Happy John Frum Day!
Every February 15th, followers of John Frum have a parade in celebration of the expected return of their cargo cult god. They're not sure what year he'll return, just that it'll be on February 15th. As one of them said to David Attenborough in the 50's: "If you can wait two thousand years for Jesus Christ to come an' 'e no come, then I can wait more than nineteen years for John."
So, every year they get out their bamboo rifles and march around military style, with "USA" and "TA" (for "Tanna Army") painted on their bodies. Here's an interesting video of the proceedings one year at the village of Lamakara at Sulfa Bay on the island of Tanna in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu.
Okay, time to head out to the makeshift control tower I built next to the driveway. Now where did I put my coconut shell headphones?
