I have my final law school exam tomorrow, and I have not studied for it. Totally unprepared, and I can't seem to care about it. It's profiled, so I shouldn't fail. And Saturday I graduate whether I fail that class or not.

There are a couple of commercials getting a lot of air time that feature a couple of blasts from the past, and I feel it is my duty to hip you to their existence.

1. The car insurance commercials with the super-perky girl that looks like she should be covered in ink because she has that trendy-goth like look about her. The company is the one that gives you quotes for their competitors--I cannot remember their name, but you have seen this commercial. The particular commercial I am talking about has a female customer saying she is looking for a new company and trendy-goth girl says: look how much we saved this customer, and the female customer says--that's a new pair of shoes and goth girl says: or a tricked out name tag. The blast from the past is the female customer. Some of you may remember the last season of Saved by the Bell (season 5) featured a tough chick in leather named Tori. This is the girl in the commercial. I will look for pictures. I just did some looking, and the company is Progressive, and the chick from SBTB is an identical triplet, so it may be one of her sisters. Leanna Creel is the actress from Saved by the Bell. Interesting story about her character--the producers decided they wanted to double the number of episodes for that season and this decision was made after the actors had signed their contracts. The actors who play Jessie and Kelly refused to sign a new contract to appear in the extra episodes, so the producers invented the new character and the episodes were mixed in with the ones that featured Jessie and Kelly--the 3 characters never appeared in an episode together. As if one tough chick could ever take the place of Jessie and Kelly.

2. There is another car insurance commercial connected with AARP where a hot female police officer pulls a dude over and asks for his AARP (because officers often ask for this in addition to your license and registration), and when the dude asks if there is problem, the officer says yes--you don't have insurance through AARP etc. The dude they pulled over was a character actor on Three's Company. His biggest role was when he played Moose, a guy who went to high school with Jack and married a girl named Robin that Jack had a crush on. Robin calls Jack after she moves to LA and says she needs to see him--Jack doesn't know she is married and thinks he's about to get lucky. Janet says good luck on your date with Robin, and Mr. Furley overhears him, so Jack says he is going bird watching for robins. Mr. Furley decides to join him, Jack talks him out of it by playing the gay card--alone in the woods, but after Jack leaves, Mr. Furley decides to go anyway. Robin actually wanted to see Jack because her husband Moose is super jealous. More hilarity and misunderstandings ensue which are quickly resolved--roll credits.
