I have a few words to preface this video. First of all– I feel like this is the must unflattering angle of my face. It makes it look like I have a double chin. Secondly– the fact that I’m chewing gum lamentably does not help the double chin factor. third– Reagan is covering the microphone during most of the later half of the interview. So, good luck understanding the monkey story. Finally– Please try to ignore my disgusting teeth. Kelvis, I know they are what you were talking about when you said that my ears aren’t my “worst feature, by a long shot.” Someday, I will lay down the cash to get them fixed. Until then, I will smile with my mouth closed, and try to stay behind the camera, instead of in front of it.
Side note– It isn’t Reagan’s fault that she is covering the mic for part of the video. For whatever reason, I have noticed that in general, women have a propensity to hold an SLR camera like it was a polaroid, with one hand on either side of the body (instead of one hand on the body/shutter button, and one hand under the lens). I blame this on the advent of auto focus. It is the same reason that you see some people driving down the highway at 70+ MPH with their brake lights on, because they never drove a car with a clutch (so they have one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake). Technology is a double edged sword.

Haha. You guys are funny. You’re making me want to make some home videos! Also, I didn’t see any double chin action so get over it 🙂
I’m going to have to start a rebuttal blog just to defend myself from all of these misquotes and taken-out-of-contexts. But I can’t even defend myself here. For example, if I come back with something like “that’s not true, I would ~never~ say that,” then it sounds like I’m agreeing that your ears ARE your worst feature. And so I still come off as mean.
We once went to visit one of my dad’s clients in VA. He was old and rich and his wife was this young hottie and instead of children they had a pet monkey. The monkey wore diapers and hung out with us the whole visit. At one point it stole my mom’s glasses and took off with them. My mom cannot see anything without her glasses so she was freaking out. When we finally go the glasses back they were quiet bent. When she went to get them repaired she said that they looked at her like she was insane when she explained that a monkey had stolen them and bent them.
And that, is my monkey story 🙂
When you see how awfully late I wrote this comment you might be tempted to think that I wrote this in a late night giggle fit. Answer: No, I didn’t.
Comment: I can’t watch the video because its too late and quite but the words made me laugh and laugh and laugh!
Once, in Malaysia, I saw a monkey aggressively steal a water bottle from a tourist. Then he moved a few feet away from her, unscrewed the lid with his tiny monkey hand and drank some, then dumped the rest out, looking at her the whole time. It was before I had a camera with video, but I have a few funny photos of “the incident”. It was amazing. The only thing that would have made it more amazing is if he would have ridden away on a really fast goat at the end.
I dig these interviews. I may have to start our own series! Always coming up with good ideas, geesh you guys!
Oh c’mon Jake – why didn’t you dance?
