The world's greatest salesman was determined to make Pepsi as big a name as Coke. He went all over the world promoting and selling Pepsi with great success, but still hadn't achieved his goal. So, finally, he decided he would have to go where Coke wasn't even sold to promote Pepsi.
He disappeared into the darkest jungles of Africa and sent back word of his great successes in converting the people of the jungle to Pepsi.
Then, one day, the management of Pepsi failed to hear from him and grew concerned. More days passed and finally the days grew into weeks and months. At last, they determined that they owed the world's greatest salesman at least the dignity of a search party to discover what happened to him.
So the search party spent months deep in the jungle, delighted to see that Pepsi was being used widely but concerned because each tribe to whom they inquired of the departed salesman just pointed them deeper into the jungle.
Finally, they came upon a tribe who told them they could explain the whereabouts of the great salesman. He was very persuasive they said. So persuasive that they invited him for dinner one day and he accepted. Pepsi, he told them, would go good with any food, so they ate most of him for dinner and he was right.
"Most of him?", asked the search party, hoping they could perhaps at least take a bone home for a proper and honored burial. "Oh, yes," answered the tribal chief, "all of him except for that thing between his legs."
"And that thing," asked the leader of the search party, "Do you still have it?"
"Of course we do," answered the tribal chief, "the thing has been smoked, dried and preserved. We are waiting for the salesman from Coca-Cola to call."
"And why is that?" asked the leader of the search party.
"Because, don't you know that things go better with Coke?" replied the tribal chief in astonishment.
I’m upset.
You made me laugh. I’m going to lose my reputation for not having a sense of humor if you keep posting things like that.
Heh; hadn’t heard that one before. It gave me a chuckle, nonetheless...
