I miss everything about Chicago, except January and February.

I like the fact that this kind of family has been seen in a movie a million times: teenage kids, the family is a bit strained and they don't have enough money, but in the background the guy used to be a Gene Simmons type.

I still like to listen to the people that I came of age on.

I think it had something to do with my love of music, especially rock music.

I messed around in high school, but I pretty much put it away until I did a television show in San Francisco.

A show that's been successful that been on a while, chances are it's going to stay that way. At least it's going to maintain some kind of standard. But when a show begins, there's no telling. Even after 13 shows or a whole year, you don't know what will become of it.

Good decisions don't make life easy, but they do make it easier.
