Jay Leno and the Magic Chicken

jay leno tonight show magic chicken 2004
Back in 2004, I was working at NBC as a project coordinator and research staffer for the Tonight Show. The job was one big ball of stress and left me with absolutely no time for my personal life. You can probably guess I did not last long there, and returned to my home city of Hollydale. People have often asked me about my time in Burbank California where I had my small condo, and ask if there was anything exciting, bob hope airportor interesting that happened. My answer is no, with the exception of my personal "favorite show". The last guest was Martha Hefenster, and she brought her "Magic Chicken" from Ohio. I found her while reading local headlines, and convinced Leno to invite her on the show. She was a huge hit, and people talked about that episode for weeks. Me? I quit a month later, and left everything in my office BUT this photo. It was a magic night, with a magic chicken.

Oh, you have a photo of my human's favorite airport! Unfortunately, none of the flights she ever takes go through there, only through LAX, her LEAST favorite airport.
