Bumper Cars - May, 2001

Having a new boyfriend
is a lot like bumper cars

Both are shiny and fun looking

You spend a lot of time
struggling for position

Both are so attracted that they
nuzzle up and keep coming back
to each other

Every so often, they bump too hard
And run away from each other

To win the game, they have to learn
each other's movements

They have to learn to keep their sides together at all times

They have to coordinate their motions and work together

To bump all the other players away

Most players at bumper cars
Give up after only one try.
