Rendezvous With Destiny

I'm headed back to MPLS in the morning tomorrow. As of yesterday, my Father has been given less than 24-48hrs to live. Words cannot express how I feel at this time. I think it's shock, disbelief...I don't know. I need to find a way to peace. K and Elektra are coming with me, they are my strength. I appreciate the love my friends and family have shown me. I need to do this with courage and faith. I need to walk in the light.

Peace-DAG!

Here is a collage of pictures from the "+20" video shoot on 6/28. It was a BLAST...We should have a ruff cut in like a week.

Faith

Lord, I believe:
I wish to believe in Thee.
Lord, let my faith be full and unreserved,
and let it penetrate my thought,
my way of judging Divine things and human things.
Lord, let my faith be joyful
and give peace and gladness to my spirit,
and dispose it for prayer with God
and conversation with men,
so that the inner bliss of its fortunate possession
may shine forth in sacred and secular conversation.
Lord, let my faith be humble and not presume
to be based on the experience of my thought and of my feeling;
but let it surrender to the testimony of the Holy Spirit,
and not have any better guarantee than in docility to Tradition
and to the authority of the magisterium of the Holy Church.
Amen.

Tell me how my A$$ taste...Not a bad hook.

What's up Doc, Can I rock?

Marlin's Roadhouse (Mitchell, SD)

A fast pace, with many letters, phone calls, errands, meetings, or discussions, is on the agenda. You may feel mentally restless, impatient, and overly eager to get your own ideas across. Also, a situation may arise which requires you to say what is on your mind, to make a decision, or to clearly voice your personal opinion on some issue.

Pappy is Crappy!

...But I think he was a real person? Google "pappy wall drug black hills" and see what you come up with. He started the Sturgis motorcycle rally? Back then it was called the "Black Hills Motor Classic"...what? Photo taken @ Wall Drug in Wall, SD (6/10/98).

I have returned from the MPLS, MN! I am filled with crazy different emotions from this trip. You see, my father is very sick and his doctor and the hospice staff is giving him about a month to live. I have broken down so many times in the last two weeks. I feel blessed to have a strong group of family and friends to rely on. Their strength is helping me get through this. I had a talk with my pops over the phone the other day. He told me..."Mark I'm Dying". He repeated it to me like two or three more times. All I could do is weep and told him I love him. This REALLY REALLY sucks. It's like watching your own mortality, it's scary, Let's hope for the best, right?

On the flip, Elektra and K seemed to have a GOOD time. I'll post more about our Road Warrior adventures...we took lots O' pics.

Stay well, DAG!

Greetings...

D.N.A.

We finished recording vocals on four new Numbs songs this week. Now, It’s all up to Shanty (cutz) and Fischer (trackz) on the post production. The songs are…

“The Bank Job”
“Is That Wrong?”
“Act Up”
“Mind, Body, Soul” (might not be the REAL title in the end, who knows?)

I’m going to be heading to MPLS on Monday (6/9) for like a week and a half. This MIGHT (or might not?) be the last posting on here for a minute. I work ALL weekend so yeah my baloney tits might not get a chance to put it down.

Elektra finished the 1st grade today. I am a HAPPY dad. She has grown so much this school year, it’s a blessing. I went up to the school with K to see her off this morning. They cancelled the outdoor celebration concert due to the rain (rain for two days straight in Utah is a rarity.

When learning becomes you, then it appears as you need it, when you are being you.

Peace-DAG!

That's more like it...

Five Oh One

One. Please sign the petition to bring back Mayor McCheese. When was he voted out of office? The same time around “Make It Mac Tonight”? (google that for some weird ass images). Was he bought off with McCheese checks? Is it because he was running the “Legion Of Dairy”? There was a time when I thought Mayor McCheese and Big Mac Cop were the same entity. Like maybe he freelanced at night as B.M.C. (alter ego). I was wrong, lost $10 bucks and my entire worldview was turned upside down. Here’s the link to the petition…

Two. The LOST season 4 ender was dope. I’ll write more on this soon. I got some of my predictions right and some wrong. Eff a spoiler! I’ll be in Minnesota for like a week starting June 9th…I’ll break it down then. I’d give it a solid 4 out of 5. If this thing ends up on the good foot after seix seasons it might go down as the best TV show EVER. Heroes aint got nothing on this!

Three. There was another shakedown at work. They let a person go from my shift and since there is only three of us, they reduced the workforce by 33.333% I’m sure they have a plan (not) to put someone in place that has an equal skill set (psyche) and things will run smoothly (right…).

Four. The Wize Guy is over 500 posts on the blog spot, BIOTCHES! I want to get a PODcast going now. Who’s in?

Five. Self High.

Peace-DAG!

I love the little ocean burp at the end...

Best Show Ever!
