Something old, something new, something funny, and something you should buy!

Okay okay, I've never been a person to "sell" things. Heck, I was at Panera Bread for four years giving things to people that they were already coming in to get- food. I was very good at "suggesting" things for people to get. But at the bank, I fail.

-Do you want a check card?
-A what?
-A check card... yah know? The little golden card that looks like a credit...
-No! I don't need ANOTHER credit card.
(shoot)- Uh, it's not a credit ca-
-No thank you.
(double shoot) -K... thanks... for stopping... at.... Wells F-fargo. (the nervousness of the situation has set in).

Case in point.

BUT I sit here today being a salesperson to someone we all know and love. Jenny Kozicky. Now it has come to my complete and utter attention that our little miss "Dalia" has finally made her first CD!!! (WWOOOOO!!!!) I couldn't be more thrilled for her! I have to support my fellow lady in the arts. So I pulled out my card today and bought it! I can't wait to get it in the mail. My mom was even like, can I open it and listen to it? I thought, huh... why? And then she said she was probably going to buy it too. lol. YAY! So I must say that you should all buy her cd. It's like 12 bucks, which isn't a lot, and guys I mean... she went to highschool with us! (er... you...) We all know she is talented and deserves a shot. You don't even HAVE to listen to it, just buy it. She'd appreciate it.... and I'd smile at you and give you a hug. K? Sounds like a plan! And also if you buy it online through a website you'll get this hysterical little e-mail like I did:

Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves withsterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sureit was in the best possible condition before mailing.Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell overthe crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that moneycan buy.We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole partymarched down the street to the post office where the entire town ofPortland waved "Bon Voyage!" to your package, on its way to you, inour private CD Baby jet on this day, Tuesday, January 15th.I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did.Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year." We're allexhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!Thank you, thank you, thank you!Sigh...--Derek Sivers, president, CD Baby

Okay, I'm done selling for today! Love you all!
