Magician prefers AC sand over Vegas desert sand"I've been doing this for 33 years and because I came out of the comedy clubs I'm constantly writing material, so I've got hours and hours of material I can use, depending on the audience," he explains.
When there aren't kids in the house, Kozak will venture into mature territory, but only after he gets the blessings to get a little risque from the audience.
"I'm kind of old school about that," says the former Navy cryptographer, who also is an accomplished artist and plays a pretty mean cello.
Kozak, who picked up magic from reading a book while on guard duty in the Navy, began his career working comedy clubs in Pittsburgh with a couple of other up-and-coming young funnymen. They were Dennis Miller, who has done rather well for himself, and Michael Keaton, who turned out to be a much better actor than he did a stand-up.
"I've got sand in my shoes," he says, making it clear he prefers the beach sand of the Jersey Shore to the desert sand of Nevada.

One situation involved a young man
He was the ocean and I was the sand
He stole my heart like a thief in the night
Some castles made of sand, melts into the sea, eventually ....
