Cowboy X
Voice: In the early days of the West, the peaceful town of Sniddler's Gulch was threatened by one of the meanest desparados of all time, Cowboy X, a man who left his mark everywhere!

(Cowboy X comes riding into town with a branding iron in one hand marked with the letter X.)

Frightened Looking Man: It's Cowboy X!

Cowboy X: Letter X! Letter X! Yipee!!! (he stamps an X)

Voice: Cowboy X left X's everywhere - on the houses, on the streets, in the schoolhouse, X's on the horses, X's on the town hall, even on the good citizens of Sniddler's Gulch themselves!

Cowboy X: (in the distance) X! X! Yipeeee!

(Rides off, leaving a trail of X's)

Voice: The citizens finally decided that Cowboy X had to be stopped.

(Crowd noises)

Man 1: Throw him in jail!

Man 2: Run him out of town!

Little Boy: (crowd dies down) Wait, what if we just ASK Cowboy X to please stop marking up our town with X's?


Man 3: The kid's got an idea!

Man 4: It's so crazy it might work.

Woman: Here comes Cowboy X now.

Cowboy X: X! Woohoo! X! Yiiiiiipee -- X!

(Cowboy X screeches his horse to a halt and stamps an X on the boy's hat.)

Little Boy: Cowboy X, would you please stop marking X's all over our town?

Cowboy X: Why, sure ah'll stop! (laughs)

Town: Aaaaahhhhh!

Cowboy X: From now on, ah'll be known as Cowboy O! (horse neighs) Yiiiipeeeee!!!

(Rides off, leaving O's all over the place.)

Voice: And the citizens of Sniddler's Gulch lived happily ever, because they really weren't very smart!
