All of your Subway commercial questions answered
You may remember a few months back when I posted about the local resurrection of a very 80's looking Subway commercial. Thanks to a contributer to this thread at MNSpeak, I found this article from the Pioneer Press that answers all of our nagging questions.
-It originally aired nationwide in 1985.
-No, that is NOT Parker Posey. That is the word directly from her manager, Frank Frattaroli.
-The commercial is currently airing in parts of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Iowa.

Well, one less reason to go to Subway now. Or maybe Parker Posey's agent is already embarrassed about Parker being in a commercial with a butt-scraping Jimmy Fallon, and won't admit to any other commercial appearances.
I may have been the first commenter on your blog to mention the potential Parker Posey sighting, so I regret the misinformation.
the girl on the right IS without a doubt, a young Ione Skye (from Say Anything), who is now apparently married to one of the Beastie Boys. and, strangely enough, the daughter of Donovan, the 60's folk singer.
