Ok, so there's this guy with a b-b-b-bad s-s-s-stu-tu-tutter and he's finding it tough to get a job. He approaches his bible salesman uncle to see if he'll give him a break. His uncle doesnt hold too much hope but being family and all decides to give the kid a shot. First day on the job...
Uncle "here's a box of bibles, go door-to-door and come back once you've sold that lot"
Kid "o-o-o-ok u-u-u-uncle"
1/2 hour later... "u-u-u-u-ncle, I s-s-sold a-a-all th-th-the b-b-b-bibles"
The uncle is surprised, and gives him 4 boxes and sends him on his way...
1 hour later... "u-u-u-u-ncle, I s-s-sold a-a-all th-th-the b-b-b-bibles"
The uncle is amazed, this kid is better than the best salesmen so he sits him down...
Uncle "you're outselling all my best and most experienced salesmen, tell my your secret? whats your angle?"
Kid "my a-a-a-angle? w-w-w-what d-d-d-do y-y-you m-m-m-mean?"
"you know, your angle! what do you say to people to get them to buy all these bibles?"
"o-oh th-th-th-thats e-e-e-eas-s-s-sy, I kno-kno-knock o-o-o-on th-th-th-the d-d-d-door, a-a-a-and wh-wh-when th-th-they a-a-a-answer th-th-the d-d-d-door I I I s-s-s-say e-e-e-e-e-e-excus-s-s-s-s-m-m-m-me, d-d-d-do y-y-y-you w-w-w-want t-t-t-to b-b-b-buy a a a a b-b-b-bible o-o-o-or sh-sh-sh-should I I I I j-j-j-just r-r-r-r-read i-i-i-it t-t-to y-y-you?"
