I don't celebrate birthdays much, except for decade-wise. It's not a really big thing.

I don't do a lot of guest shots on television.

The only thing I haven't done as an actor, other than Thai puppet theater somewhere, is act on a Broadway stage.

Thinking fascinates me, and I probably spend too much time in my mind. My wife says that my perfect world is to be in the Suburban driving, with her next to me and the boys in the back seat and complete silence for two thousand miles.

I was a French Quarter rat from the moment I could get on a bus by myself and go to the French Quarter. I played music most of my early life and it just seemed that to entertain people was a really good thing to do.

I've seen more convincing wigs on William Shatner.

I love reading. I'm fortunate enough to have signed books by Faulkner, Steinbeck, Thomas Pynchon.
