Viewers figure, 'Uncle Willard doesn't know any more about the weather than I do.' They're right.

I'm Southern Baptist, not a meteorologist.

It's simply a tragedy that anyone today goes blind from glaucoma, when it's so unnecessary.

In psychology (okay, Twilight) they teach you about the notion of imprinting, and I think it applies here. I reverse-imprinted with athleticism. Ours is the great non-love story of my life.

I'm probably more character-driven than plot-driven. It's rare for me to attach myself to an idea for a story.

I do Pilates a lot. I don't do a lot of cardiovascular stuff.
