ridiculous money


People in this town have way too much money. Of course it's true of any large city. There will always be those with shit tons o cash to spend on whatever they please. Oh I wish I were one. Really I don't need to buy a 500K or 1 million $ car; I'd be happy with a $130,000 Porsche Turbo. 

I've seen so many nice cars lately. Over the summer I saw an Audi R8 twice in my neighborhood. The other day while at the race shop near the Lamborghini dealership we heard a V12 fly by. Surprisingly in Missoula I saw an Audi S5, and there are a few around town here. Two nights ago I was downtown near a club and quite a few $90K BMWs and Mercedes where getting parked. Just today I saw a 6 series BMW, a new M3, two Jaguar XKs, and a Ferrari F430. How many of those guys have actually been anywhere near the limit of their cars on the track do you think? Someday I'll be old, make silly money, be insensibley rich, and buy ridiculous toys. Till then I'll appreciate what I have. 

I remember lapping the track with a Ferrari 360 in my four banger although I'm sure he was a bit more timid than I. That was fun.
