- This file is a memo from a salesperson who loves cliches. The text
- follows.
-
- Now, folks, I can tell that you're the salt of the earth, and you
- want a square deal and no beating around the bush. In this day and
- age it's a dog's life out there in the rat race every day, being a
- wage slave for the Almighty dollar. Believe me, folks, I know what
- it's like to have to rob Peter to pay Paul. And finding the right
- car to fill the bill can be like looking for a needle in a
- haystack. But you've come to the right place -- I'm your friend in
- need.
-
- Here's a beauty of a machine that'll be the apple of your eye.
- This is a modern classic. You could search the corners of the
- earth and not find a sweeter deal. You can't have a more reliable
- car for love or money. When you drive this off the lot, you'll
- feel glad to be alive, just like you're walking on air. Get in
- behind that wheel and stretch your legs. Isn't that like sitting
- in the lap of luxury? That should relieve the stress and strain of
- the rush-hour commute. You'll feel like a pig in clover driving
- this down the street.
-
- Quite frankly, this car is a steal. Mark my words, there's more
- than meets the eye in this baby. This is a car of no small value.
- I'll tell you in no uncertain terms, this is the deal of a
- lifetime. Now I wouldn't do this for the rank and file, and the
- fact of the matter is, it may be a rash act on my part. I may be
- putting myself right out of house and home, but believe it or not,
- I'm going to let you have this car for less than I paid for it. I
- guess I just have the milk of human kindness flowing in my veins
- today. You must lead a charmed life. But take it or leave it, now
- or never. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry in town will be beating down
- my door to get this car. It'll be a free-for-all when the word
- gets out, and this car will be gone in less than no time. Now
- that's the honest truth.
