Recently, I bought a new Lexus 350, but I had to return it to the dealer next day, because I couldn't get the radio to work.

To my surprise, the car salesman explained that the radio was voice activated, and demonstrated this brilliant feature.

"Nelson," the salesman called to the radio.

The radio then responded "Ricky or Willie?"

"Willie!" he called back and immediately the radio burst into "On
the Road Again".

Then the salesman called "Ray Charles," and in an instant "Georgia on My
Mind" immediately replaced the Willie Nelson song.

I drove away very happy, and for the next few days, every time I'd say,
"Beethoven," I'd have beautiful classical music for the afternoon.

And when I said "Beatles," I would hear a multitude of those great
songs from three decades.

It was really fun, and even my girlfriend got into it too.

Say "Billy Joel" and up came 'The Piano Man;" "Rolling Stones" and up came "Jumpin Jack Flash" plus many other great Stones hits.

But yesterday, I had the best experience of all.

An old ute tried to run a red light and I nearly creamed my new car, but
luckily I managed to swerve in time to avoid hitting them.

I immediately yelled in anger, "Arse holes!"

The radio burst into song...........







"Gooooooood old Collingwood for ever …………"

Damn, I just LOVE my new car!
