I'm looking out for myself, but I'm looking out for my dad, too.

I know I'm 25 now, but there's still that little lad inside me who likes his dad there to see him.

My dad knows the business, and he tells me I've got to do what's best for me.

Although my dad Harry is the manager of West Ham, we get on very well.

At 18, I guarded the parking lot at the Catholic church bingos. Now my dad made sure I could take care of myself. I carried a Smith and Wesson 357 magnum.

My dad was a golden gloves boxer in the Marine Corps, then a deputy sheriff. My mom worked as an office assistant.

Comedy was why I got into acting the first place. Peter Sellers was a huge influence on my wanting to act. I grew up with him and found him hysterical. The Pink Panther films were an inspiration, from my earliest childhood days, when I was watching them with my brother and my dad.

I remember once giving my dad some drawings and writings and said, 'If you could just give these to the publisher, that would be great.' And I was about five!

My dad was an engineer, and he became the CEO of Chevron. His was an engineer's mind-set: Everything's kind of a problem how do you approach the problem?

My dad was a carpenter and I would work with him during the summer and umpire on the nights I wasn't playing.
