Try as we might, usually we all end up being walking billboards for some company. It is such a huge part of our consumer society that we rarely give the phenomenon a second thought. Mr. Meister, though, has taken the courageous step of requesting that the name of his car be removed - not the car dealer's name, mind you -(although I'm confident that the dealer's name is long gone from his car)- but the brand name of the car! Very bold move. Short interesting piece. Catchy title.
