That word sassy - it haunts me. I keep getting the sassy thing.

What drives the creative person is that we see it all.

I always had one goal, and that was to be a real funny stand-up comic, and that's pretty much what I'm doing. And everything else is kind of like gravy - TV, movies.

It's not until you develop your own voice, your own persona onstage that you become your own comic, who you really are.

Now, I think the people who are still doing stand-up are doing it because they love stand-up.

I feel today's society is so judgmental.

I think the worst one [indian mascot] is the Cleveland Indians' Big Chief Wahoo. It's just a red face on a baseball with a big, toothy grin. It's the Sambo of all other offensive mascots. I have never seen a Native American smile that hard before, not even at a casino opening.
