A Peck of Gold: Calling All Geniuses

Calling All Geniuses

Since nobody has ever asked me to join a "think tank", I'm considering starting my own. We could just sit around, thinking up good ideas. Inventing things, brainstorming, puzzle solving, riddle making.

It must be quite a prestigious position. When someone asks you what you do, you nonchalantly answer, "Oh, I'm a member of a think tank." Smarty pants.

We have several openings to fill here: Crazy Mathmatician, Idiot Savante, Mad Scientist, Paranoid Computer Hacker, and the Sexy Weapons Expert. (okay, so maybe we don't need the weapons expert, but it gives the team a little pizazz, don't you think?)

Now I just have to come up with a good name. Wait! That will be the think tank's first assignment. Perfect.

I'm already feeling my brain juices flow!

I really want to be in your think-tank. I used to get more offers to be in think-tanks, but I turned them down hoping for a better offer, but the offers stopped in coming in. I don't qualify for Crazy Mathmatician, Idiot Savante, Mad Scientist, Paranoid Computer Hacker, or the Sexy Weapons Expert, but if you need someone to do you banking, let me know.

i'm kind of a cross between a crazy mathemetician and mad scientist...

I've met the guy who was responsible for the idea that we know as Lunchables.

Christin, you are welcome to my think tank, but you'll need an identity of some sort. Work on that and get back to me. Troy, I want the Lunchables guy, too. Make that happen for me and I'll find a spot on the team for you. Josh, you need to focus your strengths into one identity. How about Crazy Scientist? Then we'll never know what you might genetically engineer. That's cool.

I can be the Ultimate Organizer. Do I come off too bossy? I can work on that.

Good work people. I think we're off to a brilliant start!
