It's Weh-geh.

I used to go hang out on the set of Night Court when I had time in L.A.,
which was always fun.  With one exception, the cast was a terrific group of
people.  And the exception disappeared when he wasn't needed, so that wasn't
really an issue.  Tall guy, no hair.

Harry even introduced me to Mel Torme, who was doing one of his guest spots
while I was visiting.  They actually didn't know each other before Mel was
written into the script, but they became good friends as a result.

I never laughed so hard, so long, as when Harry and I did a live chat on
CompuServe, from his trailer.  One of the actors had given him a belated
birthday gift of Dom Perignon, which we drank out of coffee cups while doing
the chat.  Harry doesn't talk much about it, but he's severely dyslexic...
so I did the typing.  He's a big fan of computers, Macs in particular,
because he never really learned to read until he got one.  Faked his way
through high school, he says.  He still doesn't read a lot, but loves comic
books, and does some writing for television and films.  And he is every bit
as funny and nice a person as the characters he played.

It's true, but I also have experiences that should remain non-famous, lest
they render me infamous.
