Jake: a fire fighter
Jake: "A jake is a British slang term for someone or thing that is satifactory"
Last night at the 12-12-12 Concert Jake helped out some Jakes, and his donation to Sandy relief was jake.
Jake not only helped on the phones, but he talked about the devastation to Long Beach, Long Island and introduced those watching to an EMT who selflessly continued to help others while her own home was affected the storm.
Long Island - Jake? What's the connection?
Jake's more a Village guy, Lower Eastside, or the Meatpacking district or Brooklyn, but Long Island????
Well since Jake has "settled" in NYC back in 2011, there have been tweets and mentions, comments and coincidences that have connected Jake to Long Island.
Jake has been spotted in Long Island more than a few times over the last couple of years, then there was the picture from Long Island of a two-story Colonial that someone claimed was Jake's.
There's been the new set of Long Island friends, including Jerry Seinfeld, and don't forget the sleep over at the Seinfelds.
And of course a screening of EoW where? Long Island.
Now Jake was chosen to talk about Long Island for the concert. Hmmmm
Sound like there could be a long story about Long Island there.
Could it be base camp for more than just Jake? And more like the whole crazy crew of talls and smalls?
And good Jake?
Well.... Jake said that if anchor Brian Williams put on the helmet on live TV Jake would donate $10,000 to Sandy relief.
And in that moment something changed. Jake's supported and donated to many good causes before, but he never disclosed so publicly how much support he's given. But last night all rules were off for a guy in a New York state of mind.
Happy Hanukkah!!!
