I'd consider myself a flailing comedy writer.
You never can take for granted that you have a job.
Every job is an opportunity to be a better person.
I only play projects with weird interpretations of presidents.
You never know when you'll have a bad idea for a worse joke.
Maybe I'm naive, but I subscribe to the idea that nobody is actually making strategic decisions about their career. Trying to do that would be like playing three-card monte on Canal Street.
