A Personal
Statement About Jana Mashonee From Ralph Thomas
As many of you know, Barbara and I have always been passionate
about Native Americans and Native American Culture and you have
often heard me remark that Barbara is the best looking woman
who is part Cherokee! Well folks we have developed a relationship
with the people at Miss Molly Records who has a rising star
that is a singer/songwriter and actress who is Native American
from the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina. Her name is Jana Mashonee.
Jana has had a successful singing career in the Indian Music
market and is now considered one of the top performers in that
market. She is now breaking out of the Indian Music Market and
going mainstream and we need your help and support to take Jana
all the way to the top and watch music history made. This will
be the first time in the history of music that a Native American
makes it all the way. Please come and join us in this exciting
trip to the stars by helping Jana. You can do that by stopping
in at her web site and buying her CDs and songs as well as join
her fan club and Facebook page. Come and join us in this great
journey because Jana my friends is going all the way to the
top! -Ralph

Private-Eye! Ralph Thomas's Second Home for Years!
There was a period in time when Barbara Thomas had to drive out
to the lake and talk
Ralph Thomas and his K-9 companion Checkers off the boat. Thomas set
the boat up as an office and
"worked" on it for a time. Sometimes he would be on-board
for weeks at a time.
