Okay, who's seen that ad with the guy who changes his train tickets on his phone to meet
the girl of his dreams (and they eventually become the parents of a future POTUS)? That guy is SOOOOOOO HOT he makes my knees weak. Just wanted to say that.

3. I'm guessing that it's actually he who becomes the president.
As I recall, the inauguration was sometime in 2052 or so. If it's their son, the son would have to be a very young POTUS.

4. Actually I was looking around for a picture of him and found some site where someone
Edited on Fri Aug-13-10 03:43 PM by grace0418
worked out the math based on the announcement of it being the 57th POTUS or something, and it was totally off (something like the parents would be 110 and the son would be 80). Whoever worked that out has way too much time on their hands. :)

No the story is told in reverse, they are sitting at their sons inauguration, then time reverses to show their son at younger and younger ages, then the wife pregnant, then their wedding, then you see the man on the platform. He sees the woman of his dreams, changes his ticket and jumps on the train. Believe me, I stop and watch that ad whenever it's on. ;) Not that I even remember what the ad is actually advertising.

8. I must have the date down wrong.
If it's the 57th POTUS, it would have to be at least 2065 until he's sworn in (that would assume that all Presidents, from Obama on, all have 1 term presidencies). It's always seemed a very bizarre commercial to me.

14. Yeah, even without working out the math in my head something seemed odd. But all
that quickly faded when I saw Hotty McHottingham.

12. Of course it's his (and the girl's he met on the train) son.
Edited on Fri Aug-13-10 06:39 PM by LisaL
Otherwise commercial would make no sense whatsoever.

5. Found his website.
http://www.jayhayden.net/

I think it's the combination of boyishness, vaguely mixed heritage (possibly half Asian?) and freckles that does me in. :loveya:

He seriously needs a new website, though, maybe I should contact him. ;)

7. LOL. Good idea!
I'm happily married and probably a good ten years older than he. But he's nice to look at for sure.

9. I've seen it and I can't believe he could change his ticket that fast!
Yes, he's hot--and she is, too, but damn, no wonder their kid becomes POTUS!

16. They would have gorgeous children if they really were a couple.
LOL! We're marrying off two actors in a commercial.

13. Yes! If Noah Wiley were half Asian. He may not even be half Asian, but he looks
like he could be. Whatever, he's dreamy.

17. Agree.
With both sentiments. AT&T is why I don't have an iPhone.
