Proselytizing

And speaking of the previously used word 'proselytize'...
One day many years ago the door-bell rang and being a dumbass at the time I answered. I was met by a young, clean cut black man in black slacks, a white shirt and tie. I was in a terse mood and thinking he was a Jehovah's Witness I immediately blurt out, "I don't have time for proselytizing." His wide-eyed response was, "Man, I'm not trying to steal nothin'. I'm trying to sell magazines."
I almost bought a year's subscription to Time.
