R2D2 has gotten more work since “Star Wars” than Carrie Fisher

With Katrina, it's almost like the sequel that doesn't live up to the original. It's certainly a shocking event and a tragedy, but somehow as a big event it doesn't seem to carry as much weight with the public as 9/11 did.

My family originally lived in Brooklyn. Our first apartment was a little place above my father and uncle's hardware store in Coney Island. Now, don't get the impression that we were surrounded by merry-go-rounds, roller coasters and Ferris wheels. Nope, this was a little side street.

If the police ever try to pick me up, Michael Jackson told me I can hide out at his house.

I always try to avoid anything that has to do with my life.

I wanted to be a brain surgeon, but I had a bad habit of dropping things.

I think of Alan Thicke as Perry Como without the excitement.
