Some acting experience.

  

Now see here, Miller . . .

I got hooked on acting while working with Desert Players Community Theatre, in Neil Simon's "California Suite. I was Sidney, the gentleman from England. When I got a large audience reaction (laughter, thank God) to a funny line, it was like a drug. I don't have any clear photos of that. It didn't occur to me that I would later wish I did. While I enjoyed acting, I found that I was better at designing and building sets than I was at walking and talking on stage! The director for this show worked us hard, wanting two grown guys really angry at each other. My blood pressure went way up every time!
