Well, no, I'm not really interested, I say. Can you deliver the NY Times? No, he says. Then he goes on to plan B. He's got some kind of competition going on with other paperboys. I say, no I don't want to subscribe. Then he asks if I want to make a donation! LOL! Even though I don't want what he's selling, I'm supposed to give this kid money. Too funny. In a sad sort of way.
