Gene the Salesman

If you call Gene a "born salesman" you wouldn't be too far off the mark. As soon as he could walk and talk, he was wheeling and dealing. His classmates at Elfville Elementary recall his shrewd negotiating skills during lunchtime sandwich trading. Before opening Sorenson's Snowmobile Emporium 188 years ago, Gene sold refrigerators and air conditioning units. According to Gene, he comes from a long line of salesmen. As he is delighted to explain, his great-great-great-great grandfather was the one to sell the North Pole site to Santa himself. To this Santa simply replies, "Ho Ho Ho!" but won't say any more about it.
