Follow up question about the Vontage Commercial:

- Split screen, Big Phone Company guy on the Left, gal in an Orange
blouse on the Right.

I've been thinking she is the alien from Galaxy Quest, the real cute
one that falls for an earthling. Isn't that the same gal?

With the dark hair? Kind of a Three Stooges hairdo?

Huh, a quick look at imdb disabuses me of that idea after all. But if
you see the commercial you'll see what I mean.

I don't think that's the same girl, but every time I see that
commercial I remark that I swear if she pulled her hair back she's got
pointy ears. They could put her the new Trek flick and the prosthetic
eartips would be all the makeup she would need. Having said that, I
actually think she's cute in a Vulcany kind of way. better than T'Pol,
anyway...

BTW, it's actually an ANTI-Big Phone ad, for Vonage, IIRC. There may
be parts of the country where that works but here in sunny,
hurricane-prone FLA where this time a week ago I was just getting my
power back from a 28-hr power outage wherein my landline phone was the
ONLY thing in my house that worked (had to charge my work BlackBerry
in the truck the previous night) I am 100% with the dude on the left
side of the screen...but she could still bump me with her hip and I
wouldn't mind...
