Old Mac's Newest Plan
Another stroke of septuagenarian genius

My Friends:
I feared I wouldn't live to see
Gas prices fall because of me.
I've heard oil drilling does take time;
Too much for folks as old as I'm.

Then I remembered tires need air –
A fading mem'ry I should share.
But how'll you know tires have enough
Can you be sure they're up to snuff?

Perhaps a private tire gauge?
More brilliance from someone my age!
Oil drilling is no longer cool?
Who'd advocate that but a fool?

Forget about the deep blue sea.
Vote for a hero smart as me,
Who, even in captivity,
Knew tire gauges should be free.
