Forget what you've heard about Chuck Norris - Harrison Ford has been kicking butt on the big screen since the '70s. After the premiere of his new movie "Firewall" at the Angelika Film Center, Ford came out to answer questions from the audience about a variety of topics - and not without his famous sarcasm.On how he got started...

A. The first time I was in a movie studio somebody offered me a job, so that is dumb luck of the most gigantic proportion I've ever heard in my life. But then it took me 15 years to actually make a living in the profession.

When did you really first realize, "Man, I'm really fast?"I say my senior year of high school. I didn't start off fast; as a freshman, I ran like a 4.9, 5 flat in the 40. A lot of other people were fast since the eighth grade and were fast when they came to high school.

What do you run your 40 in now?

Actually, I got a little slower recently. I run like a 4.36, but when I graduated high school, I was at a 4.28. I was also only 167 pounds, too.

You said in a class once that you had a manta ray?

We Are Scientists' new album "With Love and Squalor" delivers infectious hooks through the entirety of this strong pop album - just don't dig too far below the surface.Every track is single-worthy and very radio friendly, with generic lyrics filtered through faux-Cure-style vocals. In fact, dance beats and a singer trying to be Robert Smith make WAS sound like The Killers' demo tapes before they discovered the synthesizer.

As Americans, we should cherish the rights protected by the First Amendment, but we should probably use a little discretion before exercising them. Free speech and the right to peaceably assemble are two of the most important rights protected by the First Amendment. Combined, they give us our right to protest.

Heimbuch said Iraq is different for journalists today because of the increased use of improvised explosive devices.

Black History Month, started in 1926 as "Negro History Week," was an initiative to get black history recognized and taught in school. Prior to this, prominent blacks had been left out of the history books or, when mentioned, were mentioned in order to exhibit their inferiority.Black History Month was an important and needed initiative. Americans were missing an important part of their historical roots and needed to learn about their past - a past that is not confined to white men.
