You’d be amazed at how much I know about you. You are the person who finalized your mortgage on the day after the mortgage rates jump one percent. You are the person who is second to the last one they let into the theatre before they throw the rope across and say “that's all for now". You are the person who buys the last car off the assembly line before they make the modification on the part that goes bad two weeks after your warranty expires. You are the guy who arrives at the summer resort one day after the low winter rates have gone up. You’re the guy who drives into the service station one minute after the government has passed a ruling that the gas war must end, and prices go up again by ten percent....you’re the gent who buys hi-fi a week before they announce stereo....you’re the girl who finally decided to buy a three lens turret movie camera....and a week later the zoom lens becomes available....you’re the boy who buys the hard-back $6.50 bestseller, only to find it came out in 50 cent paper-back the same day...you are the lady who has her car wash ten minutes before the rains come....you are the guy who gets the ONLY piece of cloth with a flaw in it for your hundred dollar suit....you are the individual whose favorite magazine is six days late....so you go out and buy it, then go home to find it has finally arrived....and you are the poor chap who dies three days after your insurance premium became due. But, despite all your troubles, you are thankful that you live in a land where you never need to fear that you will starve or be thrown into a concentration camp or be told where and how you will live. Unless you are a bit stubborn about filing your income tax!
