I am currently watching Leno and there was just a skit on a game where you steal gas and it said its celebrity endorsed and it showed Jay stealing gas from a black c6 with red interior, im sure it was his personal car...just thought it was pretty cool

Thanks for the heads-up . . it's not on here for another hour and a half.

I know it's a gag . . but I sometimes wish they wouldn't legitimize stuff like that . . . hey, I retired from an oil company so maybe I'm alittle touchy . . . .

Wow, bad timing. Local newscast ran a story tonight of a convenience store clerk that was almost killed by a woman that drove off after pumping $100.00 of petro into her SUV. The store clerk received a head concussion and bruised hip after being run over by the SUV. All over $100.00 worth of gas. I hope the store clerk didn’t see Leno’s show this evening.

I caught that. I used the DVR to rewind it. It was definitely a black C6 he was poking around. I'd have to assume that is his new C6R type street ride.

Yes, a lot of armed guards can be bought with profits of $40 billion.
