Photo Lineup

As you can see class, it is clearly a fallacious myth that "Polly wants a cracker." She obviously much prefers a Brazil Nut. 

Tired of Sudoku and The New York Times Crossword Puzzle? Well here's a fresh challenge for you. What do you say. Let's get INTERACTIVE!

Now for this week's MetNet Pop Quiz we will work with a set of matching. Merely match the picture number with with the appropriate letter, name and description. If you don't pass this quiz? Hang your head in shame!

1. ____

A.  Reece King, slick, talented, glib co-anchor of the MetReport this last year. Here is a little inside joke that those close to Reece will get. Sorry about the rest of you. " Yes Santa Claus, there is a Virginia!"    (Bonus clue? "Is that a Rolex or are you just happy to see me.")                                   

2. ____

B. Jeff Maher, reporter for KOB, Alburquerque. Got to spend a week on board an aircraft carrier profiling New Mexican service men and women. (Bonus clue? "Any Eye Witnesses see what happened here?")

 

 

3._____

C. Michelle Griego, reporter/anchor for CBS 4 in Denver. She is a charter member of the MetReport on campus. She once anchored a news show for kids in Denver. She is one of the few people to ever come right out of college and get an on-air gig in a major market. She let me babysit her new daughter Geeana while she spoke to two of my classes. (Bonus clues? I touched her up with photo shop, but believe me, she does NOT need it. "Make sure you wrap your story up with some HOT pictures.") 

 

4. ____

D. Brittany Dack, a young mountain woman very talented in front of cameras and microphones. She is mild mannered in the deceptive mode of Cat Woman. She is a skilled kick boxer.  (Bonus clue? The gravity of the situation appears to be pulling all her hair to her right, your left.  NO, your other left!)

 

 

5.____

E. Tasha Orr, actress, radio host, reality show assistant producer and now selling mortgages on the internet from her home in Las Vegas. She has just  returned from London where she saw her newborn niece. (Bonus clue. She is standing next to that same OLDER MAN.)

 

 

 

6.____

 

F. David Liebling, the voice of GOD. I think he'll be taking over for Charleton Heston soon. David is doing freelance voice work in Denver. (Bonus clue? He might have red hair.)

 

 

7.____

 

G. Jonathon Snyder is a truly versatile man whose future holds many creative opportunities. Right now writing for, promoting, and playing in his band is the leading priority. (Bonus Clue? To protect his identity, I sketched him.)

 

 

8.____

  

H. Andrea Reliford can and will do it all. She is currently employed by Comcast as a programming manager. She also shoots and edits freelance, and I'm still hoping she tries some things on camera where she shines. (Bonus clue? She loves subdued light, salt and pepper, and takes lemon in her iced tea.)

 

 

9.____

I. Ellese Laner, a transplant from Trinidad, the city not the Island. Every once in a while you find some hidden talent in a student that just explodes when it finally gets out. She did a lot of anchoring and reporting for the Met Report this year. She has a wonderful sense of humor and limitless energy. She is fun to be around. (Bonus clue? She is not last, at least not quite last. She might have all her teeth.)

 

 

 

10.____

 

J. Tara Schwartz, a former cheerleader; a former anchor, sports reporter, reporter, photographer for the Met Report;  and now gainfully employed as an assignment editor at KMGH TV. I'm pretty sure Paula Vargas and I will be including Tara in our Bi-Annual therapy sessions. (Bonus clue? She will let almost anybody give her a hug)

 

 

11.____

 

K. Karissa Gallero, knew this TV business before she got out of high school. She finagled an internship with a bureau reporter her senior year, and during that time frame got to do it all. (Bonus clue? "You take the pictures, I'll drink!")

 

 

12.____

L. Matt Kay, super photographer, editor, working for Go World Productions. He is still beaming from his trip to Egypt to absorb the ambience of the pyramids. (Bonus Clue?  How do you get snockered on bottled water?)

 

13.____

M. Melissa DeBaca, a marvelous young screen actress.  She has been in a bunch of Independent Films, while recreationally waiting tables at a popular family restaurant. (Bonus clue? She might have red hair too. And, hey, I think she's got the wave down perfectly.)
