George Carlin, in one of his incredible displays of writing and oratory talent, delivers a superb monologue entitled the Modern Man, from his Life Is Worth Losing DVD. As I listened to him perform, it became clear to me that he easily could have been describing himself as a salesperson. Although there is much humor and sales banter to be enjoyed here, he often simultaneously speaks the truth. Perhaps he should have entitled this performance, Modern Salesman.
May we all speak so eloquently!

Dan, That was an amazing job by George to incorporate every marketing slogan known to man. How silly we have gotten with our "words of the hour" and what genius on Carlin's part to incorporate them all into a comedy routine that does indeed describe the modern man/salesperson. Thanks for sharing.

we may judge a man’s ability by three things :by what he has done (including the impression he has made on others ),by what he himself appears to believe he can do ,by our own dramatic imagination ,based on his immediate personality ,of what he might do. If these do not agree it is prudent to observe him further.
