I wish I had a link to this tv commercial, but Geico insurance has now retained the services of Don LaFontaine. In the series of commercials ordinary people use celebrities to add drama and flair to their Geico stories. Don is in the latest one. It's hilarious. SOmebody more savy than I can probably find a link to the commercial somewhere.

I saw that commercial last evening and was on the floor laughing... Don must be getting hard up... or paid real well.

I never noticed before how much I am beginning to look like Don.. especailly on top and in the middle... LOL

Oh well... made you think.... and laugh - I hope.

I fully expected the Geico customer to be Dave Christi.

That was great! The worst one to me is with Burt Bacharach. It's just weak.

I like the dog in the background at the end. Just like my sessions.

I love the one with Burt! But yeah, it's very weird. The way he sings "Lizard licks his eyeball" and especially the part about getting hit in the rear. That line comes out as a very sexual thing to me. Probably not appropriate for an insurance commercial but it makes me laugh.
