Cease and Desist

I am really sick of a commercial that runs every inning during the Yankee games. It's for a product called Procede which is the opposite of Recede.

It's for a product that grows hair on balding men (on their heads). A hair stylist named Giuseppe Franco gives the spiel. He "don't know nuttin' about what's in it...blah...blah...he don't own no stock in it...blah...blah...but what the hell...it works!"

I paraphrase. Slightly.

The featured celebrity is Gary Busey. He is shown with a frightening grin hugging Giuseppe.

If I were to sell a product, the last celebrity I would want endorsing it would be Gary Busey.

Not to mention Giuseppe. Giuseppe seems to be a fey hit man.

Doug LOVES that ad. He has been known to rewind the Busey bit.
