There's a lot of emotional talk about telemarketers these days. Of course, it is usually with great irritation and methods to avoid them. But generally speaking, I somewhat enjoy them. I like to hear how they try to sell me something that I don't want and try to counter my rejections.

Telemarketers are seldom successful here. But, I was accosted by one the other day that was more than a match for me. She was young and, by her speech, I assumed had red hair. She sold me 5 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies and very nearly talked me into 13!

I could also infer that she came from a two parent home where the dad wasn't too sharp, but the mom was an ace!
