Will Old Coyote take a stand?

Many cultures have stories of the Trickster, and while to some it may be Crow, Raven, Fox, or even Rabbit, many people, especially the traditional peoples of California and the West, look to Coyote to fill that role. Coyote's had enough adventures to fill countless books with tales of error and redeption. His humorous mistakes tell an important story of how we shouldn't act in life, because who wants to hear stories about how we should act? Coyote is still telling these stories, but not many listen these days. Sometimes, he comes over in the morning asking for a cup of coffee, and in exchange, he tells me a story. Sometimes I write them down. Now he's nagging me to post a few of them, so you'll have to watch this weblog to see what happens....
