IT'S GOOD TO KNOW HE STILL HAS IT.
Heros........we've all them. Maybe it is the bigger-than-life character on the silver screen or TV, or the neighbor who rescued your cat from a tree, or the public servant who lays his life on the line everyday for your protection, or the parent, (who, as a child could do no wrong), or the soldier passing through the airport coming home from Iraq. A hero can range from one being make-believe to one who is bigger than life in person.
Whatever or whoever you hero may be or has been, we have all succumed to hero worship. When a hero becomes just an everyday person or when your image of that person becomes a reality and you understand you had that person up on a pedastal, it can be a little shock to you and can be very eye-opening.
Well, as I said in a previous blog entry, western stars were my heros when I was younger. Gene Autry, the Cisco Kid, Roy Rogers, and others were my heros...I think if I couldhave returned to the wild west to have met such people in real life, I would have traveled back in time. Of course, one hero that I have not mentioned was The Lone Ranger. Visions of him in his black mask, with his silver guns blazing, sitting up on Silver, while Tonto stood at his side, triggers some mighty fine hero worship. He was the epitome of good over evil, the symbol for the true American way, the mold of justice for all and he could do no wrong.
Well I was glad to see by the above video on YouTube, that the Lone Ranger was still able to preserve his reputation as an American hero, even in years after he left the public eye. Look out bad guys and bullies, he still has it!! (Swoon), he is still my hero.
