I played ice hockey obsessively for 14 years of my life.
I wasn't some weird loner in school, but I definitely wasn't invited to any of the cool parties.
I think any time anybody sees the bad guy show emotion and you're not hitting the audience over the head, there's always a tinge of empathy for that individual.
'Catcher in the Rye' changed my life when I was a kid. I read it as I was a boy turning into a man, and I was so fascinated by it.
