And the Indian reservation guy replies, "What's this 'We', Kemosabe?"

"We're from the government and we're here to help."

I wonder how far back in time/history that phrase originates.

Something tells me the Indians have heard that line before. :)

When asked how many cartons of cigarettes he sells per month, Chief Wallace, a stocky man wearing two braids, denim shorts and flip-flops, responded, "It's none of your business."

Chief Wallace shrugged and lighted another cigarette. "If they're so bad, make them illegal," he said. "In the meantime, leave me alone."
