Default A salesman tried the "puppy dog" on me yesterday...

Hi,

Real early in the morning I was channel surfing while drinking my first cup of the day and I saw an infomercial that gave a 1-800 that you could call and get a free tape.

Of course I called and talked to a rather good saleslady. She tried to get me to take the course they were selling, which was a multi-hundred dollar course, for a free 30-day trial. All I would have to pay was shipping. She heavily emphasized the risk-free aspects of this puppy dog, and how easy it would be to split the payments if I decided to keep it.

I said "Thanks, but I'll just take the tape if that's all right." It was a cute puppy dog, though.

Best,

- Boyd
