Don't you think my child has what it takes to become a star?  You should be able to see her talent, because she's bursting at the seams with it.  Right now she has four agents looking to sign her to a contract.  She saw eight other agents last month, but none of them signed her.  I wasn't sure that they were good enough to represent her.  I was going to tell them that if they called us back.  They never did.  It's their loss.  The agent that's interested in her right now is a very big wig in Hollywood.  He represents Michael Bolton, ah well, he used to represent Michael Bolton.  Not when he was big, but up until a couple of years ago.  Still, he has a lot of influence in Hollywood.
The agent I want to represent my daughter has to know how to market a triple threat.  A girl of all trades, like my daughter.  Did I tell you that my daughter was the lead at the Singing and Dancing workship she attends.  Last year she wasn't able to get any of the lead acts that are in the show.  Only those who pay a certain amount make it to the show.  This year I took a second job in order to pay that little extra so that my daughter could finally be a lead in the show.  Her specialty is singing, but she does it all.
I have a CD that I burned with all her greatest songs.  She wrote most of them.  The last couple of songs are covers, and the national anthem.  We send these CDs to agents.  Three months ago I was up all night putting together about fifty packets, with the CD and resume, to send to agents.  Now granted, it cost a lot of money to mail all those CDs, but it will be worth it when the agents start calling.  Oh, how many have called?  Just one at this point, but we expect the calls to come in soon.  You know how the mail is.  And an agent gets a lot of untalented people sending them stuff.  They have to wade through all that before they can get to the real talented people, like my daughter.  You know how things are.
Speaking of music, did I tell you that my daughter sung the National anthem at a game last year?  She did.  It was great.
I tell you, she could make a lot of money just from singing the national anthem at games.  The way she sings it is truly incredible.  I think she sings it better than Whitney Houston.  She hits the last note way better that Whitney ever could.  You should hear her.  Here, I'll give you a CD.

Don't miss this weekend's sale at my store.  Nearly all the stores at the mall will be celebrating Independence day, or is it Memorial day.  Maybe it's Labor day, or Martin Luther King day.  Whatever, it doesn't matter.  Holiday's are perfect for me.  Because people don't really care what the holiday is, they just want to know if I'm going to have a sale.  And, of course I will.  I know better than to not have a sale for Veteran's day.  Even though buying clothes hardly has anything to do with Veterans, and thinking about their sacrifice.  Hmm, now that I think about it... consumerism might actually be the opposite of sacrifice.  Oh well, I just sell clothes.  I don't go around telling people what they should do on these holidays.  If they want to buy a shirt for 50% off, on Martin Luther King day, who am I to say otherwise?
Who was Martin Luther King anyways?  Was he President?  I mean, they have Lincoln's birthday, and Washington's birthday on the same day.  How cool is it that two Presidents were born on the same day, all those years apart?  I guess there's something to be said for being born on that date.  Yet, Martin Luther King was born on a different date, and he was President.  So I guess there's still a chance that I might be President some day.
Memorial day always gets to me.  I'm not sure what we're remembering.  It's never talked about while I put up the 50% off signs.  Then again, I can't be watching the news when I have so many things to discount.  I told you that most of the store is going to be discounted about 50%.  Well, I say that, but the reality is that I only discounted the stuff just enough to get people in the door.  When I sell things at a regular price the item might be marked up 200%.  So, when I discount it I still make a nice bit of money on each sale.
The next big sale will be during Independence day.  Or is it Labor day?  Christmas, it's Christmas.  Yeah, now that's a big day for me.  I put up some nice decorations, and I'm ready for some sales.  Thank Jebus he was born.
