en I'm swallowing hard. I'm really trying to fathom how in this day in age it can even be said. This is not something we're going to take lightly. It's a very emotional subject.

en On one hand I'll stand up there and think I'm a pretty good storyteller but it has everything to do with the audience. Invariably, I get people telling me that I should do stand-up. Stand-ups generate their own material, but I'm up there answering questions and they lob me softballs.
