The Lone Ranger & The Hippie Freaks
Won Over By Reality
By Tim Bayer
BRIGHTON New York—(Weekly Hubris)—2/4/2013—Last week, we went fishing with an cleaver bird. This week it is a human story.
Every once in a while we, the general public, get a glimpse behind the curtain of a politician, movie star, musician, athlete or some other celebrity. Just occasionally, the glimpse may bring (as well) truly boundless mirth. Jazz musician Dean Pratt sent me this YouTube clip of a revelatory “moment” involving Jay Thomas, The Lone Ranger (in full uniform, as per usual), Dave Letterman . . . and an annual holiday football challenge.

Tim Bayer, Webmaster, and Assistant Editor of Weekly Hubris, was born and brought up in Webster, New York. He attended St. Bonaventure University, earning a BS in Computer Science, and then worked in the hi-tech world. In 2002 he turned his creative energies to product development and video production with the release of his first independently produced products. When the demand for web site design and freelance writing increased, he once again switched skill sets . . . to writing and web work. An avid or, to be more accurate, rabid, disc golfer, he may often be found chasing plastic while in pursuit of the perfect round on a disc golf course, or designing and developing disc golf products for Demogrid.com. He says he tries to find the humor hidden in everyday experiences, because, “life is too important to be taken seriously.” (Author photo by Tim Bayer. Author Head Shot Augment: René Laanen.)
