Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch-Good Vibrations..
My cousin Sally told me that she didn't want me quoting myself anymore. I usually start every post of mine with my own quote. Well, today I decided to take her advice and go with someone elses'. Who better than Mark Wahlberg in his Funky Bunch days?
In an earlier post I talk about my favorite Mark Wahlberg fan at 7-11. I hadn't seen her in a while. Well, today she decided to bring her Mark Wahlberg loving self into 7-11, and we resumed our previous discussion about his career. She makes her way through the line, we exchange pleasantries, and she tells me this. "After we talked last time, I watched Boogie Night's and The Basketball Diaries for the first time. Those were great movies." When she first told me Mark Wahlberg was her favorite actor? I immediately thought she could be a candidate for the third great one, the fact she looks like a Victoria Secrets' model helps as well. Anyways, I had to throw in another tidbit about our favorite actor. So I told her this"
"You know how Mark Wahlberg got his big break?" She shakes her head no. "Boogie Night's was the film that got him started. Leonardo DiCaprio was originally slated to play Dirk Diggler, but he ended up passing so he could take the role in Titanic. He recommended Mark Wahlberg to the director, and the rest is history." She looks at me and says "You sure know a lot about Mark Wahlberg." My sister says that I have a man crush on him. Anyways, I told her this. "One of these days you and I are going to rent a bunch of his movies, and make a marathon out of it." She looks at me smiles and says "I don't think so:)"
One last thing before I end this post. The last few years, I've been pursuing a number of Organic business ideas. I'll be the first to admit, luck has not been on my side. The one trait I do possess? Persistence.
