The local music community here was dying for a place to record, so we started doing acoustic, folk and bluegrass and then did rock projects for other bands, as well as for my son Tal and my own work.

'CLUE' is a spin on the classic board game. It uses the original characters and weapons, but it goes even further in depth than the classic who-kills-who idea.

All problems in Computer Science can be solved by another level of indirection.

I got good grades in math, but I never really enjoyed it. My favorite part of math was algebra, but geometry was the worst.

I share something in common with Norman Rockwell and, for that matter, with Walt Disney. In that I really like to make people happy.

Theater has always been something that I've had an interest in, but I was never a devoted fanatic theater-goer.

Paul Haggis, who's now a big movie guy, cast me as a lawyer in 'Family Law.' When that series ended, I thought that I would be going on more auditions and booking more jobs, but everything just came to a screeching halt.

Hunger and fear are the only realities in dog life: an empty stomach makes a fierce dog.

The guys in Kiss use some make up too so at first it was exiting. I've almost stopped using make-up nowadays.

When life is too easy for us, we must beware or we may not be ready to meet the blows which sooner or later come to everyone, rich or poor.

There are comedians that I like. I think a lot of it, you just figure out on your own. It's definitely one of those things that you get good at by doing it a lot. But I like Jim Gaffigan. Patton Oswalt. Janeane Garofalo.

Hibernation is a covert preparation for a more overt action.

Children are amazingly adaptable. What would be grotesquely abnormal became my normality in the prisoner of war camps. It became routine for me to line up three times a day to eat lousy food in a noisy mess hall. It became normal for me to go with my father to bathe in a mass shower.
