See and Say

Jake was honored for his work with New Eyes for the Needy last night at New Eye's 80th Anniversary dinner which held at Colicchio & Sons in New York, after having to be postponed due to Hurricane Sandy.

While his head might have looked a little wild and wooly,  he was the refined gentleman in an impeccably tailored wool suit shoulders downs. 

But all the wild didn't hinder him from breaking out the grins. 

Jake hasn't gotten to Wolfie stage yet.

 Just four more weeks and a trim and the beard can go... or at very least be trimmed and tamed.

After he was honored  Jake "talked at length to the small room – and he didn't even have to give a speech! – he shared some personal stories from childhood." (source)

Jake shared how he got involved with the organization as a kid because his grandpa, a doctor, made him donate his eyeglasses every time his prescription changed.

He said that while "all his friends were trying to save the seals, he maintained 'If you can't see the seals, how can you help them?'

And Jake's date for the night? Mom.
