INT. MARK’S LIVING ROOM – DAY<\/p>\n
Mark is looking out the window wistfully, almost dream like as the camera moves toward him. He becomes a aware of someone in the room with him and looks to the camera. He treats the camera as a person, not surprised to see you there standing there, he starts talking.<\/p>\n
MARK<\/p>\n
I am a dreamer… It is true, I come up with crazy ideas all the time. People who know me know when to just nod affirmatively and pat me on the head, saying, “Why that’s a wonderful idea Mark, you should do that.”<\/p>\n
Most of my dreams are called affectionately (by me) my “million dollar ideas”. I truly have no idea how many of these that I have had. Whether it is selling Mexican corn-on-the-cob at the state fair -or- the “Fight the Power” mobile coffee shop -or- selling leather mugs with dragons embossed on them at the Ren. Fest. -or- rubber grommets for repairing shower curtains -or- biblical memory verses for the shower, I have had a million million dollar ideas that would really take off if I could just find the investors for them. We would all become rich… or at least thousandaires, with any one of these ground-breaking ideas.<\/p>\n
Alas, sadly this is usually the point where the head patting comes in. It is my lot I suppose. It’s hard being an idea guy (dramatic pause and a sigh). People just are not visionary you see, they are far too comfortable in the critic’s chair.<\/p>\n
(Mark walks over to his desk in what was the dining area and grabs a manuscript off his desk) But you know what? The dream just cannot stop dreaming; (Mark taps the manuscript with the back of his free hand) I have yet another idea and this one will prove all the nay-sayers wrong once and for all!<\/p>\n
What is it this time, you ask? Well I cannot give away too many details, but let us just say that it is the beginnings of a screen play for a movie that will be the blockbuster of the year when it is released.<\/p>\n
Now do not think of messing up my “do” and wipe that patronizing look off your face because this is the real deal… you will see, when I accept my Ocsar for best screenplay while your sitting on the couch in your jammies munching popcorn saying, ” I knew he could do it.”, then you will see.<\/p>\n
(In the Schwarzenegger voice) Here me now, believe me later!<\/p>\n
Mark smile’s as he sits down and open’s his manuscript, grabs a pen and start’s writing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
