Should the Jack In The Box Blog?

Here's the debate of the day at The Blogging Enterprise Conference. It came up during Shel Israel's talk. Should this guy - the icon from the Jack In The Box ads - blog? I say no. Others like Scott Allen and Matt Mullenweg - who surround me here in a blog sandwich - disagree. Matt says he would read it.

Personally, I don't think Jack should blog. He should stay in the box. Blogs are for real people. Flash web sites are for characters. I stand by my earlier position on character blogging. What do you think?
