I had always loved music. I grew up listening to classic country Waylon Jennings Merle Haggard. My dad loved Vern Gosdin and Keith Whitley. So I kept going to class and started getting totally into playing guitar and teaching myself these songs.
My sister is totally my dad's daughter because she loves sports.
I sort of always had an inkling towards some kind of an art form. I grew up in a very small town and I just figure-skated. My dad played hockey and I was surrounded by sports but it wasn't quite doing it for me. I wasn't totally fulfilled and I did a lot of skating.
I am a very open social friendly person and when it comes to people approaching me and asking for an autograph I am totally cool with doing any of that. It's a lot of fun.
Everyone is different but I'm not standoffish at all. I'm not one of those people who prefer to write a note. I'll walk right up to you and ask you out! Even if the answer's no I'm totally cool with it.
I think working with Johnny Depp was very intimidating. It was my fault though. I mean he's a total cool nice nice guy but I was just so I don't know overpowered by his presence. Like he's a very mystic person. He's older so I never really warmed up around him. I was so stiff.
Now there is so much expertise and brainpower it's hard to be at the cutting edge of what's cool and not do something that's totally geeky.
It's pretty cool that people will pay for something even though they don't have to. It's totally different now to back in the day. Now you're paying for a record because you believe in the band. In the future that will be the only time people will pay for albums because there's some kind of connection.
Simon is cool. You know it's different if you ever see him around his mom. He acts totally different.
To me what I love about the draft is first you see the young men who are realizing their dreams that they've worked so hard for. That's a pretty cool thing. You saw the emotion from some of these guys the other day. And then the second thing is this total sense of hope and optimism. And I think that's great for everybody.
But acting is very much a profession that is you're hot one moment and not the next - and that is totally cool. I think that's what I find most fascinating and most exciting about it - is that it can be gone in a puff of smoke.
I love the song 'El Rey.' And for years I never knew what the song was totally about. It was something new for me. I'd never sung a song in Spanish before. Then I got the translation and saw what a really cool song it was.
My legs are really long and that's cool apparently but I'm totally klutzy. I mean I'm like Bambi. I fall all over myself because I can't control my arms and my really long legs.
Both conservatives and liberals watch 'Parks and Recreation ' and they each think the show is for them which is really cool. 'SNL' was totally different. It was exciting because everyone was paying attention. Political humor works when people know what you're talking about.
They're very uh you know I don't come from the suburbs and a jolly Disney type of lifestyle. I come from something totally different. And they're cool and bare minimum so it's not always a money issue for me.
My perfect guy wears converse is totally laid back and doesn't worry about being cool.
Computers make me totally blank out.
The waste of capital in proportion to the total capital in this country between 1800 and 1850 in the attempts which were made to establish means of communication and transportation was enormous.
Email instant messaging and cell phones give us fabulous communication ability but because we live and work in our own little worlds that communication is totally disorganized.
What's certain is that a totalitarian enclave like Cuba's can't continue to exist so change will definitely come there eventually.
Until we totally change the way we elect our leaders until we remove private money from public campaigns lying will be the de facto method of governance in this country.
Well I do think when there are more women that the tone of the conversation changes and also the goals of the conversation change. But it doesn't mean that the whole world would be a lot better if it were totally run by women. If you think that you've forgotten high school.
Nothing is so perfectly amusing as a total change of ideas.
People are always looking for the single magic bullet that will totally change everything. There is no single magic bullet.
I'm a geophysicist and all my earth science books when I was a student I had to give the wrong answer to get an A. We used to ridicule continental drift. It was something we laughed at. We learned of Marshall Kay's geosynclinal cycle which is a bunch of crap.
