"Individually, they're nothing, but when I curl them together like this into a single unit, they form a weapon that is terrible to behold." To which Linus replied, "Which channel do you want?" Then he looked at his own fingers and said, "Why can't you guys get organised like that?"

The Lone Ranger and Tonto were riding through a canyon together when suddenly there were Indian warriors on horses, dressed for battle up on the ridges both sides. The Lone Ranger looked one way, then the other, then turned to Tonto and asked, "What are we going to do?" Tonto said, "What you mean ‘we,' Whiteman?"
