    He calls himself a 'committed New Yorker,' having never visited the Empire State Building or the Statue of Liberty.
    His Broadway performances in the comedies 'Arsenic and Old Lace,' 'Annie Get Your Gun' and 'Sly Fox' have all been to replace an original cast member.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He served on a sub in the U.S. Navy during World War II where he met Tony Curtis and formed a lasting friendship.
    He started as a vaudeville performer until TV phased out vaudeville, then switched mediums and found work.
