1. I think it's when people really don't listen and keep on talking.
2. To be able to sleep in a little later and get up to some fresh fruit and green tea with honey. I think that's a good start.
3. I didn't watch a lot of TV until about third grade. I think it might have been "The Dick Van Dyke Show." That and, like, "I Love Lucy," that's another one. That would be family-time schedule to watch that. We didn't watch TV back then like we do nowadays.
4. I'd like to take a trip to Italy and go to some cooking schools and go to Florence and see all the beautiful old art.

1. My biggest pet peeve is when people say "libery" instead of "library." There are two r's in library.
2. Sleeping in and coffee in the morning.
3. Probably "Pokemon." I was a Pokemon fan. I liked everything that went with the TV show: the games, the cards.
4. The U.K. Not really [a reason], just somewhere I've always wanted to go.

1. People who don't pay attention when they drive.
2. Coffee and a kiss from my girlfriend.
3. "Captain Planet," because they saved the earth. But "Ninja Turtles" is a close second.
4. Tahiti, just because I've never been there and it's a place I don't know much about.

1. My wife.

3. It was "Boy Meets World," because of Topanga. And my wife reminds me a lot of Topanga.
4. Germany, to see the Berlin Wall.
