouldn't always think Dad was funny. I asked about that a couple times and my Dad would tell me that the Lakota din't always see things the Oneida way.
'Course, there were also a lot of times when my Mom just DIN'T think it was FUNNY.
Those particular times never needed explanation...........
