If he had wanted to, Dave Berry probably could have been a successful stand-up comedian.
Instead, he wrote a humor column. And wrote books. Lots and lots of books.
Over about a 20-year period, I think I interviewed Dave almost 20 times. 
Two of those interviews stand out, including the one you're about to hear. It was for his book Dave Barry Turns 40. I thought it was an appropriate interview to run, because tomorrow, July 3rd, is David's birthday.
