The unthinkable has happened. Matt became an accountant this morning.
We’ve spent most of the day in one or more of the following states: denial, anger, bargaining, inebriation and depression. We expect to remain in one of those states until we are saved. We will not accept this. Accountants are not funny. Wonders are.
You never think something like this is going to happen to you or someone you love. But, now that you (the fan) have seen this type of tragedy first hand, you’re probably wondering what you can do. There is a simple way for you to help. If you currently have an “awareness” ribbon or bumper sticker, please take a minute to cross out “breast cancer”, “AIDS”, or “lupus” and replace it with “2HW”. If possible, please write “2HW Accounting Awareness”, our website address, the link to the Save a Wonder Foundation donation button and our home phone numbers. Thank you for your support.

They're trying to make me an accountant...Update 8...Letter to Jessica Simpson
Dear Jessica Simpson,
Your mom claims that your IQ is north of 160, which would make you intellectual equals with Einstein and Bill Gates. Smart people follow the lead of successful people and become successful themselves. You are not smart. You are a genius. You are not satisfied with merely following the lead of other stars. You outshine them.
Anyone could have played a Harvard Law student like Reese Witherspoon did in “Legally Blonde”. But, it took someone of your considerable talent to outsmart old Boss Hogg while wearing hot pants. Reese went on to portray Johnny Cash’s wife in such convincing fashion that she won an Academy Award. But, how easy was that? You’re much more willing to challenge yourself. You too chose to play a musician’s wife for your next role. And will have the Academy begging for more when they see your turn as Pamela Anderson’s character, CJ Parker, in the big screen adaptation of “Baywatch”.
Angelina Jolie is also an Oscar winner, but does not limit herself to excellence onscreen. You’re quoted as saying that she has done “amazing, amazing things”. Brad Pitt has said that too, and for the sake of argument, let’s assume that you were both talking about the two orphaned kids that Angelina adopted. But, anything she can do you can do better. Reports surfaced last week that you plan to buy a Mexican orphanage. Bravo! Why settle for two puppies when you can buy the whole pet store?
Angelina and I are in currently in talks (and by “talks” I mean I wrote a letter and hope that she reads it) to make her my foster parent. I urge you to continue your one upsmanship and adopt both Craig and me. If I don’t find a benefactor before April 24th, I will be forced to become an accountant. Like you, Craig and I have visited Mexican orphanages and would be happy to serve as translators for your kids. First lesson… “Capuchi” is Mexican for “put me up on your shoulders so that I can urinate on your neck”.
Thanks,
Matt of 2HW

They're trying to make me an accountant...Update 7...Letter to Angelina Jolie
Dear Angelina Jolie,
You have a Cambodian. You have an Ethiopian. What would I have to do to talk you into adding a half-Norwegian to your collection?
Your little boy Maddox was adopted from a Cambodian orphanage. That was a cute story while it lasted, but you took adoption club up a notch with your next acquisition. What could be cuter than an Ethiopian orphan whose mother died of AIDS? Topping that with adoption number three will be expected, but seriously what could be sadder than that? I’ll tell you what. A 236-pound, 34 year old, white male asking stars to save him from becoming an accountant.
But, hear me out. I may not be the traditional charity case, but what if I told you adopting me would be funny? If you’re still not convinced, I’d be willing to settle for a foster parent relationship. I’ll only call myself Matt Jolie-Pitt and accept support checks from you until I get my writing career up and running.
Thanks Mom,
Matt

They're trying to make me an accountant...update 6...Craigslist Ad Seeking Musical Talent
With 10 days left, I have decided to use Craigslist once again. This time I posted a need for muscial talent to do a Set Matt Free benefit album. The contents of the post are detailed below.
Dear Music Industry,
Remember when we were the world? We were the children! Twenty years ago, before Michael Jackson turned into a weird white woman, “We are the World” raised over $60 million for hungry Africans. Some of music’s biggest names and Huey Lewis came together to record this heart-warming song.
Today, there’s an opportunity for you to be involved in a similar project with an equally worthy beneficiary. As you may have heard, I am in grave danger. If action is not taken by April 24th, I will be forced to become an accountant. Please do not let this happen.
For the few that may not know who I am…my name is Matt and I am one half of America’s fourth funniest lowbrow buddy comedy duo, Two Hit Wonder. According to our website statistics, somewhere between 4 and 37 people depend on me for daily entertainment. The more time I spend accounting, the less time I’ll have to entertain America. If I am forced to become an accountant, everyone loses.
But, it’s not too late to write a happy ending to this potentially devastating tale. If you appear on the list below please contact me immediately about participating in this worthy cause.
Tenacious D
The Dan Band
Lyle Lovett
They Might Be Giants
Flight of the Conchords
David Allan Coe
Clay Aiken
Poison
Ray Pruit
Spinal Tap
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Neil Diamond
If you aren’t on the list above, don’t worry. They let Dan Akroyd, Marlon Jackson, and Cyndi Lauper sing on “We are the World”. If you have time, talent and especially money, we’ll find a place for you.
Initially, I had planned to do one song, but why should we settle for anything less than a three-disc box set when we’re talking about a charity that’s so important to so many people.
I’m currently working on the first song, “Set Matt Free”, but may need some help finishing it. Here’s what I have so far, “My name’s Matt and I’m a Wonder, I’m just here to do the Super Bowl Shuffle” (begin dance sequence). Feel free to work off of that model, or come up with your own, original work.
In closing, I’d like you to ask yourself when was the last time you were asked to come to the aid of an overweight, slightly balding, lactose intolerant, badly mustached, 34 year old Norwegian American? This might be the last chance you get. Do not pass now and hate yourself later. You can make a difference. Please note that all donations and proceeds from the sale of the record will go directly to the Save a Wonder Foundation. For additional details, please visit the “Set Matt Free” page on Two Hit Wonder.
Thanks,
Matt H. Wonder

They're trying to make me an accountant...Update 5...How I Got Here
Since we started “Operation Set Matt Free”, I’ve found that people think I’m joking when I say, “they’re trying to make me an accountant”. I’m not. How did I get myself in this position? Here’s the recap with names and company names changed to protect the stupid.
About a month ago, I got a call from my boss, Fluffy, who conveniently works out of state. After some consolidation, her out-of-state team outnumbered my team 10 to 1. But, we were assured that our jobs were safe.
Quick sidenote…I just looked up the word safe to make sure that I didn’t misunderstand the definition. I googled “definition of safe” and found this link…safe. Definition number one was “condom”. Little did I know that what they meant by “safe” was that I would need to take all necessary precautions, because I was about to get screwed.
When my boss called to tell me this great news, she babbled incessantly and said virtually nothing. I’m pretty sure she fired me, but her rambling monologue left me uncertain. At one point she said, “I’m getting the impression from other people that the team is being reduced in size”…which is an unusual way to say, “I have decided that you are jobless”.
Did she think she was doing me a favor by letting me down easily? I would have preferred the band-aid approach. Rip it right off. Get it over with. I asked her what kind of timeframe we were looking at. She was unsure. “No problem,” I thought, “When I get home, I’ll just tell the wife and two small kids that I was fired. But, when they will stop being able to eat would be anyone’s guess.”
A colleague received the same confusing call from Fluffy. He asked if she was saying that we should start looking for new jobs. She said, “Manager to employee, I can’t say. But, Fluffy to Sleepy, it might be best to keep your options open.”
I relayed our story to a co-worker (who did not get laid off), whose husband is a manager at our company. Her husband said we should report the mishandling of our termination to Human Resources. I hadn’t really thought about that, but after reading the termination checklist prescribed by our CEO, he was probably right. Our CEO said, “Be assured that the process of staffing reductions will be managed with respect and dignity, with high quality severance packages, advance notice and employee support throughout the process.”
Sounds like Fluffy went 0 for 4. There’s nothing more respectful and dignified than a phone call that doesn’t flat out tell you, but implies that you’re fired. I was not offered a severance package. Technically I was given advance notice, but minor details like if I was really getting fired and when that would occur were left out. Essentially they were pushing me to find another job so that I wouldn’t get a severance package.
But, I wanted a severance package.
Instead, I was told to interview for an Accounting job. The “interview” consisted of explaining the Accounting job to me. It was clear that they wanted to hire me and were trying to sell me on the job. But, if they were trying to sell it to me, I’m not sure they chose the right details to highlight, telling me that one year they came in on Christmas day and some nights during month-end close they stay till midnight. I tried my best to convince them that I was a poor fit. I was asked about my accounting background and explained that my degree was in English and therefore I had no experience.
But, apparently, that’s exactly what they were looking for. Today I received an official job offer. On 4/24/06 they are making me into an Accountant against my will. Instead of 10 wonderful weeks of severance, I was sentenced to 30 years in corporate America.
If I take this job, I will become a living, breathing oxymoron. Accounting’s yin and 2HW’s yang. I cannot possibly entertain America and pretend to be an accountant at the same time. And yet, a Wonder cannot live on the proceeds of the one t-shirt we’ve sold alone. Set me free. Donate to the Save a Wonder Foundation today.

They're trying to make me an accountant...Update 4...First Job Offer
This is a big day. I received my first job offer in “the industry” (details below). I passed, but barely. Twelve days until I become an accountant. Please help me.
i’m an independantly wealthy movie producer without spell check. i’m currently seeking men for an “adult themed” motioon picture titled “you’ve got male”…interested?
Oswald Penny Packer
“OPP,
How can I explain it? I’ll take it frame by frame it. O is for Other, P is for People, Scratch your temple, the last P, well, that’s not that simple…bust it.” Thank you Oswald for taking me back to my days as a teenage “Naughty by Nature” fan. I’m down with OPP…yeah you know me.
While I may be down with OPP, I plan to give my career a couple more weeks before I would consider being down with “adult themed” films. But, as a gifted writer, I am willing to help you come up with original titles for films in your genre. All you have to do is replace a word from the title of a well known film with the word “anus”. Below are excerpts from Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan’s actual IMDB movie profiles with titles changed for your pleasure. You’re welcome.
Thanks,
Matt from 2HW

They're trying to make me an accountant...Update 3...Letter to Bob Barker
Dear Bob Barker,
You are the Mother Theresa of game show hosts. You give until it hurts, and then you give some more. In 30 plus years hosting “The Price is Right”, you’ve given away 600 million dollars worth of cash and prizes. For most people, that would have been more than enough. But, you somehow find the time during each show to tell people what to do with their pet’s reproductive organs.
While so many celebrities are supporting cliché charities that help terminally ill children or victims of abuse, you are making the world a better place by making sure that Scruffy and Princess don’t suffer the indignity of unplanned pregnancy. Thanks to your brave work, the household pet population has stabilized.
Meanwhile, with very little publicity, there is another population that is projected to increase at an alarming rate. If action is not taken immediately, there will be one too many accountants on April 24th. There is a simple solution, but I need your help. I implore you to take a break from your typical TPIR sign off and start ending every show with this statement, “Help control the accountant population. Donate to the Save a Wonder Foundation today.”
Thanks,
Matt H. Wonder

They're trying to make me an accountant...Update 2...Letter to Hugh Hefner
Panic is setting in. I am 17 days away from becoming an accountant. I’m going to start appealing directly to Hollywood’s biggest names to help.
Dear Hugh Hefner,
You recently put Jessica Alba on the cover of Playboy without asking her permission. When she threatened to sue, you donated money to her favorite charity and all was forgiven.
I’ve attached a picture of me in a Two Hit Wonder thong (thongs now available for purchase in the Two Hit Wonder store). I forbid you to put my photo on the cover of your magazine. If you choose to ignore my demand, my favorite charity is the Save a Wonder Foundation.
Thanks,
Matt

They're trying to make me an accountant...Update 1
It’s been twelve hours since my initial plea for help and I've yet to receive a job offer in the entertainment industry. In an effort to buy more time, 2HW WOULD LIKE TO ANNOUNCE THE CREATION OF THE “SAVE A WONDER FOUNDATION”.
You know those charity functions where people get placed in jail until they can find friends willing to donate enough money to charity to bail them out? Operation “Set Matt Free” is just as stupid, but his jail is all too real. If action is not taken immediately, I will be spending the next 30 years to life in an 8x6 cube impersonating an accountant. I need your help now. Quit wasting your money helping poor people and unethically treated animals. You can help bail me out right now with a generous donation to the Save a Wonder Foundation. Just click the link below.

They're trying to make me an accountant!!!!!
Today is a dark day in 2HW history. I received a death sentence. In nineteen days, I will start a job as an accountant. Take a long look at my picture below. I am not an accountant. If I take this job, all creativity will likely be sucked out of me. I’ll be reduced to hilarious yarns about rounding errors and GAAPs. Two Hit Wonder as we know it could cease to exist.
To prevent this from happening, I have decided to seek a paying gig in the entertainment industry that is good enough to convince my wife to move my family to the entertainment capital of the world, India’s Film Mecca, Bollywood.

Dear Hollywood,
I have until 4/24 to become an international phenomenon or I will turn into an accountant. Please Help!
My resume is posted here (dead link deleted). My headshot is at the top of the site. (I’m one of the good-looking ones.) Also on display is my extensive portfolio of lowbrow comedy writing.
All paying gigs will be considered with the probable exception of gay porn (unless it’s tasteful).
Thanks,
