Well, I've been to Iraq twice now. I was in Baghdad in June and then north of Baghdad in November.

I've worked with a lot of really fine actors, both on stage and on screen. The level of their game lifts me up and brings the level of my game up to theirs. Always. It's like a constant upgrade.

While we can never do enough to show gratitude to our nation's defenders, we can always do a little more.

I save money when I'm working so that I never have to take a role simply to pay the bills.

But I've got more to learn, too. I don't feel like I'm done or I know it all.

So for, you know, for a good 20 years now I've been involved with veterans and soldiers and in support of them no matter what they're doing.

It's always been my dream to do a dance scene with Anthony Hopkins.
