I'm not interested in going after a part. I think if someone wants me for a part and approaches me then I'll take it on a case-by-case basis and see what that part is.

Much of my youth was spent in the parking lot or inside a Dunkin' Donuts.

I've always dreamed of having a year-round haunted house.

I missed being on great songs.
