Farook Goes Green

When I met him, Farook drove a huge, gas-guzzling SUV, which enabled him to take shortcuts across the sands.

Recently, Farook was persuaded to go green by his teen-aged son.

Shortly after the son obtained his driver's license, he convinced Farook to loan him the SUV for a joy-ride with his teen-aged friends.

As I understand it, no one was injured, but the SUV was forced into permanent retirement.

After which, Farook's finances, impaired by university and wedding expenses, only ran to the purchase of a very small, fuel efficient replacement for the SUV.

If Farook is again convinced to loan his teen-aged son the small car, Farook may, like me, be reduced to public transport.

But I don't think that is likely to happen for the foreseeable future.
