(Continued from Page 2)

I have never smoked a cigarette.
I have never smoked dope.
I have never done cocaine.
I would not put anything—
Allow anybody to put anything—
In my body
That's going to be harmful to me.
That's who I am.

"Headaches"  

Kids come to my house and work out.
I invite them to come work out.
The littler kids,
I try to get them to sign a waiver
In case a bat comes out of my hand, or a ball.
We've experienced that.
That's headaches.
