Aromatic Sales Strategy of The Moment
Courtesy of Carleen
A new Publix Supermarket opened in Canton, Ga. It has an automatic water mister to keep the produce fresh. Just before it goes on, you hear the distant sound of thunder and the smell of fresh rain.

When you pass the milk cases, you hear cows mooing and you experience the scent of fresh cut hay.

In the meat department there is the aroma of charcoal grilled steaks and brauts.

In the liquor department, the fresh, clean, crisp smell of tapped Miller Lite.

When you approach the egg case, you hear hens cluck and cackle and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying.

The bread department features the tantalizing smell of fresh baked bread & cookies.

I don't buy toilet paper there anymore.
I am excited to announce that I will be at the 95.7 FM WZID Women’s Expo at the Radisson Hotel Expo Center in Manchester, NH from 10am-4pm on Saturday, February 19th with my dear friend and fellow Coach, Deirdre McEachern. They are expecting 2100 women; the largest women’s event in NH with over 120 exhibitors. Stop by and say hello! I’d love to see you!

JOB INTERVIEW OF THE MOMENT
HR Manager to job candidate: "I see you've had no computer training. Although that qualifies you for upper management, it means you're under-qualified for our entry level positions."
CEMETERY SERVICE OF THE MOMENT
When I was a young minister, a funeral director asked me to hold a graveside service for a homeless man with no family or friends. The funeral was to be at a new cemetery way out in the country and this man was the first to be laid to rest there.

I was not familiar with the area and became lost. I did not stop to ask for directions of course and I finally found the cemetery about an hour late. The back hoe was there and the crew was eating their lunch. The hearse was nowhere to be seen.

I apologized to the workers for being late. As I looked into the open grave, I saw the vault lid already in place. I told the workers I would not keep them long, but that this was the proper thing to do. The workers, still eating their lunch, gathered around the opening.

I was young and enthusiastic and poured out my heart and soul as I preached. The workers joined in with, "Praise the Lord," "Amen," and "Glory!" I got so into the service that I preached and preached and preached, from Genesis to The Revelation. When the service was over, I said a prayer and walked to my vehicle.

As I opened the car door, I heard one of the workers say to the other guys, "I never saw anything like that before and I've been putting in septic systems for twenty years!"

QUESTIONABLE VALENTINE GIFT OF THE MOMENT
Jim asked his friend, Tony, whether he had bought his wife anything for Valentine's Day.

"Yes", came the answer from Tony who was a bit of a chauvinist, "I've bought her a belt and a bag."

"That was very kind of you," Jim added, "I hope she appreciated the thought."

Tony smiled as he replied, "So do I, and hopefully the vacuum cleaner will work better now."
TOO MUCH TV FOR THE MOMENT
The math teacher saw that little Johnny wasn't paying attention in class. She called on him and said, "Johnny! What are 2 and 4 and 28 and 44?"

Little Johnny quickly replied, "NBC, CBS, HBO and the Cartoon Network!"
THE GOOD, BAD & UGLY MOMENT
Good: You give the "birds and bees" talk to your daughter.
Bad: She keeps interrupting.
Ugly: With corrections.
