I think it's really cool how J. Lo's been able to balance an acting career and a music career. That's something I strive for.
Someone once told me that something they really liked about me was that they thought that I was really down to earth and not high-maintenance. I think that was cool. It's important to stay grounded.
Jazz took too much discipline. You have to come in at the right place which is different than me singing the blues where I can sing 'Oh baby ' if there's a pause in the melody. With jazz you better leave that space open or put in something real cool.
When I see my staff take a step back because I've lost my cool about something food-related I say never apologise for your standards. If someone doesn't meet them then you should explain that and that you want it changed. I want my staff to be like that too.
Even in high school I had friends that I didn't know were gay until years later. I'd find out on Facebook or something and be like 'Oh that explains some things ' or 'Wow no wonder they were so cool.'
I really wanted to do something positive on the Internet. I wanted to try to get young people talking about thinking about life's big questions-make it cool and OK to wonder about the heart the soul and free will and God and death and big topics like that big human topics.
My whole thing is that I want to explore why you read books what's the purpose of reading and maybe that it's not that cool to hate something just because it's popular.
The term 'geek' for me is like you having a passion interest in something that is unabashed and you don't care if people think it's not cool. You think it's cool and that's your thing.
It's cool to have parents and family who will always tell me the truth no matter what. They'll tell me if I'm doing something stupid!
Maybe that first gigantic deficit the Reaganites piled up was an accident just a combination of deluded 'supply side' tax cuts and a huge bag of good stuff for the Pentagon. But pretty quickly conservatives discovered that deficits when done correctly did something really cool: deficits defunded the Left.
When I was kid I remember playing 'Vogue' by Madonna over and over and over again. And ah you know something about the beat was really cool and Madonna visually was on TV all the time and I thought she was just so beautiful.
My friends are people who like building cool stuff. We always have this joke about people who want to just start companies without making something valuable. There's a lot of that in Silicon Valley.
If a guy is skilled at anything that's attractive. There's something very primal about that and sure it can be as simple as figuring out the tip quickly. It's really cool when a guy tips 20 percent quickly and effortlessly so that when the check comes he opens it and signs his name and done.
I think its so cool that you can pick up the guitar and create something that didn't exist 5 minutes ago. You can write something that no ones ever heard before. You have music at your fingertips.
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.
Sure climbing Mount Everest would be cool but that's something I would now like to do as a family. Big experiences like that I don't want to have on my own anymore. I want to share them.
I just hope that theaters remain. I think there's something very wonderful about getting into a dark room with a bunch of people. There's something cool about that. Brings us all together in one room where we can experience all those emotions.
