If a guy's wife ran off with a tractor salesman, would he get a John Deere letter? |

Allow me to prove the power of logic, folks.
Nobody can logically prove the existence of God. Right?
However, I can logically prove that everybody believes in the existence of God — even the atheist!
Here's how.
We all know that atheists aren't afraid they'll be punished for doing bad things, because they don't believe in Hell. And since lying is a bad thing, they don't mind doing it.
Therefore, atheist are notorious liars.
Obviously, if you ask an atheist if he believes in God, he'll say NO. But since atheists are notorious liars, he obviously DOES believe in God!
It's simple logic, folks. I rest my case . . . _________________ ____________

I heard that a lovely blond went to a neurosurgeon and asked him if it was possible to transplant a brain into a healthy body. He told her that a new procedure had been perfected so that elderly people with failing organs could enjoy longer lives.
But he asked the young lady why she wanted to know about brain transplants. After all, she was both young and perfectly healthy.
The blond smiled, crossed her shapely legs, and said —

Here's a tip for keeping those pesky Halloween trick or treaters from coming to your house.
Answer your door naked.
Oh look, here come some more trick or treaters to the door and this time they're dressed as policemen. |

I love Westerns! And so did my Dad when I was growing up in the 50s and 60s!
But one thing about the Hollywood depiction of Native Americans I object to is the way they took the actual Indian names of the characters and translated them into English!
For example the real name of "Sitting Bull" is Lakota Tatanka Iyotake!
That's a beautiful name, and I resent the fact that Hollywood demeaned the Native Americans in those classic Westerns by making all the Indian characters have simplistic names like "Dark Cloud", and "Gray Wolf",and "Running Bear", and "Little White Dove" — who loved Running Bear, if you remember that highly sentimental (and popular) song from 1959!
And yes, guys . . . I still own the 45 rpm record.
Running Bear Little White Dove Lyrics (Johnny Preston)
___________
So, with that in mind, here's a few humorous suggestions for Hollywood "Indian" names which are no less ridiculous than the ones used in those classic Westerns.
_____________________________________________
Chief Sitting Bull and his lovely wife, Sitting Pretty, plus their son who never told the truth, Sitting Bullshit
Chief Crazy Horse and his brother Chief Sweating Horse
Two Cheyenne braves: Running Bear and his allergy-prone brother, Running Nose
Three Apache braves: Walking Stick, Hiking Trail, and Dancing Fool
Four Sue warriors: Leaping Lizard, Jumping Jacks, Prancing Deer, and Hopping Mad
Two tribal leather craftsmen: Tanning Hides and his brother, Tanning Bed
Two famous Medicine Men: Hacking Cough and Drooling Idiot _________________ ____________

I can't resist adding a few more humorous Indians names! I hope you guys will get a giggle out of this.
Big Hunting Moose – A brave who was so fond of moose meat that he practically decimated the moose population in the area.
Little Eager Beaver - An attractive young Indian maiden who’s very popular with the young braves.
Chief Straight Arrow – A sarcastic name for a beloved but elderly tribal leader whose failing eyesight preventing him being able to hit the broad side of a tee-pee.
Knocking Knees - A not-so-brave Brave who’s terrified when faced by the enemy.
Chief Lazy Horse – Brother of the famous Chief Crazy Horse . . . but considerably less ambitious! _________________ ____________
