read this with an open mind

This joke is better told than read.
So be sure to move your lips while you read it.

My story takes place back in the old wild west in a little
village on the north side of the Mexican border.  This village
had a bank, and of course, one day this bank got robbed.
So they called in a ranger, and before you could blink, the
ranger had brought in a suspect.  Unfortunately the suspect
didn't speak a speck of english, and the ranger didn't speak
any spanish.  So the ranger found a wise old man in the village
who spoke both, and got him to translate.  The following is a
transcript of their conversation, with the spanish parts enclosed
in brackets so you can tell.
"Ask him what his name is"
<THE NAME KNOW YOUR RANGER TO WANTS IS WHAT>
<JOSE>
"He says his name is Jose"
"Did he rob the bank?"
<DID THE YOU ROB BANK?>
<SI, I ROBBED THE BANK>
"He says that he did"
"Where did he hide the money?"
<WHERE HIDE THE DID MONEY? YOU>
<OH, I NOT THAT! YOU TELL WILL>
"He says that he will not tell you"
At this point the ranger pulls out the biggest gun you have ever
seen and puts the barrel between the suspect's eyes and says:
"Tell him I will blow his brains out if he doesn't tell me"
<THE NOT BRAINS WITH SEPARATE YOUR DO YOU RANGER GUN TELL HEAD HE WILL IF SAYS FROM THIS HIM>
The poor suspect looks down the barrel of the gun and says:
<OK, ROCK QUARRY I BIG AT UNDER THE MONEY HID>
"Mister ranger, he says he is not afraid to die".
