Leno seems like a cool guy. If ever I am flipping through those late night shows I will watch Leno JUST because he is a car guy. I think Charley has met him? Is he a cool guy Charley?

I met Jay and he told us that story about the Deusy in the parking garage. It is or was owned by members of the Macys Dept store family. Jay is a wonderful guy to talk to. Very humble. Absolute car nut and very quick witted guy. He knows every detail about all his cars and it is very evident that he is probably at his shop every day working on them or enjoying them. His shop is about 3 miles from the Burbank studio. He usually drives one of his cars to work each day. The day we watched his show I think he drove a Lamborghini Muira to work. When he gave us a tour of his stuff I mentioned my Yale Motorcycle and the next thing I know he is showing me how to tweak the carb on it to help me get it started by showing me a similar bike in his collection. His celebrity status probably hinders him from being able to do many car events because of the hounding but he is more of a car guy than most people I have met.
