I was try to fall asleep last night and decide to set the sleep timer on my TV. I believe I was watching the news when a commercial came on for some new exotic 4 wheel drive vehicle. It was some exotic make and model. I could of sworn the guy in the passanger seat was Kenny Banya ("he's some awful comedian" - Jerry). Does this 'ring' a bell with anyone?

Another note on Banya sightings: He was in an ad for Holiday Inn that aired during the Super Bowl. They pulled the ad because it had some dude dressed in drag that I guess some people objected to. Can't wait to see the Oldsmobile ad... you know the company he SHOULD do ads for: Ovaltine. "The cannister isn't oval shaped, it's round. It should be called round-tine!" Ugh. "The worst, Jerry, the worst."
