    • Quotes

      [the townspeople have offered the Lone Ranger anything he wants as a reward]

      The Lone Ranger: I'll tell you what. Anything? Give me that Indian over there.

      Street Sweeper: Who's that? Tonto?

      The Lone Ranger: Yes, Tonta! I want Tonta the Indian!

      Street Sweeper: What the hell you talkin' about? You can't have Tonto.

      The Lone Ranger: Bullshit! You made the deal, that's what I want. I want Tonta the Indian.

      Street Sweeper: You gonna get your "Tonta," buddy. His name ain't "Tonta," it's "Tonto." What the hell you want Tonto for?

      The Lone Ranger: To perform an unnatural act.

    Hilarious
    This short comic is outright hilarious. My brothers and I saw it once about 15 years ago and recorded it on a cassette and passed it out to everyone we knew. We haven't stopped laughing about it or watching it since. We just ordered it on disc and can't wait until it arrives. My best friend is gay and could not stop laughing through the entire show.We have gotten dozens and dozens of people hooked on this short cartoon. We are trying to find other short cartoons like this one. I can't seem to find any more by this particular comedian.If anyone knows of any, please let me know. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.
