Day 117: Devil Duck

Day 118: “Name’s Stan, owner of Stan Starsky’s Auto Emporium down on the Beltway. The new 1977 model year cars are starting to roll in so we’ve got a great selection in the showroom and on the lot, Saturday hours, popcorn for the kids, and copies of Woman’s Day in the lounge so the missus will be comfortable while you and me, we talk business. My friend, come on down and I’ve got a 1974 Cadillac Coupe de Ville that just came in on trade, beautiful car, one of the finest automobiles to ever roll out of Detroit and trust me I’ve toured the factory! I’m only doing this for you because I like you—someone else walks in here and they don’t get this price—but I will knock $100, no, $115 off the price of this long black American car if you buy today. You’re not gonna beat that price. Look, Russ Mackleby and Ed Pritchard across town can’t beat that deal and you know it. This is YOUR automobile!!”
