Michael Ian Black Quotes:
Ocupation: Comedian
Life: b. August 12, 1971
Birthday: August 12
I don't think I was awake for much of my childhood. I did a lot of napping. This might have been a defensive measure against encroaching depression. Until about the age of eleven or twelve, I had zero interests other than trying to steal gumballs from supermarket gumball machines.
