Personal Quote:
[on his pierced left ear] I have a lady friend who kept telling me I had to get my ear pierced. I said to her, 'If you only knew how boring it is to listen to you tell me I should get my ear pierced.' The other day I told her, 'If you only knew how boring it is to listen to people ask me why I got my ear pierced.' [Oakland Tribune, May 23, 1974] See more »Trivia:
