A DNA Test?

You know how sometimes you go by a telephone pole and you'll see some kind of advertisement on a sign nailed to it?

Of course we never see the people actually putting the signs up there, but somebody must be doing it. I always think they must be working for someone who pays them per sign, and is probably one of those places where you get a job through the classified ads, like "Work from your home."

Today was the first time I ever saw one that advertised getting a DNA test. Who knows who these people are? Could this possibly be the best way to get a DNA test, by calling an unknown number on a telephone pole?

Let's say you're in court and they ask about the DNA testing standards, and the best you can do is say that you got a test off of a telephone pole. It's kind of like getting an education from matchbook university.
