The gift that keeps on giving

I gave my nephew a knife and asked him if he knew what was inside his drum.

That snot nice.

Drumming up business…

Giving out baseballs would give greater plausible deniability.

Oh no, not Bubba’s windshield!!!

Like a dentist handing out candy.

Job security at it’s best. But to make the ‘circle-of-life’ complete, there’s a lawyer filming him.

Playing both sides of the street….

Brilliant marketing! And, on another note, Bleeb looks huge!

Bleeb Get away from the window !!!

In the 70’s my friends dad said he had job security. He designed missiles which could not be shot down, and then devices that could shoot them down

I wonder how far Bleeb would fly?

A bit extreme, but I’ve heard of places selling tires and hubcaps that made local potholes bigger.

I guess that’s one way to drum up business.

Don’t hit bleeb

Inspired by The Tramp and The Kid.

Funny, in old days, with easy one pane replacement. Not these new double pane argon has filled insulated windows.

After complete failures with the ‘tRump Bear’,, the ‘tRump Trout’, tRump sneakers and tRump Bible, tRump uses all he’s learned in campaigning in a new business. Create a catastrophe only he can fix.

reminds me of computer virus protection. they invent the reason of need.

Around the neighborhood he’s known as a real pane in the….

repair??… more like replacement!

Location. Location. Vocation.

I guess free glass breakers would be too obvious.

Bubba shot the Jukebox last night

Said it played a sad song

Made him cry

Bubba wasn’t sure if this scheme to drum up business would work, but he gave it a shot.

There’s a well-known evangelistic church that used to make its tracts with realistically drawn pictures. I found one that showed a man getting out of a car and leaving a tract next to the front door of a house. I used a pen and doctored it up to look like he was an exterminator stealthily sliding huge cockroaches under the door.

Contributing to the delinquency of minors. Book’im Danno.

Ah the cause AND solution

American business at its best … (worst ?).
