Albertian drivers born after
1975, they have 2.2 kids, 2.2 cars, 2.2 morgages, 2.2 wifes, 2.2 TV's, computers and cell phones and
masturbate 2.2 times a day and dream of

$100,000 a year drive a
10 year old
North American car, wear old
suits and sensible
shoes and their
wives have no idea
why.
3) Born to be Wild: The epic late
60's motorcycle song that was made
famous in the film
Easy Rider, was most favored by overweight, married, middle aged men who
dye what little hair they have left, still
fantasize about doing their grade four
teacher who would be about
80 years old now and deeply
dependant on depends and they still buy
Hot-Rod Car magazine and dream about that
special car that they will never be able to
afford.4) It's Only Rock and Roll: This 1960's
Rolling Stones chestnut which will one day be credited for paying for a
Heart and
Lung transplant for guitarist
Keith Richards is the favorite song of middle aged rocker

admiring their home dye job in the rear view mirror of their
15 year old North American Mini Van which is still not
paid for.
5) Drive My Car: This 1960's
Beatles ode to being rich, which may one day be credited to buying

D.I.N.K.S. (
double income no kids) who have
$400,000 dollar homes in the suburbs, have their
kitchens redone every
six months, are border line
alcoholic, as can be attested by their weekly curb side blue box
donations, they have enough
RRSP's to finance a small
Caribbian country but, still don't have enough to guaranteeing their
asses will be wiped throughout
eternity, they can't
remember the last
time they had sex with their
spouse and their cars
always arrive by
boat.
6) Free Falling: Tom Petty's
1980's, the only other song to breech the
80's is a favorite of aging, pot smoking weekend rockers who hate

suburbs but, live in them, sing this song at the top of their
lungs until stuck at a light, hate they're
ex-wife but, live with somebody
elses and they lease.
7) Radar Love: Golden Earings
1970's ode to
'not getting any', because they're always talking about it, is most
favored by both senior and middle
management commuters who all married their
bosses sisters or daughters who will most likely
die heading for or moving away from the
dinner table and they own very
expensive vintage automobiles that is
either in the shop, in need of
going to the shop or broken down
somewhere along the road playing this
song.
