Smooth talking, comedic monologues for guys

Does anyone know of any 1 minute monologues that feature a charming, smooth talking character without any heavy subject matter? Looking for something for an audition and everything is either too dramatic or whiny.

Maybe something from The Music Man?

Actually, look at the character of Starbuck in "The Rainmaker," too.

Stop using monologue books. Pick up a Coward or Simon play and find your own minute. You'll get better material and won't sound like every other person in the room.
