Ok, nissan has a new commercial out, some guy driving and comes to a bookstore. Hes buying a book, a first addition Kurt Vonnegut, Im sorry but i didnt get the title of the book, but they did mention it was a first addition, i thought it might be a VISA ad or something at this point, you know the whole priceless deal, but it wasnt. Anyway the guy goes to the cashier to buy the book and who is standing in line but Kurt Vonnegut himself, who signs the book with a picture of himself. Then they cut to the car again. I saw it and immediately thought of you Avalon. :)

he did this one. pretty cool that a writer has that much influence nowadays to actually get an endorsement deal. They couldn't have picked a better one either, and it wasnt a voice over, he actually starred in it.
