    And he's a master at recycling, too, since that hair grease he's selling you came from the Texaco station! It is probably the same stuff they emptied from your car when you had the oil changed!

    So he's the one that started the Pet Rock craze. Now I know

    Leo's quite the salesman! Your second one reminds me of a long-ago Saturday Night Live sketch of Dan Akroyd selling some product. "It's a floor polish! It's a dessert topping!"

    Both good, Maria.
