Present
A couple had been debating buying a vehicle for weeks. He
wanted a truck. She wanted a fast little sports-like car so
she could zip through traffic around town.

He would probably have settled on any beat up old truck, but
everything she seemed to like was way out of their price
range.

"Look!" she said "I want something that goes from 0 to 200 in
just a few seconds. Nothing else will do. My birthday is
coming up so surprise me!"

He did just that.
For her birthday, he bought her a brand new bathroom scale.

Nobody has seen or heard from him since.
