A young Aussie lad moved to London & went to Harrods looking for a job. The manager asked "Do you have any sales experience?" The young man answered "Yeah, I was a salesman back home." The manager liked the Aussie so he gave him the job. His first day on the job was challenging & busy, but he got through it. After the store was locked up, the manager came down & asked "OK, so how many sales did you make today?" The Aussie said "One." The manager groaned & continued "Just one? Our sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day. How much was the sale for?" ....... "124,237.64 pounds" The manager choked & exclaimed "124,237.64 POUNDS" What the hell did you sell him?" "Well, first I sold him a small fish hook, then a medium fish hook, & then I sold him a new fishing rod. Then I asked him where he was going fishing & he said down at the coast, so I told him he would need a boat, so we went down to the boat department & I sold him that twin-engined Power Cat. Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to car sales & I sold him the 4 x 4 Suzuki". The manager, incredulous, said "You mean to tell me....a guy came in here to buy a fish hook & you sold him a boat & 4x4?" "No, no, no...... he came in here to buy a box of tampons for his lady friend & I said......... 'Well, since your weekend's stuffed, you might as well go fishing." | ||

POTKB ...... good one! The mania for giving the Government power to meddle with the private affairs of cities or citizens is likely to cause endless trouble, through the rivaly of schools and creeds that are anxious to obtain official recognition, and there is great danger that our people will lose our independence of thought and action which is the cause of much of our greatness, and sink into the helplessness of the Frenchman or German who expects his government to feed him when hungry, clothe him when naked, to prescribe when his child may be born and when he may die, and, in fine, to regulate every act of humanity from the cradle to the tomb, including the manner in which he may seek future admission to paradise.
