    In reply to Burbank Envy: A Glimpse Inside Jay Leno's Garage
    At my most recent job, one of my co-workers arranged, through a friend of his, for us to go and see Jay's garage. There were maybe 15 of us total, and the fellow who oversee's the place treated us as if we were all close personal friends of Mr. Leno. Even those who work for Jay are class acts.
    That day will forever remain on my top 5 list of "best days ever". We didn't get to meet the man himself, but the fact that he had no problem with a bunch of strange motorheads touring his automotive nirvana was all the grace he needed to show.

    The only downer? Realizing that I picked the wrong profession with which to enjoy cars. And seeing that I am neither funny nor terribly smart, I will have to continue to live vicariously through good fellows like Jay Leno.

    Am I the only one who expected to see at least a half-dozen BendPak lifts? [Jay Leno Ad]

    OK, since he is bombing at the 10pm slot he needs to get Jerry Seinfield and a third(?) for a Sunday evening American Top Gear. It could replace the lost joy of a family gathering together for the old Wonderful World of Disney show that I watched as a young man with my family. Run it as a short series after football till summer, make it special and rare.

    @che-che: Why not both? In reality, Tim Allen was a raging coke head and an alcoholic. In reality, Jerry Seinfeld is essentially a comedian with a serious addiction to Porsches. They'd make for some entertainment with Leno as the lead. Though, I'm not sure any of them compare with the rapier wit of Top Gear's leading man, Jeremy, I would tune in every week to watch.

    @stevecmh: Sienfield might only talk Porsche's, but he is passionate about them. Tim Allen would be a good Detroit iron promoter on the show.

    So you have the three, Leno is Clarkson, Seinfeld is Hammond and Allen... James May?..not sure on that one.

    I want to be Jay Leno when I grow up. I already have the chin for it, but I'm smart enough to cover it with a goatee.

    Interestingly, I saw a Tatra T87 last month in L.A. at the French and Italian show, but it wasn't Jay's. Jay brought a beautiful Bugatti Atlantic instead.
