唉，這回他仍然坐在公寓的餐桌旁邊。雖然明顯有些緊張，但他還是保持了鎮定。而當被問起他的那些動物時，他的臉馬上亮了起來。他說自己每天都和那些小動物們說話。“我有兩隻小鹿。Tibbs先生看起來像只羊，他有角。我還有一頭漂亮的駝羊，他的名字叫Louie。”他還喜歡那些來自異域的鳥兒，例如金剛鸚鵡、葵花鸚鵡和一隻巨大的美洲駝鳥。

“待在這兒。”他說，“我給你看樣東西。”他三步並作兩步地上樓到臥室去了。我知道這公寓裏除了我們倆沒別人，但我聽見他在說話。”

“喔，你在睡覺嗎？對不起……”幾秒種後，一條8英尺長的大蟒蛇端坐在了餐桌上。它正以驚人的速度沖著我的方向移動。

“這是Muscles。我專門訓練他來吃採訪人。”
 

MJ, Rolling Stone, February 17th 1983

Alas, he is still at the dining-room table in his condo. But despite the visible strain, he’s holding steady. And he brightens at a question about his animals. He says he talks to his menagerie every day.”I have two fawns. Mr. Tibbs looks like a ram; he’s got the horns. I’ve got a beautiful llama. His name is Louie.” He’s also into exotic birds like macaws, cockatoos and a giant rhea.

“Stay right there,” he says, “and I’ll show you something.” He takes the stairs to his bedroom two at a time. Though I know we are the only people in the apartment, I hear him talking.
“Aw, were you asleep? I’m sorry….”
Seconds later, an eight-foot boa constrictor is deposited on the dining-room table. He is moving in my direction at an alarming rate.
“This is Muscles. And I have trained him to eat interviewers.”
