A hip young man goes out and buys the best car
available: a brand new
Ferrari 550. It is also the most expensive car in the
world, and it costs
him
$500,000. He takes it out for a spin and stops for a
red
light.
An old man on a moped (about 75 years old) pulls up
next to him. The old
man
looks over at the sleek, shiny car and asks, "What
kind
of car ya'got there,
sonny?"
The young man replies, "A Ferrari 550. It cost half a
Million dollars!"
"That's a lot of money, "says the old man. "Why does
it
cost so much?"
"Because this car can do up to 320 miles an hour!"
states the young dude
proudly. The moped driver asks, "Mind if I take a look
inside?"

"No problem," replies the owner. So the old man pokes

his head in the
window
and looks around. Then sitting back on his moped, the
old man says, "That's
a
pretty
nice car, all right...but I'll stick with my moped!"
Just then the light changes so the guy decides to
show
the old man just
what his car can do. He floors it, and within 30
seconds
the speedometer
reads 160 mph. Sudd! enly, he notices a dot in his
rear view mirror. It 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
Ferrari?!"
the young man asks
himself. He floors the accelerator and takes the
Ferrari
up to 250 mph.
Then, up ahead of him, he sees that it's the old man
on
the moped.

Amazed that the moped could pass his Ferrari he gives

it some more gas and
passes the moped at 275 mph. Whoooooosh! He's feeling
pretty good until he
looks in his mirror and sees the old man gaining on
him
again. Astounded by
the speed of this ol! d guy he floors the
gas pedal and takes the Ferrari all the way up to 320
mph. Not ten seconds
later he sees the moped bearing down on him again. The

Ferrari is flat out
and there's nothing he can do.

Suddenly the moped plows into the back of his
Ferrari,
demolishing the
rear.
The young man jumps out, and unbelievably, the old man

is still alive!!!

He runs up to the mangled old man and, feeling
compassion, says, "Oh my
God! Is there anything I
can do for you?"

The old man whispers, "Unhook...my suspenders from
your
side-view mirror
