Let's just say I can never be cast again after Ron Swanson. Then I have a life of theater and woodworking and my wife to look forward to, and that doesn't make me anything but very happy.

When I arrive in Los Angeles in the entertainment community, and I use implements like a shovel and a hammer, our society has distanced itself so far from working with its hands that those incredibly pedestrian skills are perceived as somehow being extraordinary.

I really bridled when Parks And Rec became popular and woodworking publications wanted me to do stuff with them.

If your shirt isn't tucked into your pants, then your pants are tucked into your shirt.

I'm obsessed with the Victorian era and the British Royal Navy... I'd love to play a troubled sailor or captain or a boatman on a three masted ship.

Just stand up for your principals and be loyal to your friends and family.
