First of all -- yes, this is my real hair and it's naturally this curly. There are some people who honestly think I went into a salon one day with a normal head of hair and said, "Can you screw it up real bad?", and then paid for it. I'm originally from Cocoa Beach, Florida... I now live in Orlando, Florida and Los Angeles, California. I fly back and forth almost weekly. I have so many frequent flyer miles, they should paint the planes orange! I guess this means I'm bi-coastal. As for the places I live, I chose them specifically because of both Disney Land and Disney World. That way, if I have company visiting, I can just send them to either park and tell them to go play with themselves. Depending on which coast, I switch the Mickey Mouse ears around from front to back or vice versa, kind of like the gangs do in L.A. Does this mean Mickey is bi-coastal as well? I would have to say my major comedy influences are Jonathan Winters, (you just look at him and have to laugh), and Robin Williams, (I'm in awe. I wish I was THAT funny ALL the time). Don't forget one of my favorites -- George Carlin...the MASTER! He put out an excellent book called "Brain Droppings", published by Hyperion. I highly recommend it. It's just brilliant. I also love Gary Shandling. I want to be like him when I grow up...IF I grow up. I first got to meet him on the Tonight Show. Great guy. I later did a part on his show as the "Unwanted Guest" on HBO's year-end roast. I've also made repeated appearances on Politically Incorrect. Bill Maher is another favorite. And of course what comedian doesn't wish his brain worked like Steven Wright's? As for other comedians I've appeared with, I recently did a new television special with Chris Rock. I really like working with Chris. In the television special I get to shoot him in the comedian gangster wars between west coast and east coast comics. (Note: This show has already aired.) That's pretty much me in a nutshell. Apart from my tattoo -- I have a small carrot tattooed on my ankle. I'm thinking of having "The Last Supper" done on my forehead. I might have Newt Gingrich done on my butt, but that would be redundant. C-ya!!!!!
