We also own a little boat and I'm like a kid with it. I take off early in the morning, fishing rod in tow, and just drift about the ocean all day.

For the amount of talent I had (and I couldn't dance, act, or tell a joke) I enjoyed a tremendous career.

People have always thought that I wasn't ambitious. They judged by appearances and were fooled. I was competitive. I wanted success and was willing to work for it.

That I can't relate to today's music or morals doesn't make either necessarily bad. Just different. I leave the judgements to others.

The bluest skies . . . are in Seattle.
