- I'll pay you back, don't worry, you're coming, right? Janice?

- Yeah, I'm coming!

Okay great, just bring some more dip, and I'll... click

- Why'd you ring the door bell?

- I don't know.

So weird. Just walk in.

- Bring the dip?

- Yup.

- Hey, Janice.

- Honey, you've gotta come hear Larry's wisdom tooth story.

- Okay, we'll be there in a minute.

- Hey, Brian.

- I want you to meet someone.

- What? No, no, I don't, I don't want to ..

- Oh, come here.

- I wasn't planning to stay, yeah, because I'm not feeling right.

- You're fine.

- No, I really...

- There he is.

- Steps, you gotta follow 'em.

- All right, let's go.

- No, I'm not feeling good...

- Yes. Just take off your jacket.

- Stop it!

- Doug.

- Hey...

- this is my sister I was telling you about.

- Ohhh. Hey, Jill's sister.

- Alright, you two have fun.

- Hey, I'm Doug Duncan.

- Hi, I'm Janice.

- Hey, Janice.

- Hi.

- That's a really pretty sweater that you have on.

- Oh.

- Is that wool?

- Uh, I don't know.

- Hmm, it feels like wool.

- Is it itchy?

- Uh, not really.

- I once had a wool sweater, it was really itchy.

I almost wore it when I was flying to London,

first class, for a book signing.

- I'm an author.

- Oh, okay.

- Yeah, well, I guess they fly you first class to these things, I don't know...

But I'm lucky I didn't wear the sweater because

when I got there I had to go right from the airport

to a live interview at the BBC. So...

- The British Broadcasting Company.

- Right.

- Anyway, uh, what do you do?

- Um .. I don't really know how to answer that.

Corporation, sorry.

British Broadcasting Corporation. I always do that.

Uhh, but it was tough, you know, it was like three hours, and if had I worn the wool sweater.

I'd be like, you know, itchy much.

But it's serious, you can't be itchy on camera.

It's like a big no-no.

So, um. Do you have any hobbies? One of my hobbies is

helping kids?

Blind kids, build a church?

Residents on the south side are finding themselves knee deep in sewage

after a pipe broke near the corner of

Washington Boulevard and Main Street.

City officials have shut down Washington in order to fix the problem.

And we're told, construction could keep

the road closed through the New Year.

Boy, that's gonna make it rough on some of our commuters.

But let's take this over to Hal Baker, our man on the street.

- Who actually isn't on the street today.

He's in the studio. Hal?

- That's right, John. Thank you.

So some of you may have seen my next guest out on the street

some afternoon and wondered "Who the heck is that guy?"

Well we're here to find out. His name is Tim Tucker

And he's known as the "The Giant Mechanical Man."
