If I were to just focus on stand-up, I could actually, paradoxically enough, be home way more, because I would leave on a Friday, go do a couple theaters Friday, Saturday, maybe Sunday, come home.
The Kentucky Fried Chicken corporation made a bobble head of me and sent it to my management. No card, nothing.
I had a romance novel inside me, but I paid three sailors to beat it out if me with steel pipes.
I grew up in such a featureless, personality-less suburb. There was nothing to push against.
I can't say that I ever abided nerd stereotypes: I was never alone or felt outcast.
I'm not familiar with the metric system.
I look pretty nondescript. I don't go out of my way to... I don't express my personality with my clothes, with my car or my, you know, house. I express with my personality; so as far as what I wear - I don't really care about that.
I remember, when 9/11 went down, my reaction was, 'Well, I've had it with humanity.' But I was wrong.

The apocalypse is coming, that's the one thing I like about George Bush, I really think he can get us into the ... apocalypse, like the BIBLICAL ... I really think he believes that he'll be the guy in the white hat. I think he's read the Stephen King novel The Stand a couple times, and he really thinks there's a dark man in the desert somewhere and he's gonna fight him or something.
Cheap liquor is a magic potion that can turn you into a puppet cowboy before it kills you.
People will find transformation and transcendence in a McDonald's hash brown if it's all they've got.
I've gotten very cynical and kind of anhedonic about all the things I have to do to get to do comedy: all the travel, hotels, and airports.
I'm grateful that I had that uphill battle for 10 years of going onstage and having nobody know who I was, because you have to win them over.
