16 Name Droppers...?
Don't be afraid to shop around for tasks. Every HQ officer in every HQ in each neighborhood will offer you a different set of tasks to choose from. Check the HQ's in the playground and on each street (4 HQ officers in each). If you don't find an "easy" task, you can even check each of the shops on each street - the toons in there offer tasks, too.
I can usually find a nice, generic task (the "30 cogs anywhere" type of task) just by checking the HQ's in a few playgrounds.
BTW - Tom Tom's? I hope you carry around a whole cream pie...
