The very last photos of my daughter’s wedding… you know… unless you want to see what the place settings looked like or whatever…

a 1

There I am, with Jessica, doing the daddy/daughter dance. We danced to a song I used to sing to her when she was little. It is called: The Dippy Doo song, and I wrote it. I mean, I write songs with real words, you can hear and see them by clicking the button in the top bar called something like: My Original Song Videos. But this one just has the words dippy and doo repeated over and over to a catchy little tune.

a 2

A friend of mine helped me record the Dippy Doo song with awesome musical tracks that swelled until it was an entire orchestra. He even made my voice sound better. When Jessica was little, she would stand on my size-15-feet while we danced. She did that again. It hurt.

a 3

Obviously, the best part of the Dippy Doo song is the dip at the end of each verse.

a 4

They even gave me a microphone during the toasts. Jessica asked me in advance to write something down, so I would’t just ramble. I did. And then, I went off script…

a 5

Hey, we all knew it was going to happen. And I am good with words, and everybody loved it. In fact, some older gentleman from Jason’s side of the family said it was the funniest thing he had ever heard at a wedding.

a 6

I took a photo of the professional photographer, while she was taking this photo of me. I still think my pictures of that day are almost as good as hers… except hers have more me in them. (Thanks again, Kristina Adams Photography!).

a 7

I still don’t understand how this little girl became this beautiful young woman…

a 8

But I am glad she did.

a 9

And I’m glad I got to help.

More pictures of my daughter’s wedding… part 3

My daughters… how lucky am I?

a 2

That picture could make me cry… you know… if I had human emotions…

a 3

Awwwwww…

a 4

When two best friends get married… by their best friend…

a 5

Seriously… when did this girl become that woman?

a 6

Remember, I was a house dad before it became a thing.

a 7

She was pretty much my whole world… because I didn’t have a blog yet… HA!

a 8

I miss having her around, but she is happy, and that is what I was always shooting for.

a 9

But I miss being the handsome prince in her story, and now I am the fat, old king, watching her get married… sniff… stupid allergies.

Thanks again, Kristina Adams Photography

More pictures of my daughter’s wedding… part 2

a 1

No, that isn’t the daughter who got married, that is my other daughter, Mollie, who is graduating high school soon. And a rather drunk me. I love that kid. I am glad she is old enough to show on the blog now.

a 2 a

So, we have this thing we do… I call her Mollie the mollusk… or just Mollusk. And I say: “Mollusk me!”… and then we put our cupped hands together, like two hugging mollusks. It is adorable.

a 3

There is my other daughter, Jessica, and my new son-in-law, Jason. Can you spot me in that picture?

a 4

There I am, walking Jessica to the ceremony.  My wife would be in that photo, but I cropped her out… hey, she doesn’t want to be on the blog.

a 5

Then there were some hugs, right before many words were said.

a 6

It was all really quite beautiful.

a 7

Mollie and her boyfriend. The professional photographer who took these… (Thanks again, Kristina Adams Photography)… thought they were so attractive that she wants them to model for her advertisements and brochures. And she is a pretty famous wedding photographer.

a 8

Just like Mollie wore tennis shoes under her prom dress, the bride and groom chose comfortable footwear. It is a thing. Don’t be a fashion victim.

a 9

I love that Jason guy. He makes my kid happy, and we do cool stuff together.

At this point, collusion is just the frosting on the pile of poop…

z 3 copy

I mean, yes, it would be nice if we could kick the guy out by proving that he knowingly colluded with the Russians. The thing is… and there is actually more than one thing… a lot more… but we would just end up with another poop head in the Oval Office.

The point I am trying to make here is that people are too focused on the collusion thing. Because even if they never prove collusion, it seems to me that the cover up has become as big of a thing as the collusion thing. Why does it matter if there was collusion if the president as his minions have lied and obstructed justice to keep us from finding out if there was any?

And really, the main point is that this guy is unfit for office… any office. He has put people in sensitive positions who have no business being there. He is either inept or just plain evil. Take your pick. He is guilty of nepotism and cronyism and leading us towards fascism…  and many other isms as well. He isn’t even doing what he told the people who voted for him he was going to do, and that was a pretty low bar to begin with.

I don’t know if we can remove him from office, or if we will be better off if we do. I don’t know if we can undo the damage he has done to our political system, our educational system, our tax system, or our planet. And worst of all, I don’t known if we can ever repair the damage he has done to to our standing in the world, the way the world looks at us. There were already enough people out there that hatted us, but there were also people who looked at us as an example. We were a beacon. Now, that beacon leads to a darkened, storm-tossed shore, through fog and dangerous reefs and rocks, to a benighted land that offers scant hope to those in the world yearning for something better.

More pictures of my daughter’s wedding… part 1

a 1

Jessica got the photographs from the professional photographer! I would like to thank Kristina Adams Photography for these.

a 2

I still think my pictures were pretty good, but these do have more me in them.

a 3

Uh, I don’t even remember the story behind that one. Why am I not wearing a tie. I mean, I remember taking it off, but I thought that was after Jessica changed into her dancing dress… of course, I was sort of drunk at that point. Or was this before the wedding ceremony? It might have been the moment I first saw her in the dress, because that is a look of pure pride and love and amazement on my face. Even Riley the dog seems impressed.

a 5

Okay, that one is just plain silly.

Let’s play: Name that romance novel!!!

a 1

Go ahead, wow us… come up with a name for this romance novel. Bonus points for a funny author’s name… and no, you can’t call it: The Russians Are Coming… because this is a classy blog… and that is the name of a real movie… and I already used it when I did a funny thing with the movie poster… so… yeah.

Trump says: “I am back from the Middle East”… while speaking in Israel…

Okay, even if you still somehow think Trump is doing an awesome job as president, will you please at least admit that he is a moron of the highest order? Oh, and I would like to point out that, after giving Obama crap for bowing to the Saudi king, which protocol demands, Trump, when given his big, golden medallion, curtsied like a freekin’ little girl.
