When the Lone Ranger Found Out
What Kemo Sabe Really Meant...

My dad used to love the one about Harry S Truman making a speech on an Indian Reservation:

--And we promise you lower taxes!

--Um Gawa!

--And more federal funds!

--Um Gawa!

--And a pony!

--Um Gawa! Um Gawa!

Truman turns to walk back to his train and the Chief says: Careful, big guy, don’t step in the Um Gawa.

Now the learned Mike Gillelund finds evidence that it’s pretty close to true.
