See "The Fighter" when it hits the theaters...Micky Ward, the pride of Lowell.

A new movie starring Mark Wahlberg is coming soon...it's about a boxer, Micky Ward, from Lowell, Massachusetts (where my sister lives), a New England version of Rocky.  Ward was a great fighter, lots of heart, a hero for this tough town and apparently a regular guy who gives back to the community.  If any of the money from the film goes to him or to his causes, I'd like to get as many people as possible to see it -- locals were recruited for some of the scenes in the movie and you'll get an idea of this former mill town when you see it -- Bette Davis was born in Lowell as was Jack Kerouac...besides, I love Marky Mark...
