I bought some cookies for the second time yesterday.  They were setup as
you leave the Publix store.  They use some unfair sales tactics though.
The store has boxes of cookies on the shelf, easy to walk by and ignore
them.  The GS use tough tactics you cannot ignore.

The Girl Scouts have some cute little girl accosts you as you leave,
look you straight in the eye and says, "would you like to buy some
cookies?"  What can a guy do?

They have a new flavor this year, Adventureful. It is a
chocolate/caramel thing.  It was OK, but not my favorite.  I do like the
Trefoil, they go sell with a cup of tea for an afternoon snack.

I'm eating a Samoas as I type this and boy, is my keyboard a mess -

Your best bet in dealing with this band of scam artists is to just
pretend that they don't even exist. I think this could become a thing in
the future.

John Kuth would tell yoose and ed to be careful. Yoose guys can buy
those girl's cookies, but yoose better not touch their Twinkies.

Yoose could end up in jail. Ed might get away with it, but yoose ain't
white, and yoose also asian, so yoose would get a life sentence.

  "... yoose better not touch their Twinkies ..."
  "Twinkies" = "snatch", Sire Hank...???

I've been known to refer to it as "little sweetness."
