Arnold Jackson-lol Why would there be a roach problem in a PENTHOUSE on 5th Avenue?-lol Wouldn't this have made more sense on Good Times since they lived in the Projects? Why couldn't Arnold and Sam been selling COOKIES instead of Roach Spray?

You don't know roaches...much like your brother doesn't know abt what to put on a mouse trap. :lol:

Roaches have been around for 5 million years (or longer)...they will still be here when we are obliterated.

Roaches don't give a damn abt how dirty or how clean your house is. They will go ANYWHERE AND EVERYWHERE. I seen a documentary on the Discovery Channel that showed the finest restaurants and homes that had roach problems. It takes one female pregnant roach to lay over 300 eggs. If any establishment or home gets even one female pregnant roach, FORGET IT, YOU ARE SCREWED. Those bastards live in anything and THEY WILL TRAVEL. If someone happens to have roaches in their home and they go visit your home, WATCH OUT. They could be carrying a roach in their purse, their luggage or even in their pocket.

I still feel the product could have been something else-lol Damm, even Michael and J.J were selling Can Soda door to door not Roach Spray. And another about Roach Spray is that' a product that people are not waiting around for someone to knock on the door, if someone has a roach problem you better believe that they will Already HAVE roach spray-LOL_LOL

It is true that roaches go everywhere, but I see Solomon's point. In such a fancy building roaches I am sure are a few and far between.

You see, that was silly, because those people were rich. If they did have a roach problem, they would get an exterminator.

Very good point. Michael selling roach spray would make sense. However, for some reason, I think CBS was afraid to mention roaches on GT.

Just because the building is fancy and your neighbors are rich, Doesn't mean your neighbors are clean. Roaches go where ever food and dirt is.

Yeah, in that documentary that I mentioned before, the exterminator guy said, the only difference between a dirty house and a clean house as far as roaches are concerned is you have a CLEAN ROACH AND A DIRTY ROACH.
Besides, Arnold was a poor kid at one time, he wouldn't know abt exterminators. What kid would?

Also, when did Michael Evans sell soda door to door on Good Times?

I can see Michael selling spray in the ghetto from door to door. All the proceeds would go to helpin' the black community, the black panthers and to fund his education in law.:lol:

His opposing point for not selling spray would be that black is beautiful in any way, shape, color, critter or insect form. :lol: For some reason, I can see him saying that.
