My life is now complete at this moment 
i substitute zorro for the lone ranger....
I ask myself "What would The Real Duckie do in this situation?" whenever I get into a serious problem. And that usually gets me through the problem. Often times I have, as you suggest, pondered the situation from the perspective of the Lone Ranger after pondering it Duckie-style.
And strangely enough, Duckie's probably solution is usually quite similar to The Lone Ranger's solution.
For example, last week I was investigating some gang-related activity here in Halifax. In a situation quite similar to that experienced by the Ranger and Tonto in episode 86 "Ranger in Danger" I was tricked into falling into a trap laid by the gang members I was investigating - which left me stranded in a a sewer line, with no hope of climbing out (as the ladder had been cut away by the gangers).
Being thirty feet underground, and hip-deep in human waste, you can imagine that I was in a very precarious situation. So I asked myself: "What would Duckie do?" And then it hit me: I could use my lasso to hook the only remaining rung in the ladder the gangers removed - the very top one - and then climb up it, to freedom.
And then, just to be certain, I asked myself "What would the Lone Ranger do?" And the answer was the same!
So as you can see, both Duckie and The Lone Ranger have been positive influences on my life.

Silver & Lassie usually are always right, doggone for that horse instinct.
Ok, this just doesn't work for me.
A good example happened last week, when once again my neighborhood was overrun by the evil undead.(Being undead myself I normally wouldn't mind, but ever since I regained my soul I feel some small obligation to take action.)
The hordes were rampaging through the streets, eating brains and ripping limbs off my neighbors, when I asked myself "How would The Lone Ranger handle this?". Well, The Lone Ranger never encountered hordes of demonic undead! What was I to do? Fearing all was beyond hope, I jumped into my SUV and took off, ramming down zombies and demons by the score...when 3 hellhounds jumped onto the hood of my car. It gave me such a fright, I spun out of control, accidentally running over what looked to be an innocent bystander - who was in fact the evil mage controlling the hordes.
With his death, the hordes were sucked back into the pits of hell, and other than a few bumps, bruises and lawn fires everything returned to normal. Thank goodness for small miracles. :evil:

I think we should charge money from every member, from now on, to every post deadzombie has.
Whoever pays gets to log into DZ's own made topics, posts and threads with his replies. There is no way in the world I need to drive all the way to hollywood just to watch a 'good' stand up comedy, if i have it right here on my mere mac/mac clone.
:rock:
p.s. I'm re-reading dz's last post over and over and i simply laughing my ass off! no, its not " :bleh: " ass lick, but cause its truly
Clockwise... (Gasp) Oh my God. Clockwise is so cool. How is it going with all that sh## with Jim Drew. No PPC emulation for us huh!? Good to see you on the board!
Goku: That would only be fair, as I have to pay $9.99 for 3 of your episodes on DVD. After a few months the Z series is complete, and Ive just started moving on to your advertures in GT.
Can anyone believe how often this guy saves the world?
