Really really stupid 'college student' soliciting
Canibeyou made me a really cool sign a few years ago. It says "No Soliciting" and is right beside my front door at eye level. You can't miss it!
Thursday night around 8:30 the doorbell rings. It's a young man carrying a clipboard - the type you see for magazine sales. He starts his routine, "Hi I'm Andre. I'm a college student..." I cut him off there. I pointed at the sign and said, "Do you see this sign?" He looked at me and said, "Yes, but I don't smoke."   I told him that was SOLICITING - which means you are trying to sell me something. As I am closing the door he says, "But... it's for education!!"  Yep, he needs some too!!

Yeah , tis the season. There's a company that does a summer exchange program where college students travel to differet parts of the country and sell books to get real world experience. One of them stopped by my house on the fourth of July. I was less than pleased.
