Comments: Help a Monk find a Little Man

"Years ago I experienced something truly bizarre, and I want someone out there to confirm that they experienced it too:
Jay Leno was on the Tonight Show, but I think it may have been before he took over hosting because I think he was a guest. Anyway, he told this story about when he was a kid and you used to be able to order exotic pets through the mail- they had ads in the back of comic books and stuff- so I think he said he ordered some kind of monkey type creature. Then 6-8 weeks later, a package arrived, and when hed it a LITTLE MAN jumped out. Now, remember this is Jay Leno who is way too boring to make something like this up. A little man, about six inches tall and naked, jumped out and made this fucked-up noise- Leno did the noise a couple of times- and then ran out his back door and into a field. They never saw it again.
Leno was very specific that this was not a monkey, that it had all the features of a grown human being BUT SIX INCHES TALL.
I've asked several people over the years if they ever saw this interview and they all told me I probably dreamed it. Does anybody know of a comprehensive guide to Tonight Show interviews?
Or does anybody remember seeing this interview? I really don't think I dreamed it!"
