    Is this not just a joke? I mean, an actual joke, an attempt at humor. Read the whole thing and tell me Vinnie and Captain Willie aren't fictitious.

    Bottom of the 'article': All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

    Oh well, he now knows how I feel if he ever thinks about changing dealership colors and making them wear ties. I need to cut back on the caffeine.
