These are 10- to 12-foot (3- to 4-meter) waves. They can literally pile-drive you into the bottom. The longer it sits nearly stationary, the more problems it's going to cause in the long run.

It's rough and nasty out there. The ocean is like a washing machine on the agitation cycle.

If I get a script that's set in the jungle it goes to the bottom of the pile because I don't think the playgrounds are going to be very good there! I'm really aware of how lucky I am but I have the kind of job where I can bring my child to work.

It's hard to know which way to go when you get blindsided by something like this. It's literally one foot in front of the other right now. That's as far as you look.

It was good fishing. The waves were churning up a lot of sand on the bottom and we got pushed up against the reef a little bit. But all in all it was pretty good.

I think a lot has changed since 2000, and it's changed for the worse. The bottom line: We can't let it be close, because if they can cheat, they will.
