Yes, we all live in California together at a beach house. We also maitain a closet in New York, and we live under a rock in Brighton, England. Before this year I never saw the rest of the Monkees, all the episodes were edited together so they never had to see me. Did you dig the episode with John Wayne? They all had fun without me. They used to get together and throw potato salad at each other, but it all got out of hand when Micky replaced it with seafood salad. Well, look how pretty someone made us look. See what an experienced archaeologist can do!"

"Well there's always a chance.Never say never. It isn't anything I find abhorrent. You don't have to kick a dead dog too many times before you find out it's dead. The fact that it may rekindle some life, the flesh may come back on it's bones and it may pant and jump in your lap and lick your face is not entirely out of the realm of possibility, but it is pretty far from the realm of possibiliy. And there's nothing in the past that has indicated that it's going to happen" (Thanks to Tia(Nezzychick) for this quote)
