It just happened that the public happened to, uh, appreciate the satirical quality of these crazy things.

I didn't have any real art training, but when I was about twelve nad thirteen, another boy and I went to a sign painter's house every Friday night and took lessons.

Naturally, I'm conservative; I'm a Republican. I always was.

When I did sports cartoons, I used to uh, go to fights.

I didn't write because in the corps I took mining engineering of all things and, you know, they, they graduate a mining engineer as a sort of an illiterate.

Uh, I just had an operation last March which was rather serious and I'm recuperating now. I'm on a very bland diet. But, uh, I'm lucky, I was just lucky, that's all.

No matter how thin you slice it it's still baloney.
