"Question number one. 'Did you pack your bags yourself?' No. Carrot Top packed my bags. He and Martha Stewart and Florence Henderson came over to the house last night, fixed me a lovely lobster newburg, gave me a full body massage with sacred oils from India, performed a 4 way around the world and then they packed my bags. Next question."
