Entourage: Let's Blog It Out

By Mark La Monica

For a fella, everything in life comes down to a girl. Always.

What we wear. What we say. What we do. It's always about the girl. Either we're trying to get the girl, or we're trying to keep the girl.

It's not a bad thing, except when that quest leads us to interrogate an entire film crew like Billy Walsh did. (Early running for Joshie consideration as Best Scene, by the way).

Think about the things in your world right now. How many of them can you truly say is for or about you? That shirt you just bought, yeah, you bought it to look good for the ladies at the club. That painting, guy, c'mon. We all know why you ponied up the cash. And we all know why you learned how to cook.

Now think about this: Despite what George Lucas says, the entire Star Wars saga boiled down to a girl. That's right. If Anakin Skywalker didn't possess such powerful feelings of love toward Padme, the force would never have been disturbed.

Ninety percent of the music you listen to is about relationships. Some dude on a quest for the love of a girl.

So, when Billy Walsh struggled to write the ending to "Medellin" and subsequently became even crazier than normal in the Season 4 premiere of "Entourage," we all felt his pain. We've all been there, pining away for a girl. It stings even more when she's pining for anyone or anything but you.

The romantics among us chase this notion that a woman's love gives a man his soul and lifts his spirits to unimaginable heights. It's a noble cause, one definitely worth chasing.

When a man works and lives in the presence of his muse, he can do anything. When he loses that muse, his powerful inspiration for life, he crumbles. Remember when Mandy Moore crushed Vince for a second time?

For a fella, everything in life comes down to a girl. Always.
