SHANA TOVA BITCHES!

dp

I have to bow my head real quick and thank the most high for this chance to see the beginning of a new year. I’m going to take a minute and pour a little Newman’s Own balsamic vinaigrette on the ground for your boy PAUL and all the other people that didn’t get to this point. Say a rest in peace to whomever you want to and recognize that none of us have a guarantee for these days.

I have to say thank you to my girlfriend Chocolate Snowflake who had the vision to buy us a trip to Barbados before my personal financial meltdown went down. She is one of the biggest reasons that my last year was so fantastic and beautiful. Last night as we waded in the ocean after dark I saw actual flying fishes in the water. It was a surreal moment that reminded me why I have so much to thank GOD for.

Rafi and Cas are also at the top of my list because of all the work they have done to make the i.C. movement more than just an inside joke on a politician.

Terrence Elenteny is about to blow the eff up. I’m just glad that he is bringing me long for the ride.

Amadeo Sogni, Dart Adams, VeE, Candice 1969, Marvelous Mo, the Ambasador, Enigmatik, the Underwriter and all of you writers who take out the time from pursuing you passion and your craft to come to this page that I live and die over, you deserve my thanks and my recognition. Please forgive me if you don’t see your name because my memory isn’t always as thorough as my heart.

To the commenters that don’t host websites, but aggregate more blogs than I can imagine, I thank you for your time that you spend here. This page, this site, belongs to you in more ways than one. I am a truly blessed dude to have so many intelligent folks as my friends.

It all comes back to the most high who has placed us all here for something real and special. When I say special I don’t mean anything more extraordinary than doing whatever we do. To make more people, to be responsible shepherds to our communities and our planet. To love others in the true biblical sense with no eye towards karma or any method of invoicing our good deeds. To just be love. This is my promise to GOD for the new year.

    Thanks for that Game Rebellion CD!

    This blog will ALWAYS be one of my favorites, always on some next shit.

    May God bless you with new Polo shirts that have crispy collars, and not them “vintage” ones with the blabbed-out sleepy collars…still can’t believe you have the audacity to take flicks with them shits on

    D, you know you’re my favorite big ol giant ball of fun (lmao).

    Your site is like the virtual Seinfeld house that everyone comes to kick it at. And thank Da God J.C. that just about everyone that stops by are fucking intellectuals in their own right as well who can laugh at your turd stories. And thank Da God J.C. that your site attracts people from ALL walks of life, from my ass to Ernie (who was an absolute pleasure to meet btw).

    I say more heart-to-heart on the telefono with you than on the internets, and i’ll keep it that way. But you get what the EFF i’m trying to say.

    Stay up D. Hit me up when you come back so you can educate my impressionable mind about something I never heard before cuz I’m young like the Keating Five.

    this like my online barbershop rite now……got me inspired to get my own blog off the ground, well this blog and the cats around me everyday telling me “I’m a writer and opinionated or I shoulda beeeeeeeeeeeeeeen had one”

    but I digress D Penn makes my days a lil brighter in general, and I’ll eventually get off my ass and contribute to the interNETS blogging community. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Oh yeah, in comic book related news I did this big two part blog partly inspired by The Last Emperor’s son “Secret Wars” where Joe Quesada and I had a Marvel vs. Hip Hop Secret Wars. It took me a full week to plan, write and then finish. Check it out here:

    Quote of the day there Dallas.

    Happy born day from the other side of the globe.
