Transcript

Ranger Bill, warrior of the woodland, struggling against extreme odds, traveling dangerous trails, showing rare courage in the face of disaster, in the air, on horseback, or in the screaming squad car. Ranger Bill, his mind alert, a ready smile,

Unswerving, loyal to his mission. And all this in exchange for the satisfaction and pride of a job well done. I'd sure like to know why I have to be a college graduate, just to ride horseback seven days a week.

Johnny, I don't mind your letting off steam, that's what wives are for. But I don't like you getting so discouraged with your job. You're a good Ranger. In fact, one of the best and I really get disturbed seeing you this way.

There he is. Oh, it's Stumpy! Oh, just hand there and look at me like I'm something from another planet. It's me, Stumpy Jenkins! You know the old grouch midquarters. Oh, it's so busy. Bye, my glad to see you, Stubby.
