dad kids thinking
I wanted to be an actress. I think it had a lot to do with being a kid and watching how every time my dad would stand up to talk people would applaud... that was pretty cool.
dad hey payment
When you're nearing 35, going, 'Hey Dad, I can't make these payments,' just isn't cool.
kids decision parent
My parents are always supportive of anything their kids do. They point out the pros and cons, but they let you make your own decisions, and when it's bad they stick by you.
self-confidence self
I have more self-confidence than I did when I was in my 20s.
morning thinking personality
The reporting I did was mostly entertainment or lifestyle. I took a very different approach than most reporters. I approached it more casually than you would think a reporter would. Now I'm a morning radio personality, and radio is really casual.
looks resumes
Actually, I'm 130, but 125 is what I put on my resume, because that's what I look like I weigh.
strong mean vikings
We're Norwegians. You know, the Vikings. My deadlift was 310 pounds. I mean, I was very, very strong - and I didn't take steroids. I did it all on my own.
girl years hay
I've always considered myself a physical person. I don't call myself a farm girl, but I did spend a lot of years shoveling manure and throwing hay, because I worked to pay most of my riding expenses.
college eight years
I started out pursuing an acting career out of college when I lived in Los Angeles. When I got an entry into broadcasting, I preferred it. I liked being me, rather than dressing up to be someone else. Now I'm 30 and doing a career of my own and have been in this career for eight years.
real real-friends who-your-friends-are
The biggest hurdle is figuring out who your friends are. Your real friends.
father rude president
How rude would I be, walking around and saying: 'Hello. I'm Eleanor Mondale. My father was vice president of the United States. Treat me differently.
men choices taste
I make bad choices. I've got such dodgy tastes in men.
men careers want
I didn't want to get married. What I knew of most men was something I didn't want any part of. I just wanted to work on my career.
home voting bills
Don't forget to vote for Bill Clinton and Al Gore. Stay home if you're voting for Dole.
