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.

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 was something of a prankster. One time I put a ski mask on my head and used a fake gun on the school secretary so that I could get some of my friends out of detention.

I open to anything... just about anything.

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

It's hard and sometimes it's scary. It still amazes my mother. I went home for Christmas one year and there were fans all over the front lawn, hoping to see me.

I'm not much of a matchmaker. I think people have to make their own choices and mistakes and all that stuff.
