Life Moves Fast Sometimes

The MopedAn elderly man on a Moped,looking about 100 years old,pulls up next to a doctor at a street light.The old man looks over at the sleek shiny carand 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 windowand 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 secondsthe 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 beand suddenlyWHOOOOSSSHHH !Something whips by him going much faster !"What on earth could be going faster than my Ferrari ?" the doctor asks himself.He presses harder on the acceleratorand takes theFerrari 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 gasand passes the Moped at 275 mph. He was feeling pretty good until he looked in his mirror and saw the old man gaining on him AGAIN !Astounded by the speed of this old guy,he floors the gas pedal and takes the Ferrariall the way up to 320 mph.Not ten seconds later, he sees the Mopedbearing down on him again!The Ferrari is flat out,and there's nothing he can do!Suddenly, the Moped plowsinto the back of his Ferrari,demolishing the rear end.The doctor stops and jumps out and unbelievablyThe old man is still alive.He runs up to the banged-up old guy and says,"I'm a doctor.... Is there anything I can do for you ?"The old man whispers, "Unhook my suspenders from your side view mirror ."
