It Is The Unspoken Ethic Of All

I Was An Only Child. We Were So Poor, My Parents And I Had The Same Room.

There Were Really A Bunch Of Old, Old Magic Hobbyists At The Time, Some Of Them Who Actually Had Known [harry] Houdini. You Had To Be 14 To Go To These Meetings, And He Snuck Me In At 12. It Was Glorious.

I Went To Visit Frank Capra, One Of My Idols, And Did A Kind Of Judd Apatow Interview With Him. I Said, "i'd Like The Statue Of Liberty To Disappear, But I Want To Do It As A Lesson In Freedom, How Valuable Freedom Is And What The World Would Be Like Without Liberty." And Frank Capra Looked At Me And Said, "david, I Love Your Idea, But Here's What You're Going To Do. You're Going To Try And It's Not Going To Work; It's Not Going To Disappear." And I Said, "mr. Capra, I Can't Do That."

My Mother Was Really Loving And Wonderful And Tough As Hell.

When I Am On The Road And Heading To My Next Venue, I Think About My Audience.
