I did a few more plays, and then I went to L.A., because I knew I could get a coaching job there.

I thought I'd gone to heaven, because I grew up watching Roy and Gene Autry

And about in the late '80s, I got kind of burned out a little bit.

I figured my body always would be able to repair itself. I think all of us believe that - until you begin to age and get hit with deteriorating joints.

I'm from Middlesboro, Ky., a little town on the Tennessee and Virginia border.

I have twin boys, 12, and a daughter, 17.

I just turned 66, and I'm starting to work again.
