commenting on the man....

The other day I caught a minute or two of Howard Stern and he was bashing Leno pretty hard for stealing material (mostly from Steve Allen it sounded like).

Leno also writes articles for ... I forgot which magazine. Anyway, it's about cars and his passion and the trade. He's an excellent writer. I really enjoy his style.

P.S. I know he didn't write the articles NFS4 posted. I am just saying, he DOES write.

Haha, actually he was blaming him for stealing Howard's material and blaming it on Steve Allen. It started from Lemo hiring Stuttering John away from the Stern Show.

Schweeet! Jay is awesome.

?The other day I was up in Coldwater Canyon and I came up behind a guy in a 911. He?d gun it and I?d stay right with him. You could see his expression in the rearview mirror, kind of like, ?What the f***???
Bwahahaha!!! :D:D

Next was a huge Duesenberg.

?That?s an actual wind-tunnel design. It was owned by [Eli] Lily, the pharmaceutical guy. It was just built to run over poor people with. He got it in ?34. He didn?t drive, he had a chauffeur. He?d go on the street and people would go, ?F*** you!? They?d throw rocks at it. He got rid of it in six months. I mean, the height of the Depression driving around in that thing??

LMAO.

/About howard blasting leno, I think it's either he's jealous (most unlikely) or Stern is just wasting time on his show (I mean what's Stern got left to talk about Hemoroids?

Hey, Leno DID hire Stuttering John right off the Stern show. I can understand why he's pissed. Leno called up Stern afterwards and Stern told him to fvck off.

Stern's an asshole who relies on shock and vulgarity to keep his audience. His show is unfunny. Leno owns him.

Thanks, read both.

That Roadmaster would put a grin on my face :)
No brag...I've seen Leno at two local shows. A Triumph car show out in Westlake, he drives up in a 3 wheel Morgan.
At a humble British bike meet in San Pedro, 10 years ago he rides up on a MV Agusta America and 6 years ago he
drives up in that Brookland's Special. He is approachable and seems embarrassed by his celebrity.
His attitude is like, screw the autographs just let me be one of the guys.. :)


OH! When he left on the MV he tried to take off in second gear, everyone, including him had to chuckel .

He seems like a pretty cool guy. If I had his money, I would have a ton of cars too.


Old cars are the best!!
