But then, I just decided to get off my lazy butt and take advantage of the L.A. weather.

Basically, what happened was, I had moved out to Los Angeles, I was pretty damn lazy and I put on some pounds.

People would see me on a Nickelodeon commercial, and I would hear about it the next day in school.

A girl came up to me in a bar and said she wanted to be my apple pie. I wish I'd said something cool, but I was stunned.

In order for American Pie to have worked, you have to have a character who, even while he is humping a pie, the audience still likes.

We all approached doing a sequel with great trepidation and skepticism.

We all had our reservations about possibly overdoing it but, you know, the script was great. Basically it stuck to the formula that worked for the first two movies, and for that reason I think this works as well.

I'm just glad I got to work with the likes of Spielberg.

But once I went for it, left my inhibitions aside and saw its eventual success, it made me much more comfortable and eager THIS time around to take it to a whole new level.

Stuff with a group, stuff where there are other people around, I'll try that.

I love playing Jim. I love working with this cast and the opportunity to come back and work with them again was just way too appealing for me. Also, I think this is a great way to wrap up the franchise.

Like anyone who goes to college, you're leaving a familiar surrounding and a comfortable environment and your friends and everything, and you're starting fresh. It can be pretty daunting.

Physical comedy is my favorite thing in the world to do.

But because it was able to balance that kind of humor with a sweet story and characters you really rooted for and also got across the girls' point of view, I've heard nothing but great things from younger and older females as well.

I've heard every pie joke in the book. I'm still waiting for an original one.

My position now, especially in this town, adds an element of skepticism with people you meet - especially girls. I mean, it becomes a lot more difficult.

I like to think what I bring to the table is kind of a sympathetic and endearing quality, even while I'm playing outcasts or characters that end up in outlandish situations.

I don't know if you'll see me jumping out of planes anytime soon.

When a house is being built which is to be made as strong as possible, the building takes place in fine weather and in calm, so that nothing may hinder the structure from acquiring the needed solidity.

All we need is a meteorologist who has once been soaked to the skin without ill effect. No one can write knowingly of the weather who walks bent over on wet days.

The weather here is gorgeous. It's mild and feels like it's in the eighties. The hot dog vendors got confused because of the weather and thought it was spring, so they accidentally changed the hot dog water in their carts.
