In the week after 9/11, Jay's wife finally got to fly into the Burbank Airport. Jay pulled up to the curb but was told by. the Glendale officers he needed to move along (security was very tight). Before he left he asked if these officers had eaten, These officers had no place to buy food as the restaurants in the airport were closed. Jay came back with pizzas for all these officers.....Jay is the most understated thoughtful person. I know all this because I know one of the Glendale officers who was there.

I’ve met Jay a couple of times long ago when I was a student, he graciously gave us a tour of his garage. He wanted to rearrange some furniture so my classmate and I helped him move it around, afterwards he disappeared for a few minutes and came back with a tray of cokes and snacks for us, apologizing that he didn’t have anything else. we were students, no one special. He is the most polite, down to earth person. Funny thing, I’m a teacher now and my class exhibited their projects at the Makerfaire, Conaan O’Brien stopped by and spent half an hour speaking with them and genuinely inquiring about their projects, great guy, Another celebrity that hasn’t lost touch.

Meeting a celebrity doesn't make him a good guy....or his opinions 'right.' Jay Leno, another California brainwashed elitist. He is dead wrong on the economy....and of course everything seems 'fine' to him.....he is worth hundreds of millions and lives a lavish lifestyle with no concern about the cost of ANYTHING! He is far removed from his working class roots....sad to see him support a guy as corrupt as Joe Biden and his family of criminals. Leno is another shill for Leftists.

Let impeach Trump on collusion with Russia and for two years they study it on your money, but they drop it and impeach him on a phone call from 8 days earlier as if they knew it wasn't about accomplishing something that matters. Then Nancy Pelosi screams out "We'll impeach him twice! He'll be the first President to be impeached twice!" No talk about the crime. This ought to make Democrats think more about Democrats being wicked than Trump. Then charged wtih 97 crimes and innocent until proven guilty, but he does get guilty of evaluating his properties higher than what they are worth. By that logic all people owning anything are guilty for don't you list your house at more cause you can always lower the price to sell it? If it is a logically large purchase, as anything Trump owns in NYC would be a large price, you would have your own personal evaluation done. How about that? Democrats are stupid. Children don't need chemical castration. Ukraine has a border you care about so why don't you care about America's borders. Finally, children are beheaded and minors are fucked. So do you support Israel or what I just brought up from Palestine? Read Isaiah 14:28-31 and know Palestine whole and the whole world judged by fire, so think hard about your cause in Palestine even more than all the rest.

When we finished our meal, my son said I want to take a photo of him! I said go up to him and ask him first, before taking the photo. He walked out and I was watching him from inside waiting for finish paying our check, all of a sudden I saw Mr. Leno get up took my son's phone, gave it to one of his friends, stood by my son with his hand on his shoulder, and his friend took the photo. It was one of the nicest thing I had witnessed.

Three cars back, in a $20,000,000 McLaren F1 was a man that my whimpering wife and I noticed (how could you not recognize that chin!). Jay Leno put his 4 ways on, opened his door, got out of his car, and came to comfort me and my wife as Humphry ascends to the heavens. Jay ran back to his car to get his keys, seemingly to leave, but instead brought a moose plush toy for Humphry, before Humphry pushed out one good bark before visiting Jesus. I'll never forget the compassion Jay Leno showed to me and my wife in this trying moment!

Piers is a smug, pompous, arrogant schmuck. I love Jay, but he was kissing the left's ass. There is no way he can be a "fan" of biden. Biden is a corrupt, incompetent, racist, opportunistic, self serving establishment hack that goes against everything Jay seems to beleive in. Jay knows the media and Hollywood will not tolerate anyone speaking against their agenda! I really like Jay, but there is no way he is a leftist. I get it though, you have to play the game to survive.

I just love Jay Leno! He is truly a gentleman and genuine nice guy. I've always had great respect and affection for him....I remember when he was guest host for Carson on the Tonight Show and he was interviewing Jack Palance. Palance was talking about a movie he'd made with Kurt Russell and Sly Stallone....Palance didn't care for Stallone and went on and on about him. I could see by Jay's face that he was thinking this was the last show he'd co-host for Carson because Palance would not shut up no matter how Jay tried to change the conversation around. It was absolutely hilarious and probably the best episode of the Tonight Show I've ever seen and it trumped the Hugh Grant episode by a long shot...Bless You Jay, you've shown your love to the world, shared your talent with us and made your parents proud!

Jay Leno…we need more of him in the world. We grew up in the same Massachusetts town, both went to same Boston college …. But never met. When my mother passed away on 3.18.20, we buried her in the plot my parents purchased many years prior. While walking down the row to see who was buried near my mom, I saw that Jay’s parents are 6 graves sites down and his brother a few rows behind his parents. I know visit his parents grave when I visit my mom’s. Sometimes leaving flowers. It’s a relief to see him doing well after such a scary accident with such a humble and kind heart ❤️ Blessings to Jay and Mavis. I hope we get to meet one day back in Andover.
