He is fluent in Spanish.

He is an avid mountain climber.

He will be training in New York City to be an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician).

I used to jog but the ice cubes kept coming out of my glass.

We're not trying to save the world, that is U2's job. We just want to save the 100 cities we will be playing. (On the Van Halen reunion in 2007)

You want a hero in the music world? James Brown. He brought a feeling to music without really using words. He's just famous for his sound.
