Here I submit a garage better than Jay Leno's;

Gordon Murray's Garage!

I am fairly certain Jay has several garages. Hope he is well.

Hopefully his chin kept his nose from being burnt off....
(Seriously though... I had an incident with a 1970 VW Bug a few years ago. I was helping the neighbor kid get his grandfather's old car running.... At one point I was working on the fuel pump, and said "Ah HAH!
That's it! And the kid turned the key.... And the distributor, which was opened, arced, and a jet of 40 year old gas spurted all over me, and POOF!.
Lucky I knew to duck and roll, and the kid threw a blanket on top of me..... But I had burns on my arms, and forehead for a week or more. Probably should have gone to the hospital..... Burns are no joking mater, even for a comedian)

Had a guy who got burned in his apartment because he was rebuilding…..or something…..his motorcycle that he kept and worked on in his living room. Forgot to drain the gas tank. Big Harley. Ground floor of three floors. Heck of a fire. He got burned pretty good as well. The Harley didn’t survive. Apparently beer was involved.

At one point of time in the distant past we had both masts from my mate's Cheoy Lee Offshore 31 spend the winter in our rental house being refinished...upon exiting the kitchen you had make a decision on which side of the living room you wanted to be in...if you wanted to swap sides or go to bed your three options were return to kitchen, go down to back door end, or limbo...good times...

To my mind, Leno does the "richer than God" thing better than anyone.

Back at it Sunday night in Hermosa Beach. Leno has been an anchor at The Comedy and Magic Club for decades. He’s not my favorite comedian, but I do respect how hard he works.

A friend of mine built an ultralight airplane in his living room in Rankin Inlet. Look way up north to find that place.
