God I love people that damn the torpedoes and speak
their mind!
I was sitting with a close friend with a similar
mindset once at lunch and he spoke his mind!
He's a well know industry VP and a shmoozing ex
salesman of his came over at lunch to say hi and
introduced some clients that were with him. After
interrupting our lunch so he could show his clients
he know my friend he ended with the classic yuppie
line, "I'll call ya! Let's do lunch!"
To which my friend responded instantly, "No... don't
call me. I'm not interesting in having lunch with
you."
The guys clients even started laughing! He just
buried him right their in the restaurant.
Priceless!

For those who may take offense at a naughty word at
the end of the following
describing a lady who worked in the ' alleged '
oldest profession in the world

All those others who are curious - read on
THE BEST COMEBACK LINE for 2007...
For those that don't know him, Major General Peter
Cosgrove is an "Australian
treasure!"
General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio
recently. You'll love his reply
to the lady who
interviewed him concerning guns and children.
Regardless of how you feel about
gun laws
you gotta love this! This is one of the best comeback
lines of all time. It is
a portion of an ABC
interview between a female broadcaster and General
Cosgrove who was about to
sponsor a
Boy Scout Troop visiting his military headquarters.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to
teach these young boys when
they visit your base?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery
and shooting.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on
the rifle range.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous
activity to be teaching
children?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper
rifle discipline before they
even touch a firearm.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
But you're equipping them to become violent killers.
GENERAL COSGROVE:
Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but
you're not one, are you?
The radio went silent and the interview ended.
