Keep it real Jay, Dell dude

Jay Leno has 15 vintage Vincent motorcycles. This goes against my usual attitude (if you're wealthy buy whatever you want, be conspicuous I don't care) but in this case I think that's bullsh*t. Those bikes are too rare for him to hoard 15 of them. Take 2 and move on Jay. Let some other wealthy people have one. The Vincent bikes are classics made from 1924 to 1955 in England and are rare and highly prized. The Black Shadow and the Black Lightning are two famous models. They probably became famous in America for being the fastest production bikes of the time and also Hunter S Thompson wrote about them. Currently there is a Vincent "Black Shadow" on sale on Ebay for $45,000.

 

Which leads me to my next topic....

 

Whatever happened to the "Dude yer gettin a Dell" guy? He must be somewhere.

Quit being a hater. Leno can own as many of those things as he wants.

 

From Wiki:

 

Ben Curtis' career seems to have survived both the Dell campaign and the marijuana arrest incident. In the spring of 2004, Boca Raton, Florida-based AdSouth Partners hired Curtis to lead its marketing campaign for the launch of Gameznflix, an Internet video game and movie rental service. Regarding the marijuana incident, Curtis told an interviewer for the South Florida Business Journal, "I learned a lesson and that was the thing," said Curtis, then 23, and a senior at New York University. "I've been through that experience and I've come out of that a better person. I've learned what it means to be a role model and I have a second chance."

 

In February 2005, Curtis played the role of Christian, in an off-Broadway 16-show production of John Fisher's comedy Joy. [3][4][5] The play and his performance both received generally favorable reviews.

 

Curtis was featured on the companion DVD to Triumph the Insult Comic Dog's CD Come Poop With Me. On his segment, a visibly intoxicated Curtis confronted Subway spokesman Jared Fogle.

 

Ben was working as a waiter at Tortilla Flats in NYC in 2007.

 

Here's an article about his food service career.

Dude you're getting a quesadilla!

 

And a spokesman for Gameznflix? Damn if I'd known they had that idiot shilling for them maybe I would have realized the company sucked and not wasted a year dealing with their bullshit.
