[snip] Well ...... here's mine: Comparing You to Other Volkswagen Vanagon Owners Boy oh boy, Pete, you picked a vehicle which is just about perfect for you. Congratulations! For example, when compared to other people who own a Volkswagen Vanagon, you're just about the same in terms of your educational level, your tolerance for taking risks, and the extent to which you're a cheapskate. A *cheapskate*!! 8-) Anyone who can afford the maintenance bills on a Vanagon cannot possibly be a cheapskate!! But there are some psychographic and/or demographic measures on which you differ from other Volkswagen Vanagon owners. For example, you're a bit too young to be driving this vehicle, and you care a bit too much about your car compared to other Volkswagen Vanagon owners. I'm 32 years old, BTW. Car-O-Scope Makes Suggestions for More Compatible Vehicles Despite the fact that your personality profile pretty much matches that of Volkswagen Vanagon owners, Car-O-Scope would like to suggest some alternative vehicles--should you be thinking of making a change. Note: some of these suggestions might surprise you. But try to keep an open mind. It's quite possible that the car-o-scope has discovered some hidden and/or repressed aspects of your personality. 1. BMW 2002 yup! 2. Honda Passport nope! 3. BMW 328i nope! 4. Saab 9000CD yup! 5. Mercedes Benz 190 nope! Then follows paragraph after paragraph about why I should *really* be driving a Saab 9000 including it being "compatible in terms of [..] gender". Puh-leeze! So, let's look at your compatibility profile vis-a-vis the Saab 9000CD. If you dumped that Volkswagen Vanagon and got yourself a Saab 9000CD, you'd be a lot happier.
... and so on! Fun, but waaay off! >PerL >87 Syncro 112i Pete C -- Peter Cassidy, pcassidy@apple.com Sr. Test Dev. Engineer (916) 394-5302 - phone Sacramento Operations Center (916) 815-0762 - pager Apple Computer Inc. |
