I met him once. He came into the office I was working at sometime around 1996/1997. He was one of the first celebrities I ever spoke more than two words with. I was surprised that he was just this chill dude, there to pick up something for his daughter. I recognised him of course, but yeah - other than the fact that he happened to be mildly famous, you'd never spot the difference between him and any of the other assorted parents who came by.

He has so many iconic lines. You could make the best soundboard from stuff he came out with.
