Personal Quote:
[about his school counselor experience] The guy was real concerned, he says, 'You know, Ben has a great many fantasies. He keeps telling me you're this guy in a cartoon, that you're the Cobra Commander on "G.I. Joe." Well? Doesn't that concern you?' I looked at him and said, 'But I am.' He looked at me like, 'Oh God, this guy's crazy too. He's telling his child he's a cartoon.'Trivia:
He comically scared a school counselor once while talking about Latta's son Ben. See more »Star Sign:
