I've got a prostate the size of a honeydew and a head full of bad memories.
I shave without using shaving cream
I loved the idea of touching base with an audience.
During the Great Depression, when people laughed their worries disappeared. Audiences loved these funny men. I decided to become one.
We are even better looking on the small screen
Anne is very forgiving. She doesn't care about money, being rich, or clothes. We never argued about finances.
Anne hated the idea of putting me down in front of the audience.
I ask myself why I do it. Maybe it's to prove I'm still around. It takes a lot out of my body. I'm not an NBA player anymore. At my age, very few people can handle it.
I don't let my feelings out. The audience brings out the part of me that wants to be funny. Maybe I want to be like that very deep down.
