Who embodies class, masculinity and sophistication?

In today's New York Times -- the paper version of which I receive Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays -- was an eight-page advert for American Airlines. The first page features a picture of a well-dressed, ruggedly handsome and masculine Gregory Peck. I'm guessing American believes these are all the qualities that appeal to the business community: solid, strong and flying off somewhere wonderful to do something important.

And who does American choose to represent those same qualities today? That would be out and proud gay actor Neil Patrick Harris. You go, Neil!

And kudos to American Airlines.
