The Lone Ranger and Tonto walked into a bar and sat down to
drink a beer. After a few minutes, a big tall cowboy walked in and
said: -Who owns the big white horse outside? The Lone Ranger stood
up, hitched his gun belt, and said: -I do... Why? The cowboy
looked at the Lone Ranger and said: -I just thought you\'d like to
know that your horse is about dead! The Lone Ranger and Tonto
rushed outside and sure enough Silver was ready to die from heat
exhaustion. The Lone Ranger gave the horse water and soon Silver
was starting to feel a little better. The Lone Ranger turned to
Tonto and said: -Tonto, I want you to run around Silver and see if
you can create enough of a breeze to make him start to feel
better. Tonto said: -Sure, Kemosabe, - and started running in
circles around Silver. Not able to do anything else but wait, the
Lone Ranger returned to the bar to finish his drink. A few minutes
later, another cowboy struts into the bar and asks: -Who owns that
big white horse outside? The Lone Ranger stands again, and claims:
-I do, what\'s wrong with him this time? The cowboy looks him in
the eye and says: -Nothin'... but you left your Injun runnin'.
