Let's hope that some new reader to this thread doesn't PORE over our posts searching for improper intentions.

He/she may find a POEM or two, all written with the most proper intentions.

With great POMP we herein post
our many fictions, we might boast.
Now to delve into matters of the Lone Ranger
such as stories of his riding toward danger.

I wonder how many EMD poets manage to equal the achievement of Alexander POPE and make a comfortable living solely from their writing.

n5bb · 11 Nov 2011, 01:42 PM

The Lone Ranger could use a ROPE. But was he a cowboy poet -- could he handle iambic pentameter?

janusz · 11 Nov 2011, 06:24 PM

I HOPE so.

Tonto decided to HONE his poetry skills by studying the work of Alexander Pope.

David · 12 Nov 2011, 09:44 AM

Tonto has now gone but his poetry will live forever I am sure.

An intellectual is someone who hears the William Tell overture and doesn’t immediately wonder where Tonto GOES at the end of the piece.

janusz · 12 Nov 2011, 09:38 PM

An intellectual (aka egghead) cares more about current economic and political WOES than about the fate of Tonto, Lone Ranger &co.

Let's all look down at our TOES and wonder, "Could we fit those into the Long Ranger's boots or Tonto's moccasins and take their place?"
Clayton Moore's boots were size 9 - 9 1/2.

Do you really want us to do such a TEST?

The Lone Ranger and Tonto stopped in the desert for the night. After they got their camp 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 the 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, it's evident 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?"

Tonto is silent for a moment, then says, "Kemo Sabe, you dumber than buffalo chips. It means someone stole TENT."

David · 13 Nov 2011, 09:24 AM

Afterward, Tonto went to the mountains and gazed up at the magnificence of the universe.

I beg to differ about that premise -- that such wild WEST 1870's to 1880's characters would have discussed galaxies and planets in such a manner. The nature of the nebulae was hotly debated even through the 1920's and 1930's, when it finally became obvious that these fuzzy patches were galaxies containing huge numbers of stars at a very great distance, rather than gas clouds within our Milky Way galaxy. It took measurements at the Mount Wilson 100 inch telescope (which started operations in 1917) to eventually resolve these arguments.
