FYI- HuffyPuffy has been obsoleted, Yeah

Just a courtesy note. HuffyPuffy name with cowboy smoking a cigar has been obsoleted.

I'm still here, but under new name and new avatar. It's been about a month since joined the forums and after commuting for several days, I don't think I will be huffing and puffing quite as much any more.

New name "HiYo Silver".

I found out the lyrics were "Hi Yo, silver" and not as I heard "Hi Ho silver."

Trivia:

Lone Ranger was broadcast from 1949 to 1957. Tonto was Jay Silverheels. Except for one replacement try, the Lone ranger was played by Clayton Moore.

Opening
"A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty hi-yo Silver. The Lone Ranger!"

Some intermissions
A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty "Hi Yo Silver!" The Lone Ranger. "Hi Yo Silver, away!" With his faithful Indian companion Tonto, the daring and resourceful masked rider of the plains, led the fight for law and order in the early west. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. The Lone Ranger rides again!

Ending
Be with The Lone Ranger and Tonto same time next week for new dangers in another thrill packed adventure. The Lone Ranger rides again!

Lone Ranger Creed
The Lone Ranger creed was written by the shows original writer Fran Striker. Here is what it says:

"I believe that to have a friend, a man must be
one. That all men are created equal and that everyone
has within himself the power to make this a better
world. That God put the firewood there but that every
man must gather and light it himself. In being
prepared physically, mentally and morally to fight when
necessary for that which is right. That a man should make
the most of what equipment he has. That 'This
government of the people, by the people and for the people'
shall live always. That men should live by the rule of
what is best for the greatest number.
That sooner or later...somewhere...somehow...we must settle
with the world and make payment for what we have
taken. That all things change but truth...and
that truth alone...lives on forever. In my
Creator...my country...and my
fellow man."


Interestingly I always thought it was "Hi Ho Silver". Now seeing the lyrics it is "Hi Yo", "silver", "away"
So instead of HiHo silver as some command, command sequence is:
Hiyo -- hey you stupid horse pay attention
Silver-- not blaze or flash, but you silver
away-- another name for giddup



Enjoy, see you again on the forums.

Hi yo [formerly known as Huff ]

[ yeah, I know we already have a lone ranger on the forums. ]
