My Best Friend Madonna Hello, my name is Vinny and I sell cars in the City. Right now its not very pretty whats going on. I used to sell lots of big SUV's and gas guzzling cars; one time I sold an Escalade for $57,000 fully loaded and you can imagine my commisions. If you go far enough back consumers have bought homes for less than that amount. Today in this environmentally correct world lots of people want to buy Hybrids, and those things aren't cheap you know. College students of today have been properly indoctrinated to green up the planet, and many ride buses and trains and bicycles to serve that master. When gasoline hits five dollars a gallon I might buy one of those Italian Moto Guzzi's or a Vespa but the only problem with that is one of those big trucks hauling a million dollar load of gasoline might run me off the road or run over me, and my best friend Madonna wouldn't like that.

Sweet, funny and sad, isn't it. We are getting close to that $5.00 mark and I am looking at my bike (the pedal type). Good one, James. Alison |

there is no way in the world i could ride my bike now...way too much smoking cigs and being out of shape for so long it hurts to ride up to the corner. But yaknow, we poor people have to make due, if that means not buying food in order to get gas to go to work. |
