In the spot

WHO WAS YOUR FIRST LOVE? Jane Wecker (she didn't know though)

WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE BIGGEST MISTAKE WOMEN MAKE IN RELATIONSH­IPS? Nag.

SUN FM, TNL RADIO, GOLD FM, YES FM - IF E FM DIDN’T EXIST, A RADIO STATION YOU WILL TUNE IN TO? 89.5, 88.2, 101 Islandwide!

KUMAR, MAHELA, ARJUNA RANATUNGA - WHO IS YOUR FAVOURITE CAPTAIN? Mahela's my man!

NAME A COLOMBO PERSONALIT­Y WHO IS VERY FASHIONABL­E? Kumar Sangakkara, this should balance out the last question about the better captain…

ARE YOU THE KIND OF PERSON WHO WANTS TO BE THE BIG FISH IN A LITTLE POND OR LITTLE FISH IN THE BIG POND? Depends on the kind of fish, but little fish in big pond.

If...

IF ANOTHER YOU COULD MAN BE OR WOMAN WHO WOULD FOR A YOU DAY, CHOOSE? Al Pacino, female Justin Bieber.

IF YOU COULD COMMIT ANY CRIME AND GET AWAY WITH IT, WHAT WOULD YOU DO? Digital Bank Theft.

IF YOU COULD DATE A CELEBRITY, WHO WOULD YOU CHOOSE? Sandra Bullock IF YOU NOTICE YOUR FLY OPEN AND PEOPLE AROUND HAD ALSO NOTICED, WHAT WOULD YOU DO? Zip myself back up and thank folks around me for noticing (this has happened to me FYI-At a toy store of all places)

IF YOU WERE ABDUCTED BY ALIENS, WOULD YOU TELL ANYBODY? Why or why not? I'd tell the world, only through YOUTUBE though, peeps gotta Subscribe! Because people need to understand that we ‘Are not alone'.

IF YOU WOKE UP ONE MORNING AS RYAN HONTER? Write note to self- give Mark a substantia­l increment! Then bike to work. That awkward moment when you're talking to someone but you can't remember his/her name, so you try to avoid introducin­g him/her to the person you're with. This happens to me always! I usually just say, 'Excuse me, I have to visit the loo.'

Today I have an interestin­g personalit­y. His wit and sense of humour have made listening to the radio an interestin­g experience. What I like about Mark on air is the fact that people can relate to him. I've never gotten a chance to share the stage with him on TV or Radio; hope to do so someday!

His take on LIFESTYLE has made our mornings more enjoyable!

Good day to all!

WHAT MADE YOU ENTER SHOWBIZ? It made more sense than a desk job plus I could listen to and be around music!

WHAT’S THE THINKING BEHIND THE NAME MARK? It was this or ‘Joey Pizza', I went with Mark!

THE BEST MOMENT ON RADIO? The Longest Radio Show and Braodcasti­ng Live from the West Indies when we made the finals in 97.

WHO DO YOU ADMIRE MOST? My father, he the man!

A MOVIE TITLE FOR THE STORY OF YOUR LIFE? ‘Constantin­e' (Because it's a constant battle between Good and Evil!)

WHAT PUTS YOU IN A BAD MOOD? Mood Rings! (lol to self)! I really can't say, I'm pretty grumpy most of the time so I guess lots of things affect me.

HOW MUCH SLEEP DO YOU NEED TO FEEL YOUR BEST? Since I'm a FIT guy, nothing less than 6 (sometimes disturbed in the night by ‘Rambo') whole hours of sleep!

ONE PERSON WHO HELPED TO MAKE YOU WHO YOU ARE TODAY? Many individual­s in general but no one person in particular.

YOU WERE ON TV ONCE; WHAT MAKES YOU MORE HAPPY - TV OR RADIO? TV, but everyone keeps saying that ‘I'm better heard and not seen'. I love ‘entertainm­ent' and both mediums serve the purpose!
