I think that sometimes kids use the show as a jumping off point for talking about things with their parents.

My high school was nothing like West Beverly High, let me tell you. I grew up in Fredericktown, Ohio.

When I was a kid, I was at a bowling alley and I ran into a soda machine. I still have the scar on my right eyebrow obviously.

There's a big difference between me and a real, legitimate working hand, or a world-champion rodeo cowboy. I play 'em, and I aspire to be like that, but those guys are tough.

When I was a kid, I just devoured TV 24 hours a day. Now that it's actually available 24 hours a day, I'm usually busy doing other stuff. But I do watch TV when I can.

I go four- wheeling in my truck. I also like to fish, cook, do stuff around my house. I even studied fencing for awhile.

I open to anything... just about anything.
