IT’S ALL IN HOW YOU PITCH IT!

All the kiddos filed into the classroom on Monday morning. They were all so darn excited.  You see, their weekend assignment was to sell something, then come back and tell the other kids about productive salesmanship.

First, lil’ prissy Sally led off. "Well, I sold Girl Scout cookies and I made $30", she boasted, while smilin’ at the teach, and then continued, “Yes, my total sales approach was to appeal to the customer's civil spirit and I credit that approach for my obvious success."  "Very good", said the teacher.

Next, Jenny, knowin’ she creamed “hot stuff” Sally stated, “Well, I sold magazines", she said, "I made $45 and I explained to everyone that magazines would keep them up on current events."  "Very good, Jenny", said the teacher.

Finally, it was Little Johnny's turn, and we’ve all heard about lil’ Johnny.  The teacher held her breath as Little Johnny walked to the front of the classroom and dumped a box, crammed full of cash, on the teacher's desk.  "There ya go teach!  I got two thousand and forty-seven bucks in that box!” he said as he pushed out his chest and kinda grinned at Sally and Jenny.

"$2,467!" cried the teacher, "What in the world were you selling?"

"Well, I was sellin’ toothbrushes", said Little Johnny.

"Toothbrushes, did you say toothbrushes?” echoed the teacher, "How in the world could you possibly sell enough toothbrushes to make that much money?"

“Gee teacher, it wasn’t that hard”, shouted lil’ Johnny, “I just went and found me the most busiest and crowdiness corner in town, and yep, then I set me up a this neat ol’ Dip & Chip stand and I started givin’ everybody, who walked by a free sample of my dip and chips and they all almost said the same things, like, “Hey, this tastes like dog crap!"  Then I would say, "It is dog crap. Ya wanna buy a toothbrush?”

“Yes mam,” lil’ Johnny boasted, “I just used the ol’ President Obama method of giving ya something crappy for free, then dressing it up so it looks good, and all the while tellin’ ya it's free and then making you pay to get the bad taste out of your mouth."  Then he finished with, “Now that’s productive salesmanship teach!”

Little Johnny got five stars for his efforts and will probably go on to be a young Congressman someday.

Thanks for the input Mrs. Bergonzoni! 

RECITATION: "I am very proud, that I pray to and worship our Judea/Christian, God Almighty. I am very proud to be an American, who loves all his family and all his fellow patriots. I will defend the original Constitutional. I will defend the rights and lives of patriots to the best of my ability and, if time and resources permit will even defend other Americans, who may fail to believe as I do, but I will never defend a Muslim, believer of the Quran! They are my ENEMY and I DO NOT recognize their beliefs in Islam to be a RELIGION, and I never will! Remember, be proud of, and promote, your beliefs! Be proud you're an American and promote that with pride! Be proud of your families and your fellow patriots and promote that with pride! And last, take some kind of real action and pray “everyday” for God to lead you correctly! Believe me.....this will lead to success.”” -- JOHN L SULAK ...and there you have some more opinions from me, Th' Dumb Ol' East Texas Boy. Take care out there, okay. IN GOD WE DO TRUST!
