Geoff: "Yeah, the Forty-Two Below win was a real gag, but I'm getting bored... have to think of something new... hard to choose really... it's all about the marketing, you know... I reckon I could sell anything..."
Other Guy (staring glazedly into the flame of the candle centrepiece): "Candles... what about candles... bet you couldn't make a business out of those!" (giggles tipsily)
Geoff: "Yeah, of course I could. It's all about the marketing. With a bit of managing shareholder expectations. Bit like walking a tightrope... hard to do, but once you've mastered it, it doesn't matter whether you're strung up between the washing line poles or the twin towers... well, sort of"
Other Guy: "Nah. Candles? Really? I mean, who buys candles?"
Geoff (mind begins working): "No it's dead easy... really......."
Other Guy (slapping a $50 bill on the table): "Okay, $50 says you can't get a business up and running selling candles"
Geoff: "How long have I got?"
Well, at least that's the only rationale I can come up with - and I reckon the underdressed models are all just a marketer's private joke... though someone should ask at the agm whether Geoff had to attend the photo shoot. :p
