import pickle

class person:
     name =""
     age = 0
     friends=[]
     comment=""""""

me = person()

# store
pf = file('/tmp/pickletest', 'w')
pickle.dump(me, pf)
pf.close()


# load
pf = file('/tmp/pickletest', 'r')
me2 = pickle.load(pf)
pf.close()

This is sequential access. If you want to have random access, look
for shelve.
