No freebies!

My boss and I are huge, longtime pro wrestling fans. (If you get why my author name is ‘Foley is Good!’ then you automatically rock!) As a break from stressful times here in the office, we talk about what’s going on with WWE and what we think will happen next. This last April my wife and I went to Wrestlemania, which featured The Rock, so we talked about him a lot

My boss told me, "You know what you should do as a joke? Tell your wife that you want to do one of those "freebie lists" where you are allowed to sleep with any 5 celebrities you pick, and then tell her your first choice is The Rock!"

I told him, "No! My first pick is Mick Foley!". Just kidding, I told him, "No! We’re not doing a ‘freebie list’!"

Why would a guy pass on what is pretty much the marriage lottery? Because for me it may be a one-in-a-billion chance at best of hooking up with a celebrity on my list, but my wife would have a very good chance

Sally used to be a manager at one of the hottest clubs in the Houston area. She started there as her part-time job in high school and worked her way up. So she actually knows celebrities and was in charge of their VIP areas and making sure their night went well

She knows Lil’ Wayne, she knows Tyrese, and various other artists. Including Cupid, and I’m sure everyone has done the Cupid Shuffle at some point in their life. Cupid himself taught her the dance, haha. She also knows athletes, like Vince Young (who was crazy popular back in those days).

But I’m not completely out of the game. I could whip out my cell phone and call…. Mattress Mac’s daughter… would that count as a local celebrity? Maybe? Damnit, who am I kidding…

moral of the story: "May the odds ever be in your favor". Only way that works for me is to have the odds absolutely at 0% with no freebie lists! 😛

Have a Nice Day!
