Posted by: 914 novice Feb 5 2005, 09:10 PM

I have it on good authority from a very unreliable source that a rumor has been started about a very prominent member of this board opening a porsche shop and that they are in negotiations for a reality show.Knowing this to be untrue I hearby declare my intention to apply for the title of:
Lovable shop idiot
I feel i would be perfect for this position for the following reasons
1)Overweight
2)momma's boy
3)sensative
4)numerous jobs taking out trash ,sweeping,and answering phones
5)very low motivation
6)I don't know squat about cars
7)I am available to travel to car shows etc.
8)you can take me fishing,golfing etc.(good for a laugh)
I was in the running for the mikey position on american chopper.
Have your people call my people,Paul (408)555-5555
Did I mention that my grandparents were very close cousins?could be a good angle for a show!

Here's how I picture it in my head:

Brad - foreman and self-apointed fund raiser - always having lunch with potential sponsors/benefactors
Mueller - shop machinist. Brad assigns Andy to always keep an eye on Mueller otherwise when nobody's around he starts swapping around the drivetrains of all the cars in the shop.
Andy - line mechanic. Does great work but Brad and Jon do their best to keep him out of sight of customers. Wine&Cheesers are frightened by the intense stare and bright colored mohawk.
Jon - mechanic, visionary, peacemaker. Keeps the other three from killing each other & keeps up the possitive attitude despite Brad's snide insults.
Jenny - shop book-keeper, scheduler, receptionist (because she's the only employee who can communicate with customers with a smile and good grammar.)

Special guest cameos (1st episode):
Craig Laughlin - picking up a GT1 he found on craiglist for $19,000.
Zois - popping in to show his latest bondo&rattlecan masterpiece, harrass the females, and belch at the camera

Special guest cameos (other episodes):
To be anounced.
