Do they sell that by the crock or by the bushel ? Sounds like a Presidential Candidate.
Hey Bruce, how's your book coming along ?

It is in English. Sounds like my Uni lecturer. He said exactly the same thing. Least I think he did.....

Need to learn what he said, will come in useful at presentations.

PS It's a new energy efficient Toaster.

Very s-l-o-w-l-y. I'll probably have it ready around the time PICs' are no longer popular - or
everything in it is totally outdated...;o}

Really, it's a spare time thing. Something I seem to have a lot less of than I did when
I first started it.

After seeing that one, I have to wonder.

Is there really such a thing as a "turbo incabulator"?

The script was almost the same, but obviously the second one wasn't real.
I was beleiving the Rockwell one though, till now.

I watched the first one years back when I worked for the state of Colorado. We laughed so
hard we had tears in our eyes when we watched it in our shop. Sounded just like some of
the lame-o sales picthes we would sometimes hear from salesmen at facility meetings that
weren't always 100% sure about the technical aspects of stuff they were trying to sell us.

That's the first time I've ever seen the second one, but it definitely sounds like there may
have been a little bit of collaboration between the two.
