Buying A Vehicle

A couple had been debating buying a vehicle for weeks.
He wanted a truck. She wanted a fast little sports-like car so she could zip through traffic around town.
He would probably have settled on any beat up old truck, but everything she seemed to like was way out of their price range.
"Look!" she said. "I want something that goes from 0 to 200 in just a few seconds. Nothing else will do. My birthday is coming up so surprise me!"
He did just that.
For her birthday, he bought her a brand new bathroom scale
Nobody has seen or heard from him since

This chap has a rather interesting argument against road rage. He writes:
I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut right in
front of a pickup truck, causing the driver to have to drive on to the
shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver enough that
he hung his arm out his window and gave the woman the finger....
"Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself. I ALWAYS smile nicely and
wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in traffic,
and here's why:
I drive 48 miles each way every day to work. That's 96 miles each day. Of
these, 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the bumper-to-bumper
is on an 8 lane highway.
There are 7 cars every 40 feet for 32 miles. That works out to be 982 cars
every mile, or 31,424 cars. Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not
bumper-to-bumper, I figure I pass at least another 4000 cars.
That brings the number to something like 36,000 cars that I pass every day.
Statistically, females drive half of these. That's 18,000 women drivers! In
any given group of females, 1 in 28 has PMS. That's 642.
According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life as dissatisfying or
unrewarding. That's 449. According to the National Institute of Health, 22%
of all females have seriously considered suicide or homicide. That's 98. And
34% describe men as their biggest problem. That's 33. According to the
National Rifle Association, 5% of all females carry weapons and this number
is increasing.
That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least one female that has
a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously
considered suicide or homicide, has PMS, and is armed.
Give her the finger ? I don't think so.

Put like that I`m going to very careful in future with women drivers.
