I Got Kicked Out Of

I Think, My Generation, It's Hard To Have Hope When You Got A $700-trillion Derivatives Debt To Pay And A Bubble About To Explode And $500 Trillion Worth Of Gdp.

I Was Doing Stand Up Comedy When I Was 11, That's How I Got Started; Not Because I Wanted To Do Comedy, But Because We Were Broke, Living In Echo Park In Downtown Los Angeles, From 1986, I Saw The Rodney King Riots; My Parents Didn't Really Work. But I Wanted A New Backpack, That's How I Got Into This Business - I Wanted A New Backpack.

I Got To Grow Up In A Situation Where Drugs Were Demonic. To Watch Your Dad Go Through Heroin Withdrawal Is Something That Would Keep You From Doing Any Of That Yourself.

I'm Still In The Middle Of The Transition. I'm Still In Man-boy Mode. And That Won't Go Away For A While. But It's A Fun Time To Be In, Because It's Very Rare That People Get To Work Through This Time. It's Rare To See A John Cusack In Say Anything. It's Rare That You'd Find An Actor Right In The Cusp Of The Child-to Adult Transition, Just Got Through Puberty, Just Getting Into A Different Way Of Life. There's Few Movies Like That, And Few Roles Like That, So It's Going To Be Tough To Pick And Choose. I Guess The Goal Is Good People, Work With Good People.
