LARRY KING: "Not really."

MICHAEL JACKSON: "C'mon, Larry. You of all people! A couple of big hets like us, guys who have had more chicks than most poor bastards out there dream about-I mean, notches on my bedpost? You should have seen the look on Macaulay Culkin's face when he saw them all."

LARRY KING: "All celebrities go through that, I guess."

MICHAEL JACKSON: "And what's worse, that caller didn't even know that I don't live in Santa Maria. If he really wanted to come to Neverland Ranch, he'd have to take the bus to Los Olivos
