When I was growing up, I actually went through, in New York City, blackouts when we had to close the windows and worry about air raids. I don't know whether or not those were realistic worries or not, but as a kid, when we all had to run around pulling down the drapes and turning the lights off; it was a very frightening experience.

I grew up in New York City. And I lived in the Bronx in a place called Parkchester.

I sympathize with the zombies and am not even sure they are villains. To me they are this earth-changing thing. God or the devil changed the rules, and dead people are not staying dead.

I work with kids, and I see certain things, so I realize now why my mother was so horrified and overprotective of everything that I watched.

I've kept all of my shirts that wore in the World Cup games, and I'll be giving them to my family to keep.
