    Default The Shopping Trolley

    My father is a skilled CPA, but is not great at self-promotion. So
    when an advertising company offered to put my father's business
    placard in the shopping trollies of a supermarket, my dad jumped at the
    chance.

    Fully a year went by before we got a call that could be
    traced to those placards.

    "Richard Larson, CPA?" the caller asked.

    "That's right," my father answered. "May I help you?"

    "Yes," the voice said. "One of your shopping trollies is in my yard and
    I want you to come and get it."
