Southerner: What’s your favorite quote and why?

Southerner: Who is your favorite superhero and why?

Frizzell: “I have to say, Superman. Well, either Superman or Spiderman because I watched ‘Superman’ a lot when I was a kid. But, then Spiderman because it’s become kind of a new thing, and the people in my life really like Spiderman, so I’m a little nervous that if I don’t say Spiderman they will be a little mad (Mark).”
