Interesting Jay Leno Article

[danf19]

I always thought Jay Leno was a pretty classy guy and I enjoy his writing in the Hagerty publication and other articles.
I'll say in advance that this is non card related.
Funny story, years ago, we took the kids to California for a trip. I wanted to meet Jay Leno so about 4 months before we left , I wrote him a letter asking if we could meet him and his cars. I really didn't think I'd get a response and we went on the trip and had a great time.
About 6 months after our trip, my phone was running low on battery so I plugged it in to charge and went outside to work around the house. When I came in there was a voice mail from an unlisted number. It was Jay Leno apologizing that he had just gotten my letter and he was sorry we couldn't meet.
Needless to say, I was pretty disappointed but thought that was a pretty nice thing to do. I kept the message for years and to this day, always try to carry my phone around, just in case !
Happy Labor Day,
Dan
