My wife and I really, really like each other as well as love each other.

I don't like working in a studio, at all. I just prefer to be on location, rather than hearing the bells of the studio going off. It's like being in Las Vegas, where no one knows the time and there are no windows.

The only thing that may make me different from other people is I have passionate interests outside of work.
