"The best kind of comedy to me is when you make people laugh at things they've never laughed at, and ..." — Bill Hicks

People in the U.K. share my bemusement with the United States that America doesn't share with itself. They have a sense of irony, which America doesn't have, seeing as it's being run by fundamentalists who take things literally.

I began working quite young, writing, growing, maturing, always striving to top myself - to make people laugh hard at things they know and believe deep in their hearts to be true.

I don't like anything in the mainstream and they don't like me.

And if I can take part in it by transforming my own consciousness, then someone else's, I'm happy to do it.
