Here are some quotes from his fans.
"Tony LeHoven is an extremely talented individual. He is punctual although he rarely tucks his shirt in. He has a wealth of creative energy but sometimes slurps his soup. He's a great composer, very original but sometimes other people don't seem to 'get it'. He's a good looking guy although he could stand to change his underwear more often" - Tony's mother.
"Tony has a pretty good row of front teeth. Lots of cavities from his youth but that seems to be O.K. now that he's brushing and flossing regularly. Tony, you are flossing right? His lower teeth are really crooked. I think his folks were trying to save some dough and only got braces for the top." - Tony's dentist, Myron Zaluckey.
"Tony is a bastard" - Tony's ex-girlfriend.
