Ok, you get credit for the funniest comment yet. FYI, i was sucking on a lozenge to keep from getting dry mouth while interviewing my hero, but it does sound obnoxious, I have to agree.

as though they would fall out if he didnt.

OK, I confess. The whole gum-sucking, lip smacling thisng going on with me was because I was so nervous interviewing my design hero that I kept popping Ricola's in my mouth to keep it from becoming as dry as dirt.

Very inciteful. I was making it up as I went along. Inspite of their popularity, people like Larry King are always caught scanning at their notes for the next question and never listening to their guests answers. I'm just an amateur but I thought spontnaeity would work better for me than a script or a pile of note cards. Thanks for watching. It's all about the genious that was Paul Rand, not me.

I confess, I designed that "awesome" bush-league background. Hey, it was public access being recorded in the studio reserved for the real news and weather and we couldnt do anything to the walls, so I cut out some colored foamcoare and stuck it in the black wall with velcro. As long as Paul didnt puke, so I guess I felt it was OK.

I have to agree about my hair at the time. There are a lot of "do-overs" I could wish for in my life. As far as my own design credentials, apparently they were good enough for TIME Magazine who hired me to design 5 of their covers in the early 70s, and the U.S. Government who hired me to design a commemorative Postage stamp. I was even invited to do an Easter Egg for the White House. Go Figure. Even my father told me that no one would ever hire me with "hair like that". Thanks for watching.
