christianity lord rings
I tried to read the Bible, I did, but it always felt like a much less awesome Lord of the Rings.
long together hours
When I began doing stand-up, it took me a long time to get an hour's worth of material together.
thinking littles way
I was never really an impressionist. If there was somebody within my range, maybe I could work on it and do a little exaggeration of them - which I think is really the way to do an impression.
fun character people
It's kind of fun when you're playing characters that aren't quite on the up and up and people still like you.
funny-marriage calm neutering
Marriage is great. It'll calm you down - that and neutering.
weed stars expectations
When I first began doing TV pilots, my expectations were high. I didn't understand that world. So when 'Weeds' took off, I was so happy. Especially as I was just a guest star in the pilot. But once it got picked up, they made me a regular cast member.
school games people
I went to school for marketing and advertising, so I have a special interest in good and funny commercials and why they work and why they're funny - which is one of the reasons I, like many people, like watching the Super Bowl, besides the game.
vegan-food burgers vegetarian
There's so many vegetarian foods now that are available at the market . The same with drive-throughs. Now, a lot of them serve veggie burgers just like the restaurants are doing. So, it's really very easy.
clever thinking games
I think people really appreciate clever commercials, as do I. I think they're very entertaining. You just have to wade through all the garbage. That's one of the reasons people watch the Super Bowl. A lot of them watch it to see the commercials and not the actual game.
fun boys past
I loved working on 'Happy Gilmore' because I love to travel to new places and we got to go to British Columbia. Any Adam Sandler film is fun to work on because it is a reunion of the boys club of guys that have worked together in the past.
school europe two
I never really got into marketing. I went to school for it, but never pursued it once I got out. Instead, I went to Europe for about two months, just traveling around in youth hostels and Eurail trains with my friends.
weed jobs people
A whole generation of people that didn't know me from 'SNL' recognize me from 'Weeds' now. People recognize me once in a while and appreciate the work. It gets a little embarrassing but it's good. If you work as an accountant, you don't have people coming up to you in the streets saying, 'Hey, great job on tax statements!'
night long fans
When a show has been on for so long, you lose fans, you gain fans. I remember this from 'Saturday Night Live.'
new-york wall paper
I really like to read when I'm eating - 'The New York Times' or the 'Wall Street Journal,' paper version.
