The Language Market
Real Estate or
a Wondrous Sense of Wonder
(+ Entitlement?)
Just Propulsive, Really
Cliff and Marie bought
the Chalet Model.
Actually, not much bigger
than their old studio apartment.
"I'm wondering where we'll put
all our shit," wondered she.
"Toss half. Any half."
"Why do they call it that?"

Marketing
“Look! We got the old farts thoroughly confused.
This plan and that, this or that deductible.
Now we’re following through with a thumping
brochure to every one of them! Very colorful,
plus newspapers and TV, and, of course,
a continuous flow of crap on the internet.
We’re gonna win most of these dithering
prospects, but it’s debatable whether all
the tons of advertising helps or hurts us.
It’s the guys and girls we got to close the deal
gives us the edge. Many have been ministers
or priests or rabbis, so they know how to appear
gentle and thoughtful while shoveling the shit.”
