Cool Coke ad in Arabia!!!!

Good Joke...

A disappointed salesman of Coca Cola returns from his Middle East
assignment.

A friend asked, "Why weren't you successful with the Arabs?"

The salesman explained, "When I got posted in the Middle East, I was
very confident that I will make a good sales pitch as Cola is virtually
unknown there. But, I had a problem -- I didn't know to speak Arabic.


So, I planned to convey the message through 3 posters...

First poster, a man crawling through the hot desert sand... totally
exhausted and panting. Second, the man is drinking our Cola and Third, our
man is now totally refreshed. Then these posters were pasted all over
the place"

"That should have worked," said the friend.

The salesman replied, "Well,not only did I not speak Arabic, I also
didn't realize that Arabs read from right to left..."
