I love country music, but I find it very hard to take it seriously. I also think a lot of country music is sung with the tongue in cheek, so I do it tongue in cheek.

I, personally, have a lot of energy, so I don't see it as an immediate problem.

Iraq has lost 5 percent of its population, a number that in the U.S. would equal 14 million people.

I think that people taking drugs occasionally are great. I think there's nothing wrong with it. But if you do it the whole time, you don't produce as good things as you could.

People don't bother to check with anything anymore. They just like to speculate in print. We like fact-checking!

I don't really like using guns too much, you know, even for sport.

I prefer to live in a rented house. No ties. Nothing around my neck. Just the minimum kind of bare comforts of home.
