I grew up in Los Angeles and always wished I'd spent a childhood in a far different place.

I happen to think nearly everybody - especially those one might find in the odd issue of 'People' magazine, including me - is frightfully boring, especially me. And Tom Cruise. Tom and I are alike in only this way.

I knew 'Mars Needs Moms! ' would be a movie seconds after the title came to mind. Similarly, I also knew that my daughter would be calling me a dork as a default term of endearment eventually.

It's not terribly dignified to have anyone seeing one laugh at one's own material.

I drew the last image ever of Opus at midnight while Puccini was playing and I got rather stupid. Thirty years. A bit like saying goodbye to a child - which is ironic because I was never, never sentimental about him as many of his fans were.

He comic page is dying; I didn't want to go with it.

I hate smoothies. Because they won't offer Firestone IPA beer as an ingredient.
