Trust me, with the B.O. lingering in the cab, he don't need Hall's! ;)

Who's the guy in the Halls commercial?

Why am I thinking he looks a lot like Harvey Lembeck (of "Beach Blanket Bingo," etc. fame)?

I remember this when I was a kid! That sound brings me back, too! I remember thinking, "What's the big deal if she's a woman cabbie?" I also remember thinking that the logical thing adults would do would be to give intelligence tests to all the adults and make the smartest ones the leaders.
