Long Island - if you're from out of town, how would I describe it? Well, every girl in my neighborhood looked like Kenny G.

I'm always a big fan of if you approach somebody politely about something and you're not a nudge - you're just pretty honest and simple, my kind of philosophy is that I'm not afraid of 'no,' and that's way different than 'I won't take no for an answer.

There were very few women comics when I started out doing stand-up. But I always saw that as a great advantage.

I was over there in Hawaii. I was there on the big island. The 'Big Island' - that name cracks me up. First of all, it's not that big, so I'm pretty sure a guy came up with that name.

Some people have their marriages annulled, which means they never existed. Boy, talk about denial! What do you say when people see your wedding album? 'Oh that was just some play I was in.

I feel I've always got to keep my stand-up because I never want to lose it.

There are so many opportunities that I could've gotten before if I had just took a little more of a risk.
