Picking Up Girls Made Easy - The Women's Clothing Store Pick-Up

Narrated by the author, Eric Weber, this album was released in the mid-70's. Pure cheese and amazing that these pick-ups could actually work (well maybe on girls who are not playing with a full deck of cards). What's even more amazing is that this is still in print (no longer on LP, but on cassette!). Check out this search on Google.

This one had me laughing so loud at my desk that my coworkers had to share the experience. Comments from one coworker: "So you meet a girl who is shopping in a department store, who's willing to let strangers spend money on them; obviously, a very expensive girlfriend, and if you're not careful, a very expensive wife. The guy gets what he deserves!"

the eric weber thing is most interesting to me. while on a road trip with my rock band, we stopped at a used bookstore in cleveland where i purchased a copy of "how to pick up girls" for, oh, say 2 dollars. it really is quite a sign of the times; a little slice of the history of women's lib (as they used to call it, i believe). it gives complete instructions on how to stalk, lie and manipulate a woman into tawdry sex with losers. (now that cocaine is making a comeback these days, perhaps those techniques in this 70's book will apply anew) anyway, the creepy thing about the copy i bought is that not only was it signed, but several "key instructions" were underlined throughout each chapter. seeing that i bought is second hand, i can only assume it didn't work quite as well as the owner had intended...
