A doctor goes out and buys the best car on the market, a brand new Ferrari
GTO 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 at a red light. An old man on a Moped,
looking about 100 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 doctor replies, "A Ferrari GTO. 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 doctor
proudly.

The Moped driver asks, "Mind if I take a look inside?"

"No problem," replies the doctor.

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 doctor decides to show the old man just
what his car can do. He floors it, and within 30 seconds, the speedometer
reads 160 mph. Suddenly, 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 WHHHOOOOOOSSSSSHHH!

Something whips by him going much faster! "What on earth could be going
faster than my Ferrari?" the doctor 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 more gas and passes the moped at
275 mph.

WHOOOOOOOSHHHHH! 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 his old 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
end. The doctor stops and jumps out and unbelievably the old man is still
alive. He runs up to the mangled old man and says, "Oh My Gosh! Is there
anything I can do for you?"

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