Transcript:
Spike is sitting on a rock, staring into the sky and thinks to himself, "This is something I have finally learned..."<BR><BR> Now standing and facing a cactus he thinks, "Maybe it comes from living in the desert..."<BR><BR> Now laying back, resting against a rock he thinks, "Possessions can be a burden, did you know that?"<BR><BR> Continues... "There's more to life than owning things..."<BR><BR> Takes off his hat and thinks, "See this hat? It's a fishing hat... my dad gave it to me years ago..."<BR><BR> Raises his feet he thinks, "See these shoes? These are Mickey Mouse shoes... my friend, Mickey Mouse, gave them to me..."<BR><BR> Now standing he thinks, "This hat and these shoes are the only things I own..."<BR><BR> Stares up and thinks, "Rock?"<BR><BR> Sits beside the rock and thinks, "No, I don't even own this rock..."<BR><BR> Rests back on the rock and thinks, "I just lease it by the month..."<BR><BR>
At least the price of the lease is rock bottom!
