Road trip&AutoTrader = zero AUDI SIGHTING

[Horace K. Sawyer]

Okay, weirdness is setting in.  My little roadtrip to South Georgia, (you 
know the one where Bubba "rips the roof off prices")  well, in 700 miles I 
saw NOT one Audi.  And believe me I was looking.  Well, strike that.  I 
*did* see the alleged 200 20v on TV.  That doesn't count.  And a good part 
of the trip was I-75 through Atlanta!  Still, not the first Audi to be 
seen.  What's up with that?

Weirdness number two:  Yesterday I pick up an Auto Trader in a 
Texaco.  "Auto's Over $6,000."  I open to Audi.  Uh, hello, where are 
they?  None.  Zero, zilch.  Not even a category.  I look around -- am I in 
some sort of time warp?  Something is freaking weird.

Weirdness number three:  Today I go back to Texaco to get a cup of highly 
charged capomachino.  I check out the Auto Trader Rack.  All full, all 
brand new, just in.  Great!  I open to Audi, expecting to see some nice 
cars.  Hello again.  No Audi's.  This is ridiculous. I am disgusted.  Then 
I notice this pathetic little skinny mag called "European Import (isn't 
that redundant?) Trader."  Of course, I grab the thing and rip it open to 
'A.'  THERE they are!  Well fine and good, but Trader Pub. Co. has found a 
new way to make more deniro.  How many are they going to do?   I guess they 
will come up with a "Rice Trader" next   : )
