"Heavy On The Caffeine"

 


I had my first "Red Bull" today. Applause not necessary. We are now selling it at my employment venue.

Two dynamic salesmen made a presentation filling us in with all the particulars:

1) Made in Austria [ of all places ]

2) The founder is the only billionaire in Austria.

3) It's taste is similar to a Mountain Dew.

4) The founder drinks ten a day. [ not a recommended practice per one of the wild-eyed presenters ]

5) Our cost is $1.30 per bottle and we sell it for $3.49. A profit of $2.19 per each.

6) Some dumb-asses or brilliant innovative thinkers mix it with Jagermeister or wine.

7) Its main components are sugar and caffeine.

8) Red Bull is sweeping the nation.

9) Most of us in the room [ 15-20 or so ] had never partook of a can of Red Bull nectar.

10) The majority of us had a can, and I, yours truly, did get somewhat of a rush and/or buzz. But then I've got a cold and may just be suffering hallucinations.

11) The wild-eyed, energetic salesman left with nary a smattering of applause.

Red Bull. the next frontier? v.c.

P.S. Should have saved a can for tonite, as I limped home, bruised and battered after a long ordeal at H.W. II. [ for the uninitiated "Hell Whole Two" ] Selah
