I Had A Lump On My Face

When I Was On 'dallas,' I Was Known To Audiences Of The '80s. And Then When My Sons, Who Are In Their 30s Now, Were Going To College, 'dallas' Was The Cult Thing To Watch Because It Was Being Done On The Soap Channels, So A Whole New Generation Saw It. And Then I Have The Young Fans That Knew Me From 'step By Step' In The '90s.

I Worked With My Dad For 15 Years. I Apprenticed Under Him And Decided I Wanted To Become An Architect. So I Went To College For It And Then The Acting Bug Got Me.

I Come From An Alcoholic Irish Background - I Know Where I Was Going! But I Met My Wife And Started To Practise Buddhism, Which Is A Levelling Experience For Me, And There Hasn't Been A Day I've Missed In 40 Years. I Apply It To Everything - To My Work And Relationships. I Try To Be A Compassionate Person.

Good Luck Happens To People Who Work Hard For It. Sometimes People Just Fall Into The Honey Pot, But I've Consistently Strived To Create Whatever Good Fortune I Can Get In My Life - And Consistently Strive Just As Hard Not To Screw It Up Once I Have It!

I Personally Never Thought That 'dallas' Would Resurrect Itself Because I Didn't Think Anybody Knew How To Do It. And It Was Proven To Me On The Few Attempts That Were Made. The Movie That Was Going To Be Done, I Read That Script, It Was Atrocious. It Was Just Awful. And I Just Didn't Think Anybody Understood It Anymore.
