I'll never forget the first time I made pot roast for your father. Only he wasn't your father then, we was just keeping company. I invited him to my house for dinner and I made him pot roast. And that was the first time he ever called me "dingbat." Edith Bunker

Who the hell ever hear of sacrificing a head of lettuce? You?" Archie Bunker
Aw geez what a bunch that is: A meathead, A dingbat, a woman's lib and a bald headed kid. Archie Bunker
I've gotta quote for you, Edith. 'A bird that always flies in the fog is called a dingbat. Archie Bunker
And you know what, ever since then, no matter how mad he says "dingbat," I always hear a little "sweetheart" in it. Edith Bunker
Well in them days, Archie was too shy to call me "sweetheart" or "darling," so he called me "his little dingbat." Edith Bunker

I have no problem playing for the team!  I think Carl Reiner is referring to Carl Sandburg.  Flat Rock, North Carolina is a short drive from here.

More specific: You didn't use the arrangement of the letters and symbols on a keyboard to devise your code, did you?
