Hey, they used my fake credit on Car Talk!
If you listen to NPR's Car Talk, you know that they end each show with a list of fake credits, like "Personal Hygiene Advisor from the Tokyo Office --Oh Takashawa" and
"Personal Makeup Artist -- Bud Tuggli" ...they have a thing on their site where you can submit your ideas. Had one that always came to mind when they read them off, so I sent it in a couple weeks ago, and just heard it included in the list. My submission? "Political Consultant -- Paul C. Wonk"

Groan...

7. I heard this AM
great job. I wrack my brain trying to come up with something but haven't so far. Their comedy routine is so terrible it is absolutely fantastic. I chuckle at the same old jokes week after week, month after month. My wife knows I'll be in the garage every Saturday morning from nine to ten.

And I can't change them without losing my little snapshot smiley, so there they are. Not mine. Not even my picture. A few folks around here might recall who belongs to that tattoo.
