Car Talk is celebrating its 20th Anniversary
with a special line of limited-edition,
classic Car Talk clothing, just in time for the holidays.
Your thoughts?
In commemoration of our 20th Anniversary, we're pleased to offer a variety of limited-edition Car Talk anniversary swag, including: a hooded sweatshirt, T-shirt, and coffee and travel mugs. Each item
features our classic Car Talk logo with one of our favorite designs of all time -- the famed greasy fingerprints of Tom and Ray.
 PLUS - With every order (while they last), we're throwing in a FREE Car Talk Plaza Parking Permit.*
Our Shameless Commerce Division also includes all our usual Car Talk clothing, books and a plethora of Best of Car Talk CDs, as well as our
popular Car Talk car tune
discs.
We encourage you to head over there, anytime... whatever your motivation.
Yours in honest shopping,
Maury Maille
Chief of Pedestrian Annoyance
Car Talk Plaza
*Note: We don't actually have a parking garage.

P.S. Here's this week's Lame Joke of the Week, from Connie Tucker:
A man and his wife are awakened at 3 o'clock in the morning by a loud pounding on the door. The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken
stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3 o'clock in the morning!"
He slams the door and returns to bed.
"Who was that?" asked his wife.
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers.
"Did you help him? " she asks.
"No, I did not. It is 3 o'clock in the morning, and it is pouring rain out there!"
"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Don't you remember, about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys helped us? I
think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself!"
The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain.
He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"
"Yes," comes back the answer.
"Do you still need a push?" calls out the husband.
Yes, please!" comes the reply from the dark.
"Where are you?" asks the husband.
The drunk replies, "Over here -- on the swing!"
