Girl on the Beach

Most of you know we live very near the beach. And, we do like to walk the beach, a lot.
The weather's been kind of nice lately, and a lot of "early" sun bunnies can be found laying out.

Well, just recently, we noticed a girl who was at the beach almost every day. She wasn't unusual, nor was the travel bag she carried, except for one thing; she would approach people who were sitting on the beach, glance around and then speak to them. Generally, the people would respond negatively and she would wander off. But occasionally someone would nod and there would be a quick exchange of money and something that she carried in her bag.

We assumed that she was selling drugs and debated calling the cops, but since we didn't know for sure, we decided to just continue watching her.. After a couple of weeks my wife said, 'Honey, have you ever noticed that she only goes up to people with boom boxes and other electronic devices?' I hadn't and said so. Then she said, 'Tomorrow I want you to get a towel and our big radio and go lie out on the beach. Then we can find out what she's really doing.' Well, the plan went off without a hitch and my wife was almost hopping up and down with anticipation when she saw the girl talk to me and then leave.. I then walked up the beach and met my wife at the road.

'Well, is she selling drugs?' she asked excitedly. 'No, she's not,' I said, enjoying this probably more than I should have. 'Well, what is it then? What does she do ?' my wife fairly shrieked. I grinned and said, 'She's a battery salesperson.' 'Batteries?' cried the wife. 'Yes!' I replied.
