A Conversation for Making a Tepee Fire

A favorite saying:
"White man build big fire, sit way back. Indian build little fire, sit close."
(Yes, I know, Native American, but it loses some rhythm)
This seems particularly relevant in an age of SUV's, zillion inch televisions and "drive through" national parks.

Lyle Lovett's song "If I had a Boat":
"The masked man he was smart, got himself a Tonto,
Tonto did the dirty work for free.
But Tonto he was smarter, one day said Kimosabee,
Kiss my ass I bought a boat and I'm goin' out to sea."
(I heard that the first time on the car radio and almost fell out of the car.)
