Former Tonight Show host Jay Leno can't catch a break after two back-to- back accidents. He was knocked off his motorcycle last week and follows a recent incident where he was severely burned when one of his antique automobiles erupted in flames. Leno revealed to the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Thursday he was 'clotheslined' by a wire in a parking lot that knocked him off his 1940 Indian motorcycle. The impact of the hit broke several bones, including the collarbone, ribs, and kneecaps. He said the accident happened on Jan. 17. Here's Leno's conversation with Las Vegas Review-Journal about what happened: That's the incident we know about. But there's another mishap, this month, which Leno disclosed in a phone chat Thursday. Referring to the November fire, I asked, "How are you doing, especially after the accident?" "It's so funny you should say that," said Leno, headlining for Encore Theater for the first time on Mar. 31, his first Vegas show since the November incident. "That was the first accident. OK? Then just last week, I got knocked off my motorcycle. So I've got a broken collarbone. I've got two broken ribs. I've got two cracked kneecaps." "Whoa," I said. "Whoa, Sir." "But I'm OK!" Leno said. "I'm OK, I'm working. I'm working this weekend." Leno specified the accident happened nine days earlier (or, Jan. 17), again as he was working on a vintage vehicle. He was testing a 1940 Indian motorcycle and noticed the scent of leaking gas (fuel lines have been unkind to Leno recently). "So I turned down a side street and cut through a parking lot, and unbeknownst to me, some guy had a wire strung across the parking lot but with no flag hanging from it," Leno said. "So, you know, I didn't see it until it was too late. It just clothesline me and, boom, knocked me off the bike. "The bike kept going, and you know how that works out." Under medical care, usually. He revealed he didn't want any press about this accident because the last one in November got so much press. "You know, after getting burned up, you get that one for free," Leno said. "After that, you're Harrison Ford, crashing airplanes. You just want to keep your head down (laughs)." Perhaps the two back-to-back accidents are a wake-up call for the 72yo comedian. Poster Comment: Jesus. Talk about bad luck.
Prepping for his return to the Strip in March, Leno is recovering from a fire in his garage in Los Angeles last November. He suffered second-degree burns over his upper body and part of his face while repairing the fuel line in a 1907 White Steam Car.
Leno said he hadn't said anything about the accident because of the massive amount of coverage from his November hospitalization and recovery.

One would think that maybe God is trying to tell him to slow down a little.

I always wondered why God helped idiots from Massachussetts...:)

It's a lot more likely "coincidence" than everybody dying from the clot- shots. The late great analog designer Bob Pease totaled his VW bug leaving the National Semiconductor parking lot after working late one night. The security guard had hung a chain across the exit. A little faster would have killed him.
Look what happens when a President gets elected in a year with a "0" at the end. 1840: William Henry Harrison (died in office) 1860: Abraham Lincoln (assassinated) 1880: James A. Garfield (assassinated) 1900: William McKinley (assassinated) 1920: Warren G. Harding (died in office) 1940: Franklin D. Roosevelt (died in office) 1960: John F. Kennedy (assassinated) 1980: Ronald Reagan (survived assassination attempt) 2000: George W. Bush And to think that we had two guys fighting it out in the courts to be the one elected in 2000. You might also be interested in this. Have a history teacher explain this if they can. Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost a child while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both Presidents were shot in the head. Now it gets really weird. Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson. Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939. Both assassins were known by their three names. Both names are composed of fifteen letters. Now hang on to your seat. Lincoln was shot at the theater named "Ford." Kennedy was shot in a car called "Lincoln" made by "Ford." Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials. And here's the "kicker" A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland. A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe. AND..................... Lincoln was shot in a theater and the assassin ran to a warehouse... Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and the assassin ran to a theater... “ On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron. ” ~ H. L. Mencken

Good to see you, Dad. You wouldn't believe what it took to get Dakkie out of bed.
Excommunicated? I would ask if it is time to go on the offensive but I know better :) “I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them.

Hey, Esso, let's give up this white supremacist bullshit and only listento rap from now on, what do you say?

In Greenville, South Carolina a few years ago the downtown library held a "Lincoln Symposium" -- basically a Lincoln love-fest with "experts" giving talks extolling his great virtue, etc. Several friends and I protested the event on the sidewalk outside. I held up a signs for passing motorists that said in big hand-painted letters GREENVILLE LIBRARY ABE LINCOLN
Want to hire a whore? I know where there is one, down the street!

WTF Strait? No burning buildings, police casualties? Folks might mistake you for white. There was an episode of "Homicide: Life on the Street" where a couple of Baltimore homicide detectives drove down to DC to discover a Chinese restaurant. TV Fiction, but still pretty damned funny.
