"I think there should be laws governing the use of confetti...it should only be used on New Years and if you've won a war."
- Jeff, while watching the Singing Bee where the show's winner received a trophy, $50,000 and a stream of confetti
"You know how some people you look at them and see the gears turning in their head? Well, you look at him and you can see the gears at a standstill."
- Jeff
Jeff: "I wanted to know if I could marry your daughter."
Mom: "Which one?"
- Great moment in engagement history
"She's not obeying the rules of parking!"
- Jeff, on his insistence not to back up for a woman in the mall parking lot who tried to reverse to take the spot of a person leaving whose parking spot was about about a half a car's length behind her (and therefore a half a car length in front of us). It felt like a Seinfeld moment, especially when the lady got out of her car and started screaming at us to back up and yelling at Jeff to "be a gentleman." If I hadn't told him to move, I honestly think he would have sat there all night out of principle.
"This is what you get when it's 5pm on Friday night and you realize you haven't gotten your brother anything for his birthday."
- Jeff, to his brother Brian upon presenting him with a World Poker Tour chip set (now the third set he's given to a family member)
"I think we just had an Alias moment."
- Jeff, after we walked past a limping security guard with pacing in front of an open stairwell door where Jeff saw two other guards. Moments later, after we had turned the corner, a police car with its lights on whizzed past us going about 60 mph.
"What does it say about me that my favorite college basketball team is UNLV (the most notorious team off all time), my favorite college football team is UM (they call them Felon U), I think Barry Bonds is the greatest hitter ever (rumored steroid user), and my favorite basketball players is Kobe (alleged rapist)?"
- Jeff, on his sports heroes
"That's bullsheet! Sheethead."
- Jeff, who knows that he can always make me laugh with a good sheet-play-on-words one liner. Fun JennChantal.com fact: the very first official JennChantal To My Ears quote of the day was a sheet-play-on-words.
"Magic Manrod?"
- Jeff, after we passed an SUV with the website www.magicmanrod.com displayed across the back window. If you visit the website you'll see there's a magic man named Rod...not what Jeff was thinking.
"Cheese-us."
- Jeff, after I showed him the ungodly amount of cheese in my burrito
