Val Venis : I don't know exactly for sure, but I think it's a little over 300 days we're on the road.

HTW : What's the longest stretch you get to go home and relax ?

Val Venis : It changes all the time, I'd say approximately 4 or 5 days at home then you have anywhere from 5-15 days on the
road.  So it's a stretch.

HTW : Is there anything you bring with you on the road that makes you life easier ?

Val Venis : Actually I use a cell phone, a Skytel pager, I got my little Compaq computer thing that holds phone numbers it's like
an organizer, and I just finished buying my laptop Compaq Presario 1235.  I'm having a hell of a time with that thing, that thing
is great, I love it, it's fantastic.

HTW : Are you hooked into the Internet?

Val Venis : I most certainly am.  The one concern that I have with laptops is, I guess with all computers is, I just finished buying
my laptop and it's like a 266 MHz I think it is, and I thought this was great, it's fantastic and I'm having a ball with it.  All of a
sudden I'm looking through the newspaper and I'm seeing ones with over 300 MHz now, and I'm like, I just finished buying this
thing a couple of months ago and it was the highest you could buy.  It's just unreal, I'm just blown away it how fast things
change.  It's unreal, but yeah laptops are great, I'm having a ball with it.

HTW : Are you in the upcoming WWF Attitude video game?

Val Venis : From Acclaim?

HTW : Yeah.

Val Venis :  Yes I am, that thing I'm looking forward to, that thing should be a heck of a lot of fun.

HTW : What input do the wrestlers have in the finished game? Do you guys have a lot of say?

Val Venis : Yeah, they asked us if we have any special moves we do on a consistent basis.  I told them I do the money shot
from the top rope, I do the double knee with the Russian leg sweep, do the hip swirl, there is all kinds of moves that we do on
a consistent basis that they are actually going to put in the game.  I think it should be a lot of fun.

HTW : Are you a gamer yourself? Do you play games?

Val Venis : I used to years ago back in high school, I haven't played too much other than "NBA Hang Time" that I used to play
when I was down in Puerto Rico there all the time on my free time.  Other than that I haven't played that much games in the last
few years, but definitely when the wrestling game comes out with me on it ( laugh ), you know I'm all about that.

HTW : Is there anything else that you can think of that would make life on the road easier a portable DVD or something ?

Val Venis : I think the thing that really made my life easier is my laptop, because I have a political news letter that I used to just
write and have someone print it up for me.  Now I can actually create my news letter on my laptop, using Microsoft Works,
and all those office type programs.  It's made life a lot easier, a heck of a lot easier.

HTW : Well thanks a lot for your time.  Nice meeting you.

Val Venis : No Problem.  Nice meeting you too.
