Yep, that's why we used to call the sales rep of a large well known process controls company "Lying Larry" after he gave us some info that he was given by his corporate sales folks that was pure smoke and mirrors! And Lying Larry got the job after his predecessor screwed up so badly that he was fired and our corporate folks threatened to discontinue any further business with their company after his last major screw up! He was nicknamed "Sorry Sam" because of his propensity for saying "I'm so sorry" after his multiple screw ups. They gave reality to the old adage "How can you tell if a salesman is lying? His lips are moving".

God asked Adam, "What is wrong with you?" Adam said he didn't have anyone to talk to. God said that He was going to make Adam a companion and that it would be a woman. God said, "This person will gather food for you, cook for you, and when you discover clothing she'll wash it for you. She will always agree with everything you say. She will bear your children and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them. She will not nag you and will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you've had a disagreement. She will never have a headache and will freely give you love and passion whenever you need it." Adam asked God, "What will this woman cost?" God replied, "An arm and a leg." Then Adam asked, "What can I get for a rib?" The rest is history...

A little trivia:

In a past life, I was a staff programmer for Anderson Consulting, at the time a division of Arthur Anderson, the now-defunct company responsible for cooking the books for Enron and Worldcom.

I wasted that life writing general ledger programs in COBOL and CICS for large power tool manufacturers.

Anderson Consulting carries on today as Accenture.
