When I'm working, I'm very purposeful and everything else gets out of focus. Something I've had to work on together with my wife is how to acknowledge each other in the midst of this and keep the relationship going.

As far as 3-D goes, I don't know if that will stay very long because things are moving so rapidly.

I kind of quit surfing when I got out of high school, but then a few years ago I started to take it up again. I'm not an expert by any means, but it's so wonderful to get out in the ocean and get a different perspective on things.

Public charities, foodbanks and church pantries are doing more than ever before, but they can't keep up with the need. We can never end hunger only through the wonderful work of local charities. Like other Western democracies, we must end our national problem of hunger through national and political leadership. Charity is nice for some things, but not as a way to feed a nation. We don't protect our national security through charity, and we shouldn't protect our families and children that way either.

All of this high-tech stuff is supposed to set us free and make life easier. To me, it makes it more difficult and demanding.

I used to read comics when I was a kid.

I don't think I ever went down that movie star path. I always enjoy taking a 90-degree turn from the last thing I did.
