People don’t yell nasty things at actors – they let them continue.
Obviously comedic styles do change.
No, I am a crier and if people ever saw me privately they would be shocked at what a bowl of mush I am underneath it all.
My life has changed. I’m not walking around any more wishing I wasn’t me, which was the case at one time.
My background is degradation and sloth, mostly.
Millions of people are married. I’ve never picked up a paper and seen a headline that says, Man Gets Married!
Let’s not forget, I got divorced.
It’s that I wasn’t suited to do the kind of comedy that these people were coming to hear – mainstream comedy.

If I was going onstage, of course I would talk about it. How could I not?
I’m not quite as anonymous as I was.
I’m anti-cheese in a salad.
Every relationship is just so tenuous and precarious.
Sure, being a reservist wasn’t as glamorous, but I was the one who had to look at myself in the mirror.

All of a sudden I discovered that I’m allergic to caviar. It was the perfect metaphor for my life. When I was only able to afford bad caviar, I could certainly eat my fill of it.
