Gary Busey Apologizes to Ryan Seacrest

So you remember from yesterday, the whole Gary Busey kissing Jennifer Garner on the neck at the Oscars and being generally creepy to Ryan Seacrest. Well, today Gary called Ryan's morning radio show to apologize as only he can.

Well, what I wanted to do was when I first saw you working, I said, "Who is this guy?" And I said, "Oh God, this isn't going to work." And then you captured me. You are to me, when you're working, an innocent champion of honesty. Your heart has a way to embrace the truth in your delivery without looking like you are reading a script. Everything looks spontaneous. What spontaneity is—spontaneity comes from an invisible idea that is there before the creation began. And you have that naturally, so I just wanted to pay you a compliment. But I didn't know you were in the middle of an interview, I was just moving through there.

How creepy is that? Especially the part about how Ryan "captured" him and the whole thing about spontaneity was there before creation? Just to put things in perspective for younglings, in 1988 he crashed hard in a motorcycle accident. He wasn't wearing a helmet and his skull was fractured so doctors feared he might suffer permanent brain damage. I'm guessing the docs were right.
Here's a few more Gary-isms that came from the show this morning:

• "The truth requires no questions."
• "The word fan is an obsolete word to me. It means two thing: fantastic or fanatic. Or something that hangs on a ceiling or sits on a table and blows wind in your face."
• "And I know you must remember to chase and catch your dreams. If you don't, your imagination will live in empty spaces, and that is nowhere land."
• "Who's going to win American Idol? Oh, that's right. You're [Ryan] really good there with that Mr. Simon."
• "When you commit to making to film, you must commit 150 percent—with no distractions, no substance abuse. Always start every conversation with a compliment, consider other people's feelings first before you consider yours, because you're working with a family and a team on a set."
