Here is a little trivia about Leno, who I pretty much like as long as he doesn't make awful jokes about Bush. My husband is a corporate/charter pilot. Last night he flew out of Van Nuys to Portland (where I live) and turns he and his co-pilot brought David Mamet to Portland for a lecture. Anyway, we all had dinner together and the co-pilot told me that Leno will take a jet from Van Nuys to the Orange County airport. A 10 minute flight. We thought that was pretty ridiculous.

/1/ He can afford it.

/2/ He keeps well paid pilots and technicians etc employed and feeding their families.

(It beats stacking gold bars in a vault.)

Not to me. There is nothing like taking off or landing in a plane. A great natural high. No pun intended.
