The Puzzler

I'm Asking You Now!

RAY: The question she asked her husband was "Where are you?" because she was calling him on his cell phone! And you wouldn't have done that 20 or 30 years ago because you didn't have a cell phone back then.

TOM: Who are you kidding? You don't have a cell phone now!

RAY: So who's our winner?

TOM: The winner this week is Jimmy Werkman, from Glasgow, West Virginia. And for having his answer selected at random from the plethora of correct answers that we got, Jimmy is going to get a 26-dollar gift certificate to the Shameless Commerce Division at cartalk.com, with which he can purchase our Car Talk Plaza baseball cap. It's red and black with baseball script lettering and it's perfect for those bad hair days.

RAY: It's even better for those no hair days. Congratulations Jimmy!
