Suddenly, with no advanced notice, like Santa’s Reindeer landing on the roof of Carson High, a face appeared on Senators Now Digital Media’s morning announcements Dec. 15, the face of Hollywood actor Jack Black saying, “Merry Christmas Carson High School, it’s me Santa Claus…just kidding, ha ha ha…it’s Jackie Blackie Claus.”
CHS has had some amazing visitors over the years for sure, but those visitors could be seen coming from miles away due to advanced announcements, communication, emails, chairs being set up, and the high school in a flurry.
But no one said a word about Hollywood actor Jack Black appearing on the CHS morning announcements.
I have never seen a class of seniors erupt in such unbridled awe and excitement, every single student looking at me and each other as though Jack Black walked right into the classroom.
Black then began to sing, “Good tidings we bring for you and your kin, good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year…Merry Christmas.” Talk about an unexpected gift at an unexpected time.
How is it possible this gift was made to happen? Well, it is kind of like asking how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop.
Interestingly, a group of engineering students from Purdue University reported that its licking machine, modeled after a human tongue, took an average of 364 licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop. Well, there you have it, an answer to the timeless question of the Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop.
However, how Jack Black ended up on the CHS morning announcements, we may never know. It sure was cool though. See it for yourself by going to https://senatorsnow.org/
