So, hopefully everyone tuned into the Today Show on Thursday, December 11th at 9:15 AM to see the awesome segment about the Page Program. But since most of you probably didn't, here's the link for it:
So anyway, it was quite the segment. I am a little bummed though that I didn't end up getting in it at all. Jenna Wolfe, the Today Show correspondent who did the piece, had called me and asked about my assignment and was going to come up and film me, but then didn't end up doing so for some reason. Then the day they filmed I was busy up on assignment so I couldn't ninja myself into any shots around the lunch table or anything. DAMMIT!!! haha... Oh well, there's always next time.
Anyway, a couple thoughts about the segment:
1. I love how it makes the Pages look like a bunch of midgets with the gargantuan Jeff towering over all of us. (Again, this is just another reason I should have been included in the piece!!! I could have brought some much needed size to the land of the little people.)
2. Have you ever seen a group of people look more disgusted to have to go on a tour with a Today Show Correspondent and cameras (giving them a chance to be on television) and then to be so rudely interrupted by a national news anchor (AKA BRIAN FRICKIN WILLIAMS)??!?!?!?! I've seen people look more interested after smelling baby farts.
....yes, I did say baby farts.
3. In classic Jeff (and even Nick form), both were in the piece multiple times, and then both fail to even watch it when it aired live... Jeff was like, "Oh, yea... I guess I was in that." Not that it's a big deal or anything... It's just national television. What a dumbsy.
Anyway, check it out and let me know what you think. Cool? Lame? Baby farts?
Good talk, chop you out there.

oh me goodness...i almost peed in my pants when i saw jeff in almost every single shot. he looked like he was 9 feet tall. amazing.
plus, you could tell that whats her face was starting to annoy him. he was like 'um, yeah, we're busy. stop talking.'
bummer you weren't in it...that would have been awesome.
gooz central, that was chop-a-licious. I wish you'd been in it though!!! Oh man, Jeff looked like he was 100 ft tall in every shot, especially the one where it was all the pages...you definitely would've helped give me some perspective on just how tall Jeff is...also, I had this dream last night where I was playing basketball with this 7' guys...so weird...anyway, those people did look pretty annoyed...so did Brian Williams...
