Saw one of my favorite people in Chicago today. The guy on the corner selling, of all things, socks. I'd like to know what he pulls down a day. I mean I have never once in my life been driving down the road and thought to myself "Boy I really wish I had a new pair of socks right now." It's not exactly an impulse purchase.
The guy selling bottled water, genius. Candy bars, I bet he's doing ok. Flowers, you bet. Even the guy selling dish towels, I can see where that might be an impulse purchase on a hot day to mop your brow. But socks? Really?
I do admire the guys spirit though. At least he's out there trying to do something. And who knows maybe somebody forgot to put their socks on today and really needs a pair.
So here's to you Mr. Socks on the corner salesman. May you keep everyone's feet warm and dry.
