“I like to go to the airport looking stylish - you never know who youll run into. Sometimes I have fans at the airports. I never want to be bummy looking.”
“I've known Alan Zweibel since 1975, and I've always had this sneaking suspicion that he might possess a sense of humor. After reading CLOTHING OPTIONAL, I'm almost sure he does.”
