athlete dudes growing hanging jokes miss telling trading
I was an athlete growing up and I miss that. I miss hanging out with dudes and making raunchy jokes and telling stories, trading details, you know? There's something I really miss about that.
bumps funnier harder walked works
The only way physical comedy works is if you don't see it coming. And the harder the fall, the funnier it is. You have to really take some shots, and I've walked away with some bumps and bruises.
concerned easier empathize primarily room somebody vanity
I primarily have had my career in comedy, and that is something that I have never been too concerned about because I know there is really no room for vanity in comedy. Comedy comes from pain and it is a lot easier to empathize with somebody who is out of shape.
commercial decided great offered role shock turn
I know this may come as a shock to most of you, but I've decided to quit acting. I will not be auditioning for anything anymore, and if I get offered something like a role in a movie or a commercial or something, I will graciously turn it down. It's been great, but its just not for me anymore.
likes stuff
You want to be with a girl who likes you for you. Just be yourself and forget all of the stuff you read in 'GQ' magazine.
constantly funny stopping
It's interesting - I always thought when I was doing more melodramatic stuff like 'Everwood' that the directors were constantly reeling me in and stopping me from being funny.
chances controlled found great
We controlled the game. We didn't have real great chances at the net, but still found a way to win.
came planning since
We've been planning to do something since we came (to Roseworth) in nineteen-ninety-six.
airplane cynical expansive fly land people places tv writers york
Most of the writers in TV are from L.A. or New York, and those are places where people are cynical and snarky. And they fly from L.A. to New York in an airplane over this vast, expansive land where people aren't snarky; they're a lot more like the 'Parks and Rec' characters.
casting happened met paid ten
My first in, my first break, was I met a director and got to talking with her, and she happened to be casting this movie that she had written. That was ten years ago. That got me to Hollywood. I got paid $700 bucks.
air bull close cold experience favorite hunt second smell sound splitting wild
My favorite animal to hunt is probably elk. There's nothing like the sound of a bugling bull splitting the cold air at first light. And that smell is unmistakable. Once you experience their musk in the wild there's no going back! A close second would be a varmint hunt.
control exceeded learning second shooting
I think they exceeded my expectations and their own. They're still learning what it's like to play high-school ball. But we're shooting for state. We're in second place right now, and we control our own destiny.
falling growing played
I was an athlete growing up. I was a wrestler, I played football, so I can take a fall. I actually wanted to be a stuntman when I was kid, so I would practice falling down the stairs. It's just something I like to do.

Gummi tarantulas and spiders are flying off the shelves, ... abduct your tastebuds.
