Years ago, at the telecom break room, Pat entered to see that QVC was on the TV. Only one other person was in the room at the time, a middle-aged gal named Carol. She was a very kind, but introverted, lady. Though she often did watch QVC or HSN, she was contentedly reading a novel, not paying the idiot box any attention whatsoever. Therefore, Pat politely asked Carol, "Would you mind if I changed the channel?"
Carol looked a bit startled as she took her gaze off her book. After a brief thoughtful pause, she answered, "OK. No problem."
Pat put on ESPN, or something like that, and settled down for his break. Well, scarcely a minute later, Carol closed her book, got up to leave the room, and muttered, "...But I like jewelry!"
For the next 15 minutes, you can buy an attention span for only $13.99!!! Call in now, operators are standing by!
