A woman from New York was driving
through a remote

part of Arizona when her car broke down.
>>
An American Indian on horseback came along and offered
>>
her a ride to a nearby town.
>>
She climbed up behind him on the horse and they rode off.
>>
The ride was uneventful, except that every few minutes the
>>
Indian would let out a 'Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a' so loud that it
>>
echoed from the surrounding hills and canyon walls.
>>
When they arrived in town, he let her off at the local service
>>
station, yelled one final 'Ye-e-e-e-h-a-a-a-a!' and rode off.
>>
"What did you do to get that Indian so excited?" asked the
>>
service-station attendant.
>>
"Nothing," the woman answered "I merely sat behind
him on
>>
the horse, put my arms around his waist, and held onto the
>>
saddle horn so I wouldn't fall off."
>> "Lady," the attendant said,
"Indians don't use saddles." --------------------------------
