happy birthday old man by the sea

i know i look like the fool in this picture
but i have a movie
of my father
dancing to rob zombie's boogie man
big bass pounding my neighborhood
and him on my front deck
halloween night
surrounded by flaming torches
dancing like a manic with no lithium

i'm your boogie man boogie man
i'm your boogie man

priceless

RIP HST - nice shot man - the joke's over

if a thing is worth doing it's worth doing right
we'd be fools not to ride this strange torpedo straight to the end

we will kill the ones who eat us

and eat the ones we kill,

we have no choice

the dog found my...


Butt-plug!!!


one good sneeze on a snowy day

it flew outta there like johnny rocket shot out of a canon

kaBOOM!!!

i thought it was lost forever
but she found it for me

when i explained to her exactly what a butt-plug is

and what it's for...

she was thoroughly disgusted!!!

wow!!!

the breanna has taken initiative
and started a blog

frankly

i'm a little blown away

wise and well written words from my little gurl
it's obvious to me that her gift of perspective and articulation
will usurp any semblance of talent that i have in no time

and this

makes me smile
maybe my words have inspired

my incessant writing and jotting and jabbering
and maybe this shamefully self promotional
jimmy blah blah thing
has touched something inate and creative and passionate

maybe

ambivalence

again with the repairs
i love the convenience of the short bus


it's limitless space, lots of room for friends, the ambiance, the way it handles in bad weather, party van, ski chalet, a great place to drink tequila joke a smoint and listen to ac/dc

but
it's got the voodoo for sure


i've seen this before - one thing after another

thoughts on valentine's day

hot for savagery and gasping for air
oblivious to brutality and bad taste
love can be like that sometimes
with passion like venom
pounding through hungry hearts
consuming wanting spirit and willing flesh
over and over
building
crashing
rising and falling
hot for savagery
gasping for air
unforgiven and unrepentant
dreaming of last time
until next time
becomes this time
with passion like venom
pounding through hungry hearts
consuming spirit and flesh
all ways and always
because
love
can be like that

snow day

shovelling is fun
but
snowboarding, tobogganing, furry hats, skating, making snow angels, and catching snow flakes on your tongue in the hot tub are way more funner

love

i dreamt
we were refugees
torn from this place
by tragic circumstance

and
we walked together
through misery
and
we walked together
through uncertainty
and
we walked together
through fear

we walked together
smiling
hand in hand

and it felt
like
there was no better place to be
than refugees

sweet jimmy swinghammer rides again!!!

click the pic for more 331 info and pictures
at the masonic temple in oshawa
-
back in the day
when alternative music was still alternative
the masonic temple is where we drank our cheap wine
scored hash laced with playdough
dressed like punks
and danced like manic hippies
-
god bless the party bus
and the unwitting strangers who joined us at 4:20
sweet.
my all time favorite megan ever
even prettier in person
her last words when the night was through
"let us never speak of this again"
i love when nights end that way
yummy

bridges to nowhere always go somewhere

burn
the bridges to nowhere
because every new beginning
comes from some other
new beginning's end
-
walk
through forbidden dreams
buried secrets
and hidden truths
-
live
with renewed devotion to gratifying
the radically simple needs
of the human soul
-
repeat

broken hearted?

mannequin in a shop window with an exploded heart

balance

balance sometimes has an unusual rhythm

what comes
goes

wrong goes right
good goes bad

what wasn't
is

what won't
does

the planned becomes the unexpected
and the unexpected becomes predictable

old is new
never is now

hope and disappointment
frustration or faith
true and false

should shouldn't
wouldn't would

balance sometimes has an unusual rhythm

karma laughs
while music plays
dancers dance
and fates change

never
is now

balance that

man it's cold!!!!

but if you bundle up right
it's all good
the breanna is becoming quite a good skier - i'm way impressed - and yeah, that is her in there

driving a van isn't very pimp - but the short bus is a little like a mobile chalet on a cold day at the top of the hill

the just will live by fate

like some seething greasy voodoo pimp hiding in the shadows
like an unwashable stench

like a rabid beast with five hearts
each one
pounding at random
beating without rhythm
unable to sleep
unwilling to dream
suckling the barbed nipple of insight
drinking what we can
from that sagging breast of hope we call faith
looking for light
in dark places

toronto winter city festival

took the short bus into nathan phillips square counting creepers

creepers

the girls tell me creepers are the people you stay away from cause they creep you out

the dude above is probably a creeper

as a father

i was reassured by who they would stay away from
-


we saw a bit of billy talent live at much music, did some exploring on queen street, went skating, shopped at the eaton center (bought bre some really cool rocketdog shoes at icon), ate street meat, watched some cirque troop dangle and spin theyselves 150 feet in the air from a crane shooting flares outta their arses


and then


montreal rock band MOBILE played an awesome set to a packed plaza of people


-


sweet jimmy and karly recorded a buckley's commercial too



"tastes awful but it works"

can i have more?

we're

an army
of blindfolded children
from the kingdom of fear
riding
on wooden horses
into
a recycled apocolypse of
forgotten dreams
best intentions
and unrealistic expectations
singing
songs of the doomed
to dancing angels
of uncertainty
