"I'm pleased because as a comic I live on the fringes of an extreme society. What could be better than satirizing this insanity. People are on edge, desperate and afraid.

I get to be their mouthpiece for their rage and fear! Tremendous fun."

My note book does not help me think, but it eases my crabbed heart.”
