Me & my Lotus-Joan Rivers pulling over "really expensive cars" on Rodeo Drive for TV

Friday, March 20, 2009

Apparently, Mark Burnett, executve producer of "Survivor" and "The Apprentice" has a new show with the slightly distasteful title of "How Did You Get So Rich?" (or something like that) starring Joan Rivers.

I'm driving my Lotus up Rodeo drive a few minutes ago and a blond woman steps into the street and says "Pull over here. Joan Rivers wants to ask you something..."

I said ok, and a man who says he is the writer of this new show says that Joan will ask me how I got so rich (since my Lotus Elise is obviously a VERY expensive car) and I should answer "I married a very rich woman!"

I say ok. They have me back the Lotus up and pull up again as they roll video.

Joan Rivers (Holy crap -- what a strange looking woman up close) sticks her head in my car and asks the question. I gave them the answer they wanted...

Then she leaves and they ask if they can shot my Lotus for video cutaways.

After I sign a waiver and I am about to leave, I see a new Ferrari 599 about to have his turn behind me.

Here is a video I found on TMZ of this Joan Rivers dog & pony show...which they called Joan Rivers -- Wanna See My Breasts?"

Yes ladies and gentlemen, we drive VERY VERY expensive cars here on Lotus Talk.

That's pretty funny. Only in LA, right ? But so, they told you what you should say ? That's wild. I shouldn't be that surprised, yet I'm surprised...

Yikes, Joan's upper lip is weird looking. Even more so than the rest of her face.

Congrats Larry on your 15 seconds of fame.

How did I get so Rich? ...with the ability to drive a Lotus Elise?

Well. I waited 4 years for a depreciation swing on the Lotus, then I went to a bank and got a Loan for a grand total of 26k! Then I bought the car used from a gentleman that was younger than I am! (he must have been rich too!) LOL

The payment is less than my wife's Minivan.
The insurance is less than my wife's Minivan.
The gas mileage is better than my wifes's Minivan.

They need to ask my wife who drives a 28k Minivan how SHE got so rich to drive such an expensive, and luxurious Minivan!

Seriously, this is the best thing about our Lotus cars. The Return on Fun is higher than the Investment! In a MAJOR way!

Hmm. I watched the clip only to see Larry's car.

Didn't even know Joan Rivers was still alive.

Hmmm.

Not for a Mark Burnett show! rotfl

Joan Rivers is a very scary woman. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh.

Awesome though! Aren't you glad you drove your Lotus that day? Think she would've stopped me in my Scion? HA HA!
