Dale Carpenter has worked in academic, corporate, private, public, and special libraries and had sex in several of them. While in the defense industry, he was invited to join a select email group run by the IT Department. So almost daily for over 5 years he sent emails on current events, events from on that day in history, jokes and comments on individuals and their actions.

Not to mention going on the talk-show circuit and making it with floozy actresses backstage and with giggly stewardesses in airplane bathrooms. And you will want a small cut so you can make your liquor store owner richer. And make your Mazda pickup into a BIG-FOOT truck, right? p.s. but NO WAY are you guys going to be in the movie. not even in a crowd scene....
