computer grew grew-up
I'm named after a computer and grew up really interested in them.
actors benefits illusion
I've always said that I benefit, as an actor, from not having the illusion of security.
enjoy espionage shows
Mainly, when I go see a show, unfortunately it's more industrial espionage than it is going to actually enjoy a show.
librarian laura admire
I admire Laura Bush because she's the only librarian who would marry an illiterate.
kids support stills
Anyone who still supports George Bush would still let Michael Jackson babysit their kids.
artist dust people
The pop musicians often leave meaning in the dust and substitute it for cartoons. The deeper artists - the grunge artists in the world and the emoticon people - tend to leave all of the happiness out of life like it just doesn't exist.
mean commitment rights
If you are for freedom and equal rights, which we hear a lot of talk about these days, then you have to include the LGBTQ community in that. And if you're not willing to put your time where your mouth is, then I don't know quite what you mean by commitment in your life.
running growing-up kids
Growing up in Kentucky, I used to hang out with four running buddies as a kid - 6, 10, and 11 years old. Two of them would later come out, and so 50 percent of my friends as a kid were gay.
years
Ive been doing stand-up since I was 15 years old.
tenacity ifs
If I have anything, it's tenacity.
christian redneck lions
Jerry Springer' is just kind of the chubby, redneck version of throwing Christians to the lions.
dream sorry reality
Most 'reality' shows aren't reality at all. They're game shows with no prize. Like 'Rock of Love.' His aren't genuine feelings. Then again, Bob Barker didn't really care whether or not you won the toaster. Sorry to shatter everyone's dreams.
money time
It's better to waste money, than it is to waste time. You can always get more money.
crowd heartbeat shift
Vegas has the Whitman's Sampler of audiences. They come from all different places, so you have to do some crowd psychology. You have to find the heartbeat of the room. It doesn't shift my jokes, but it shifts my timing and my attention.
