It's been five years worth of planning and negotiating to bring this to a reality.

The one thing I could do was voices and impersonations and weird characters, and there was really no call for that, except on Saturday Night Live.

I could do John Wayne, Jack Benny, Jack Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson and entertain my friends. But I never seriously considered it as a career choice.

I benefit from the Mr. Potato Head syndrome. Put a wig and a nose and glasses on me, and I disappear.

I could never learn what I'm learning at college. They don't teach it there, because it can't be learned in that way.

I was 36, and I had decided to quit acting because it was so disappointing.
