The Finer Things in Life

Rai, you've already been introduced to some of the finer things in life yet, you remain grounded and humble. One of those finer things is a luxury item that you see every day when we go to your Grandparents' home.
I'll give you some hints: It's metallic red. It's aerodynamic. It has a gauge that reads zero to 280. It's fast. It's Italian made. It's name rhymes with 'berarri'. You guessed it? Ferrari. No, wait... not that. It's a Bugatti!
What's a Bugatti, you may be thinking. Is it a Ferrari rip-off, the poor man's Ferrari perhaps? Well, no, although it may look like a Ferrari, it isn't made for driving. It's an espresso machine, but not just any espresso machine. This one's as good as they get.
Still, you saw the metallic red, the gauge, the chrome top and you couldn't resist. You hopped on, and waited for the engine to rev but all that came out was a bunch of steam.
Until we get that Ferrari, Rai, this is all you've got. Make the best of it!

  1. Unfortunately, Rai, you saw Bugatti and immediately must have thought it was the 2009 Veyron 16.4 Convertible Roadster with an MSRP sticker price of $1,990,064. Instead, little guy, you're sitting in the seat of a 2009 Bugatti Diva. Latte anyone?
