Yeah. I heard this on the way to work, when they mentioned they would be
"trading insults" on the preview blurb before the interview I thought that
was sort of jokey, but hoo boy - I can't believe they aired that on the
un-sexy dustparticle-ridden NPR airwaves. He was babbling and not really
making any sense half the time, and I just assumed he was wasted. But
apparently he was sober. When he busted out with the "If you're going to
welcome me with open arms, you've got to welcome me with open legs as well."
I couldn't believe it. Oh, and the best part of the
I've-slept-with-thousands-of-chicks part is I believe the number was Four
thousand, six hundred "..and three".
