What did we sell today?

Enough lumber for:

Approximately 200 canoe paddles

3 or 4 atylatyl darts (I used to know how to spell atylatyl when I was a kid)

2 planters

1 fireplace mantle

I’ve been trying to come up with an effective slogan for Garreson Lumber Company. We can’t afford to pay a high priced PR firm, so I thought I’d borrow the research done for other companies and try their slogans. For example:

Garreson Lumber—it’s the real thing

Or Garreson Lumber—a little dab’ll do ya

Garreson Lumber—alive with pleasure!

Got Garreson Lumber?

What would happen if the PR firm executive dropped the folder and had to quickly scoop it all back up just before a big presentation and the companies and slogans got mixed up?

Graves Funeral Home—For the Rest of your Life

Kevis Hair restorer—It’s the Real Thing!

Preparation H—It’s everywhere you want to be.

Crystal Cathedral—Try our convenient drive-thru window

Mary Kay Cosmetics—Manly, yes, but I like it too.

Otis Elevator or the U.S. General Parachute Co.—Good to the last drop.
