Though I've never been able to verify it, Toonces had to be the brainchild of Steve Martin. It debuted when he guest-hosted and Martin's character was portrayed by Dana Carvey after that. It's so typical Steve Martin. I also really believe that Jack Handey is Steve Martin. For similar reasons. I think the Jack Handey wiki page is completely fabricated. The clues are all there. Look at the picture! Read the articles/books (Sounds so much like Cruel Shoes.) Listen to the audio! Why would he do that? Strictly for creative reasons. For fun. For a lot of reasons. This is my theory.
I love Steve Martin. I mean, I love love Steve Martin!
