Maybe I Should Have Worn A Moustache



The owner first observed me carefully as I scanned the merchandise, drawing conclusions from my Saturday-morning bedhead and stubble, before asking: "May I help you?"

I explained I wanted technical assistance featuring great range and capability. Poker-faced, the owner explained maybe an investment of $15,000.00 might suffice.

Reconsidering, I said maybe I can relax the technical specifications a bit.

Hundreds of dollars maybe, the owner thought, but the requirements would have to be quite specific, and quite clear.

I left to think things through.
