One Thing I'm Grateful For, And Also Surprised And Excited About, Is That I Have A Place In The Community Of Comics Now. In A Real Way. And I Honor That. A Lot Of What I Do Is In Support Of The Community And Bringing New Talent - Talking To People That People Don't Know. And Defining Us As A Community.

God Doesn't Seem To Talk To People Like He Used To. Who's He Talking To Now? I Don't Know. Then I'm Walking Down The Street In Manhattan One Day, And I Realize Maybe It's Those Guys You See Walking Down The Street Talking To Themselves. You Know, Those Guys That Are Like, 'i Can't!

They Are Not Testing Comics For Drugs. If Our Job Is Dependent On That, There Would Be Three Working Comics In The Country, And Two Of Them Would Have Puppets.
