But if they need someone else - like a goofy guy with bad hair who is just okay - then that's me. And finally, the other 2 percent who audition are geniuses that I could never touch.” IfsNeedsAgeGuyAsksHairGeniusPercentShotsAdvantageOkayCompetitionNineHeightDozenAuditionsGorgeousDimesGoofyBad Hair Author:Tom Hanks
