I have four children and nine grandchildren. I'm presently wearing out my second wife.

I try to keep my mind active. I'm a solitaire and puzzle addict. I exercise religiously. I don't do many things religiously and I've taken up golf to have something to do when I have nothing to do.

When I was a teenager, I began to settle into school because I'd discovered the extracurricular activities that interested me: music and theater.

My parents were working in a hospital in Memphis. But I didn't live there for any length of time that I remember. The first thing I remember is the town in Mississippi that I live in now, Charleston.

I don't need any more press. I get enough when I work, but environmental causes is one place where you can get me to open my mouth. And put my foot in it if necessary. I think the only thing I do that gives me any bragging rights in terms of energy conservation is sailing. Just using wind power.

When I was doing theater, I was very successful at believing that I was great, God's gift to the theater.

There is no such thing as homophobia. It is not a fear. It is you being an asshole.
