A self-important young man goes out and buys the best car available,
a Maclaren F1. It is one of the fastest and most expensive cars in
the world. He takes it out for a spin and, while doing so, stops at a red
light. An old man on a moped (both looking about 90 years old) pulls up next
to him.The old man looks over the sleek, shiny surface of the car and asks,
"What kind of car ya' got there, sonny? "The young man replies, "Maclaren F1". They cost $1000,000.""That's a lot of money," replies the old
man. "Why does it cost so much?" "Because this car can do up to 180 miles an
hour!" states the young man proudly. The moped driver asks, "Can I take a
look inside?""Sure," replies the owner.So the old man pokes his head in the
window and looks around. Leaning back on his moped, the old man says,
"That's a pretty nice car, all right!"Just then the light changes, so the
young guy decides to show the old man what his car can do. He floors it, and
within seconds the speedometer reads 120 MPH. Suddenly, he notices a dot
in his rear view mirror that seems to be getting closer! He slows down to
see what it could be and suddenly, whhhoooossshhh! Something whips by him,
going much faster!"What on earth could be going faster than my Maclaren" the young man asks himself. Then, ahead of him, he sees a dot
coming toward him. Whoooooosh! It goes by again, heading the opposite
direction! And, it almost looked like the old man on the moped! "Couldn't
be," thinks the guy. "How could a moped out run a Maclaren F1?"Again,
he sees a dot in his rear view mirror! Whooooosh-BLAMMM! It plows into the
back of his car. The young man jumps out. It is the old man!!! Of course,
the moped and the old man are hurting for certain.He runs up to the old man
and says, "You're hurt bad! Is there anything I can do for you?"The old man
groans and replies, "Yes. Unhook my suspenders from your side view mirror."
