  I went to the Wisconsin State Fair yesterday and was intrigued by all of the crap you could by. Slicers and dicers, chamois mops, jewelery cleaner, ginsu knives, cookware, glass cleaner ... all items as seen on TV. I was maybe not so much intrigued by what was being sold, but by the salespeople. I cannot imagine being enthusiastic enough about a product to travel into city after city for 7 to 14 day long fair/festival and shilling ginsu knives for 13 hours every day.
It's a funny sociological phenomenon to watch these salespeople turn on the charm when someone looks in their general direction. But, I suppose it's a way to make a living. I have always wondered how much stuff these guys are actually able to sell?
