    went camping in the desert. After they got their tent all set up, both men fell sound asleep.

    Some hours later,Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, 'Kemo Sabe, look towards sky, what you see? '

    'The Lone Ranger replies, 'I see millions of stars.'

    'What that tell you?' asked Tonto.

    The Lone Ranger ponders for a minute then says,
    'Astronomically speaking, it tells me there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
    Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning. Theologically, the Lord
    is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What's it tell you, Tonto?'


    'You dumber than buffalo S""T. It means
    someone stole the tent.'

    Peary is right.

    I remember the old dubbed in Spanish version of the TV show at public broadcast where Ranger's side kick was called not "Tonto" (dummy), but rather "Toro" (bull). Batman was not gay either.

    That was PC in 1966.

    This is true. In real life Tonto's name was Simon Wasserstein. He once saved Lee Marvin from certain death on Iwo Jima and was awarded the CMOH. He then later diverted an asteriod from colliding with Earth thereby saving us all. He then went on to win Celebrity Jeopardy in 1989. I am happy to learn that kimosabe does NOT mean White man with silver peepee.

    always used to watch the good guy leap off the 2nd story balcony onto his faithful steed & clatter off after the bad guy...thought that would have startled horse to dump his A$$ on main street or jerked the hitchin post out unless ground tied...wonder if any ever joined the boys choir after a few inexact landings........
