This is the one where I date a guy on AMW.
Posted July 30th, 2009 by Mike Lawson

I told Daniel this story this morning, and it reminded me that it was a funny story to tell to people.
I dated a guy that was on America’s Most Wanted.
Don’t judge me. He wasn’t a criminal. He wasn’t even wrongly accused. He was an actor that played a criminal in one of the poorly produced reenactments.
For some reason I get a huge kick out of telling people that my ex was on this show, and watching their reactions.
Struggling actors (like car salesmen) don’t make great life partners – they have one good month and they have to sail on that paycheck until the next wind gust comes and pushes them forward. When I was with David (the non-criminal from America’s Most Wanted) he was living off money he made from a McDonalds commercial a few years prior.

Interesting. Two posts in a row are about someone named Castro.

Wow! I have a love/hate relationship with dramatic reenactments! Sometimes they’re SO bad and cheesy. Wait, they ALWAYS are. Still, it’s cool to see how things went down (or so they think).

At least you’ve experienced dating one. Don’t you think it is a great experience? Just count that as a memorable experience.
