What a difference 14 years make

If back in 1993, you had said to me
“Mark Wahlberg will be nominated for an Academy Award some day”,
I would’ve said:

a) "Who?"
b) "The underwear guy?"
c) "Are you on drugs?"

But not:

"Oh, definitely, and it’ll be well deserved too."

Good for him.

Alan was in Little Miss Sunshine wasn't he? The ending had me in tears, I was laughing so hard!
But yeah, Markie Mark turned out to be a pretty good actor. His brother, formerly of New Kids on the Block, Donnie, isn't so bad either. Donnie was in HBO's Band of Brothers as well as Dreamcatchers. Pretty good for a former boy-bander.

Did you watch Boomtown? That had Donnie Wahlberg too and was a great show.

I remember Boomtown, it also had Bubba from Forrest Gump. I hated to see that go off the air.
