Xopl, I actually remember that poem from an issue of Mad magazine about 20 years ago.

Waste of ammo is more like it. In that 45 seconds, they blew through $500 in shells.

Always nice to poop where you eat.

Hah. I called the IRS. Tax time, pseudo-functioning citizens!

heh eh; the little one doesn't get it...

My daily drivers are pre-1973 vehicles mainly because they're cool, but also because they're cheap and easy to fix and dirt cheap to insure. It's one of our driving culture's best kept secrets. Oh, and mileage? Comparable to most modern cars (and yes, that's shameful). One could argue that they pollute more, maybe, but I'll wager that the development and manufacture of the five to seven cars a single 30-year-old car could replace pollutes much more.

Thing about those motorheads--most of them don't have car payments.

I'll bet those guys can use tape measures like nobody's business.
