More From David Duchovny

The books in mo and meggie's house were stacked under tables, on chairs, in the corners of the rooms. there where books in the kitchen and books in the lavatory. books on the tv set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. they welcomed meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. and sometimes you fall over them.
Book Fall Weather
I am a product of endless books. my father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. there were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...in the seemingly endless rainy afternoons i took volume after volume from the shelves. i had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.
Father Book Men
The last few years i became a lot more into sports. growing up, the sports i liked were independent sports, like skateboarding. i was really into skateboarding, and not necessarily team televised sports.
Sports Growing Up Team
Though all three men faced the same hardship, their differing perceptions of it appeared to be shaping their fates. louie and phil's hope displaced their fear and inspired them to work toward their survival, and each success renewed their physical and emotional vigor. mac's resignation seemed to paralyze him and the less he participated in their efforts to survive, the more he slipped. though he did the least, as the days passed, it was he who faded the most. louie and phil's optimism, and mac's hopelessness, were becoming self-fulfilling.
Fate Men Emotional
Phil robertson and his family are great citizens of the state of louisiana. the politically correct crowd is tolerant of all viewpoints, except those they disagree with. i don’t agree with quite a bit of stuff i read in magazine interviews or see on tv. in fact, come to think of it, i find a good bit of it offensive. but i also acknowledge that this is a free country and everyone is entitled to express their views. in fact, i remember when tv networks believed in the first amendment. it is a messed up situation when miley cyrus gets a laugh, and phil robertson gets suspended.
Country Thinking Views
For years, i never thought i needed a short game. finally i just decided to do something about it. i needed to get up and down from tough spots on the par-5s for my birdies. so i went to phil [rogers]. he's the best. for the last couple weeks, phil has been staying at my house and we've been practicing in the evening.

Couple Drug Trying
I'm not drunk onstage, although i've done that a couple of times when i was younger. it's partly just the way i talk - i talk like somebody in a rocking chair. i'm your 150-year-old grandmother.
Couple Grandmother Years
I was a teletype operator in the army, so that's where i learned to type. one day, i went downstairs to see if i could still type - i hadn't done it for four or five years after the war. so i typed out a page and i showed it to my wife and she said, "where did you get this?" i said i wrote it. "you wrote this?" it was something very funny. i went and wrote another page, another couple of pages, and by the time i was finished i had 13 little short stories, humorous short stories.
