    Speaking of Tonto:

    When I started learning Spanish a couple of years ago, my biggest chuckle
    was learning that 'tonto' means 'stupid' and 'Que mo sabe' can be
    interpreted as 'He who knows a lot' So ... all my years of watching the
    'Lone Ranger' .. I was missing the joke!

    white skin: "OK stupid, go down the hill and see what is in those bushes"

    red skin: "Sure, he who knows everything, me go now"

    Hilarious, makes my day every time I think of it. (OK so it doesn't take
    much to amuse me)
