I have received an overwhelming amount of support for my campaign to be hired by Adult Swim, and yet some of you, and rightly so, have asked whether I am qualified or not. Here is my professional resume. This does not include all the production work that I have done, or my brief stint as an erection specialist ( I built big tents). You be the judge. Do I have what it takes?
