Little Johnny

[CaptJ]

The kids filed into class Monday morning. They were very excited. Their
weekend assignment was to sell something, then give a talk on productive
salesmanship.


Little Sally led off: "I sold girl scout cookies and I made $30," she said
proudly, "My 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.


Little Jenny was next: "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..


Eventually, it was Little Johnny's turn. The teacher held her breath ...
Little Johnny walked to the front of the classroom and dumped a box full of
cash on the teacher's desk. "$2,467," he said. "$2,467!" cried the
teacher, "What in the world were you selling" "Toothbrushes," said Little
Johnny. "Toothbrushes," echoed the teacher, "How could you possibly sell
enough tooth brushes to make that much money?" "I found the busiest corner
in town," said Little Johnny, "I set up a Chip & Dip stand, I gave everybody
who walked by a free sample." They all said the same thing, "Hey, this
tastes like dog sh1t!" Then I would say, "It is dog sh1t. Wanna buy a
toothbrush?" "I used the Obama governmental approach of giving you
something sh1ty that they say is good, and then making you pay to get the
sh1ty taste out of your mouth." The teacher was speechless
