I had a series of little breaks. When I got back from... The tour, at one time, I had a bunch of pictures, you know, resumes, stapled them all together, and in desperation, I was sending them out to theaters. One guy at Great Advertising picked up my picture, called me in, I got the gig, and he set me up with commercial agents. And then... I couldn't not get them for some reason.

By that time, I was hanging out with a lot of real, real actors at a place up on the west side. Yeah. I got to hate myself for doing commercials. I was all screwed up and I was really getting into drinking at the time. And I resented doing commercials because other guys were doing what I thought was real work. Right. So I didn't care. I think that's why I got so many of them. Right, right, right.
