Btw, Jay Leno made the same reference in his monologues yesterday. Something like "Richard Gere pissed off the Indians so much, tech support put him on hold for 18 hours."
I thought it was pretty funny.

I second that. Lets start a PC campaign to cleanse the media of call center references. :-P

Funniest line in that video was when Jon asks Mandvi how someone gets a effigy of Richard Gere.

Mandvi's answer: Take a effigy of Josh Hartnett and age it 30 years!

:D

But the references to call centers is getting a bit too stale.
