The drink? Yes I've had tough times in my life especially the last year regarding my ex-wife my kids I nearly broke my neck I was on death row with pneumonia.

I lost my mother who suffered from Alzheimer's disease and we had to relocate my dad after 58 years in the family home. That was tough.

That's a tough question I've been acting since I was 10. My dad was an entrepreneur so I guess something along those lines. I wouldn't want a 9-5 job.

My dad was a Marine. He was one of the Montford Point Marines. Those are the equivalent of the Tuskegee Airmen for Marines. He's a tough tough guy. When I was 15 we had a fight and I didn't speak to him for 10 years.

It was tough at the time but when I was younger my Dad. I would say my Dad because without him I wouldn't have been here. I mean it was tough for me because he was really demanding. With him it was never enough you know anything I did was never enough.

My dad read the Bible ten times and I want to do it in my lifetime. But it's definitely tough getting through.

People who build family businesses are not classically trained. They have to deal with an enormous amount of politics. You think corporate politics are tough? Go work for your dad or your mom.

My dad is like a cactus - introverted and tough. I'm a people person like my mom but I got my competitiveness from my dad. He came to this country from Belarus with nothing and built a real business. He's my hero for giving me that need to run a business and for having enormous confidence in me.

The golden child may be the oldest one unless it's the youngest. It may be the toughest one unless it's the most sensitive. It's not even necessary that Mom and Dad have the same favorite - and typically they don't.

If you set as your goal to roll back the size of government you have an obligation to answer the tough questions and show real courage not just appeal to ideology. Treat the voters like adults.
