YOU CAN VOTE FOR A TUNA, BUT YOU CAN'T TUNE A FISH: Perhaps one of my favorite moments of what turned out to be an insanely busy summer was an impromptu version of "Time for Me to Fly" on the shores of Lake Nebagamon, so that may explain the REO reference in the title (this year's incoming freshmen will never know the thrill of rushing home from Sears to play their newly purchased vinyl versions of Hi Infidelity and Paradise Theater on their combination AM/FM, 8-Track, Turntable, Cassette stereo they got for their bar mitzvah), but all this is going a long way toward informing you that the nominees for the Madison Avenue Advertising Walk of Fame have been named and you can vote now for who should join the likes of the Gecko, Juan Valdez and others on the Walk. My vote? Charlie Tuna, of course. Who can't love a fish whose sole ambition in life is to be canned for consumption?
