Why he might be annoying:

    There was an urban legend that Clint Howard played Cha-ka.
    In ‘Before They Were Rock Stars,’ VH-1 claimed that Sugar Ray guitarist Rodney Sheppard had been Cha-ka.
    His first name was spelled wrong (with only one ‘l’) in the ‘Land of the Lost’ credits.
    His only movie role was in a Roger Corman teen exploitation comedy titled ‘Beach Balls.’ (1988)
    Although he loved acting, he hated auditioning: ‘It’s so fraught with rejection.’

Why he might not be annoying:

    He earned a karate black belt at age nine.
    Chuck Norris was his karate instructor.
    During an appearance on The Tonight Show, he flipped Johnny Carson.
    After leaving show biz, he worked as a paralegal and a litigation support manager for a Los Angeles law firm.
