Moffitt Minute

Faces

Okay so I love to make funny faces (and by "funny" I mean they're really only funny to me).  I don't know when this started but it was early on because just about every family picture (even those in which I'm sporting a perm and Keds) has been ruined by me making faces.  My mom would love it if I would stop, but it's just too fun...until today that is.  I wasn't fortunate enough to witness this, but thanks to a few of my co-workers, I was made aware that one of my ridiculous faces made it on the air! Terrible :( I guess the system we use to run video malfunctioned and played too much of my taped tease, you know, the little segments we do that say something along the lines of "they're fresh, fruity and easy to make...coming up next, everything you need to know about summer cocktails." Anyway, I guess when Photographer, Jim Stanton, and I were out taping our summer cocktails story, I was unhappy with the tease we recorded and of course, made some stupid face afterward that then appeared on this morning's news by accident.  I'm not exactly sure why I'm sharing this, maybe just to deal with the embarrassment and oh yeah, remind myself...NO MORE FACES! Stick out tongue

Maybe this post is your attempt at saving "face."

Thanks, I'll be here all week.  Try the veal...

I know you were "red faced" about the face incident, Moffitt -- but considering other video and comments that have made it on the air i.e. "wardrobe malfunction", "erection fraction" (ask Steve Knight and Shane Schillaci about that one), "Dude, you wasted your money" (ask Jim Stanton about that one), a litte "face time" isn't that bad.

Just don't say "UN-GYUN" on the air, or you'll really turn red ;-)

Speaking of things that made air when they shouldn't have. In Indy, I'd taped a newsbreak and flubbed it. Then they reshot it. Well, much to my "Un-Gyun" the one that aired was my making the mistake... It starts off ok, and ends up with "let's try that one again". Not horrific, but amazing more of those don't air. I'm sure you were mortified... THAT'S the face we on nights would have paid to have seen ;-)
