thinking careers firsts
Barbara was actually Jeff Foxworthy's interior designer when we first met. So, not only was Jeff responsible for my success in my career, he also introduced me to the woman who I'm going to spend the rest of my life with, which, I think, makes us even.
real beer years
There were years when I was a beer and tequila guy, then I got real fat. And then I found that you could actually go on a diet and drink scotch. Then I got hooked on scotch, and if you get hooked on scotch, then everything else just tastes wrong.
cuban-cigars lasts ems
I've got a great cigar collection - it's actually not a collection, because that would imply I wasn't going to smoke every last one of 'em.
skins say-anything want
Anybody could say anything they want about me, and it literally never penetrates my skin.

It's something that's really fun to do. It's a family business.
team america turns
The hardest that I've laughed at a movie was probably Team America. I laughed 'til I thought I was just gonna throw up. I almost had to turn it off.
corporate
I don't do any corporate work.
humor people alcohol
People are saying that I'm an alcoholic, and that's not true, because I only drink when I work, and I'm a workaholic.
rumor clubs towns
I started selling out comedy clubs before I got to town with no advertising. I was selling out theaters just on the rumor that I was going to be there.

You wanna get the truth out of me, get me hammered.

Everybody I know is a joke writer.

If you kill someone in Texas, we'll kill ya back.
littles signatures wonderful
I did have a deal for a little while a cigar company that never really materialized that much, except that I ended up with 100 boxes of my own cigars with my signature on them. Which is great, they are wonderful cigars but they never really fulfilled out so now I'm out of it. I can sign up with somebody else or go pick a blend or whatever. I probably will, there is no sense in not doing it.
