Dane Cook

When people refer to 'Back in the Day,' it was a Wednesday. Just a little fun fact for you.

People know I have a good time on stage. I love my life. I love my job.

You've gotta share what's going on in your mind.

I didn't want to be famous. I just wanted to earn enough money to have a nice life and enjoy acting.

Luckily there were no venomous snakes around Hoosick, N.Y., so I amassed quite a collection of milk snakes, garters, ribbons and ring-necked snakes.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.
