Currently he is a model of safe driving techniques, but occasionally is subject to episodes of taxi driver flashback syndrome during which his driving is unpredictable. Larry has written for the television shows Saturday Night Live and Not Necessarily the News, for which he won two Writers Guild of America Awards. They are the coauthors of The Dog Ate My Resume and they live in Santa Monica, California.
