"Hey Billy Kahn... how's your construction business coming along?" "Not good, I think I need to do more promotional stuff." "How so?" "Well, just today, I'm walking past past this other company's construction site and there's this big sign out front that says 'This is a Webstrer/Furst job.'" "What's the big deal?" "They're my biggest competitor and they're giving themselves all this free publicity." "You could make your own sign." "Yeah, but I don't want to just equal them... I want to top them." "I got it... I can stand outside one of your construction sites and announce the same thing with a megaphone." "Okay, it's worth a try." SIX WEEKS LATER... "I don't get it Billy, we have no projects lined up after this." "I don't understand it either Fred." "This is a Kahn job. This is a Kahn job! This is a Kahn job! This is a Kahn job!"
