The design of the new car will be based on the popular Chevette ( Shove-it to owners). The name of the new car?? Toy-lette, of course! There was this terrible kid, who just wanted a bicycle real bad. He had heard about Jesus giving people things if they were good, so he sat down and wrote a letter: Dear Jesus: If I am good for one week, could you please send me a new bicyle please. Well, on the way to mail the letter, the boy realized that there was no way he could stay good for a whole week. So he ripped the letter up and went home. Going home, he saw all the other kids on new bicycles. He really wanted one! So, he decided that maybe if he was good for two days, he might get one. He wrote: Dear Jesus: If I am good for two days, please give me a new bike. Off he went to deliver the letter. Just when he got to the post office, he suddenly realized that he had never been good for more than a couple of hours, so obviously this scheme wasn't going to work. So once again he ripped up the letter. On the way home, the boy passes a church. He broke in, and stole a statue of the virgin Mary. Then he went home and wrote another letter: Dear Jesus: If you ever want to see your mother again .... Chris Retterath ( ..utcsrgv!chris )
