"  Denis Leary knows fires: His firefighter drama, Rescue Me, is now in its fifth season on FX. He also knows funny: His recent book, Why We Suck, tells us all how to stay fat, lazy, and stupid. And he knows family: He&amp;#039;s been married for 20 years and has two teenagers. Here, Denis discusses what else he knows \u2014 and what he&amp;#039;s still figuring out.  Why do you think firefighters are so cool? They&amp;#039;re men of raw bravery. Every time they punch in to the job, they&amp;#039;re on the front lines of a war, dealing with life and death. On the show we use real smoke and flames, but I could never be a firefighter in real life. I&amp;#039;m in awe of their courage.  Speaking of heroes, pick one: Superwoman or Wonder Woman. Or who strikes your fancy?  I&amp;#039;ve always had a thing for Catwoman. Michelle Pfeiffer or Halle Berry in tight leather pants, with the boots \u2014 I&amp;#039;m pretty good with either one. If you had to flee a burning building, what would you grab on your way out? My wife, my kids, and my dogs. What else could possibly be important? Though it&amp;#039;s possible that if it actually happened, I&amp;#039;d end up grabbing my copy of the official history of the Boston Red Sox. Or maybe a sandwich. Because I&amp;#039;m a guy. Who rescues you on a regular basis? My wife, Ann. In Hollywood, it&amp;#039;s easy to get distracted by the glitz and glamour, rather than focusing on the work itself, and Ann keeps me centered. Whenever I lose my focus, she helps me bring things right back to where they should be. How do you two keep the flame burning? If you want a long-term relationship that doesn&amp;#039;t require a lot of work, I say, get a dog. They love you no matter what. But when it comes to humans, there&amp;#039;s no secret; you really have to appreciate the person every single day. And Ann and I know how important it is to carve out time to be alone together. Tuesday is our night. Why We Suck identifies you as Dr. Denis Leary. Tell us, Doc, what&amp;#039;s your diagnosis on why men have trouble figuring out what women want? Men have three things in their head at all times: sex, sandwiches, and blowing stuff up. Women, on the other hand, have really complicated brains that are involved in so many levels of emotions and intellectual curiosity. We don&amp;#039;t match up. So ladies, if you want something, you have to spell it out for us. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
