If I were a betting man, I'd place my wager on Andrew. Only thing is, he doesn't live in Austin.

Seems perfeclty logical to me. For all those positions, each one probably already has the tools, so it's not costing them anything to perform the task. For instance, why would I pay a carpenter? Anybody can swing a hammer. My cousin has a hammer, and would hammer nails for me for free, so why should I pay a carpenter?

My favorite non-photo CL ad had been a woman wanting hair extensions glued to her head. The new one, which I saw in the Dallas listings last week, was a guy with one of those drive-around advertising trucks who wanted someone to fabricate a gigantic hot dog with bun and toppings so he could use it in his truck.
