Welcome to In The Hoop, Indianz.Com's occasional column about assorted Indian issues.

The First Annual In The Hoop Reader Appreciation Survey
It's time for the second installment of our First Annual In The Hoop Reader Appreciation Survey!

We've received an overwhelming response to yesterday's survey, and you can still send in your answers to that one. Don't forget to submit your own questions to win your very own AllNative.Com / Indianz.Com prize that we guarantee the state of Kansas won't seize and force you to pay taxes on...

Your Views on Trust Reform
I think the Individual Indian Money (IIM) trust would best be handled by:
A Court-Appointed Receiver
New England Patriots Wide Receiver Troy Brown
Inept Indian & Non-Indian Administrators / Officials, Just Like How It Is Now

I don't think a settlement to Cobell will make a difference because:
The Lawyers Will Get Most of the Money Anyway
There Is No Money Missing From the IIM Trust
Kevin Gover Said So

I am most frightened by the presence of:
Deputy Secretary J. Steven Griles
That Creepy Ross Swimmer
Special Monster Alan Balaran (For Department of Justice responders only)

If I Had $250 an hour to spare, I would ask the court monitor to investigate:
My Husband / Wife / Significant Other
That Snagg I Met At Schemitzun / Gathering / Navajo Nation Fair
Michael Anderson

More Stuff About Me
I am closest in campaign contributions to:
Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians ($)
Seminole Tribe of Florida ($$)
Mississippi Band of Choctaws ($$$)

I am closest in body shape to:
Miss Indian World
A drum group
A Kiowa drum group

I am closest in health to:
Pre-Colombian Levels
Pre-I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Levels
Health? What's That?
