I found that life for me gets a lot more serious as you get older. You start off young and happy and smiling and "Wooo! I'm having fun!"

We have big hopes in the world that we can again love America for what it is.

It's so funny, because right now I'm very tired and my brains a little dead, I tend to get very focused and serious. So, I'm probably coming off a lot more like Scully right now.
