"I'm 42 and the age of a guy who has kids, so I guess I'm playing right where I'm supposed to be. I'm comfortable with that, but in the same breath I'd do something edgy. If someone came to me and offered me an edgy and funny story, then I'd do it."

Somebody took my actual physical presence away and substituted this, he had thought from time to time. Oh well, so it went."
