My Bucket List Revisited

As I get game and gamier, I sense the last tri-mester of my days is one that should be a revisionary era punctuated with symbolic experiences. FAQ: No. There is no terminal illness to prompt this, but the following is:

Pat Darnell's Unofficial Bucket List [though having not seen the movie yet]...
* UPDATE: * Yes, we saw the movie yesterday on DVD, and we wept!

I would like to perform an Exorcism. I want one of those exorcism gap-wrenches that Keanu Reeves has in the movie Constantine. He jumps on the torso of the victimized possessed person, and pulls out a set of coin-like chads on a key ring, makes a guess and plants the disc on the forehead of the writhing demon. That's what I'm talking about, grotesque parody.

Making a movie is one of my bucket list items. Directing, editing, and producing a flick would make my life complete.

Playing music with my kids is a major dream activity of mine. Having a jam session with my clan delights me to no end. Still, it is very hard to get all my players going in the same direction, much less having them all show up at the same time.

I would like to fall into a deep sleep and have a woman made from one of my ribs. Not for a wife or anything, just the thought of it seems likeable to me. You see it would be an exhiliarating feat. We have the technology now, probably in the near future. As the genome is further understood, things like this will happen.

I would like to have lunch with Padre Pio, though he is passed on.

To finish my manuscript finally is a major desire. Then I would like to write the sequel to "Young Frankenstein," maybe treat it like "Older Frankenstein."

One cross-country trip on I-10 with wife and last two kids, is a very attractive idea.

Bulletin: Shooting black and white negative film, processing it and burning photos is always on my mind. Last time I did this was back in the '70s' in the photo labs at college.

Teach oil on canvas to children: give lessons that take them from raw canvas to finished painting.


Entering the Grand Canyon at one end and hiking all the way to the other, is a fantasy I have.


At least one family reunion of all the kids and us. CHECK: Daniel and Megan's Wedding October 1st, 2011... Yay!


I would like to house a horse again, not a fancy one, just one to ride and show kids how horse sense is still the best sense. [Thanks again to Pribek.net for reminding me of "40 acres and a mule."]

You have to be Rich to be Insane: Report from the Middle

Do you have any Good Junk?
By Pat Darnell

Someday Son, all this will be Yours
03.27.2009
Losing one's mind is not a luxury for the Middle Class. I realize that is "so not fair." Getting help makes you vulnerable if you are already snapping every eight weeks. Generally the stay in the Psyche Ward is six weeks for mental instability. That leaves two weeks in limbo for mid-range earners. like me, since I cannot pay for the extra stay, I end up where I started. I live off the rubbish of others...

Middle Class like me will never actually be able to use Dodo Physics to obtain a Rhino Tank. I will never be on a secret mission nor wake up in a hospital with amnesia. I'll most likely never have a three week vacation. I will babysit the rich, and pay for the poor.

I will never garage rare cars or exotic transports, nor stable sleek horses. That is because dishonesty is not a luxury for the Middle Class; as is neither stealing cars or bicycles. I probably will never Morph, nor ever be able to shoot the moon to change its size. (TransformingSociety)

Writing a silly blog is the only dishonesty a Middle American can get away with... The reason I write a public accessible blog like MooPig Wisdom is to entertain myself. Yes, that is the real reason. Someone, correction, all who call me a close friend, or a father, or a husband, have asked me "do you make money doing all that?"

I feel abhorrence in my gut when asked that... but I reply "no, not yet." As if I really think MooPig Parody could demand regular income...? So not in my plan.

What I am doing is trying to establish a Publishing Clearinghouse Company out of IT attrition. You see, as nations move through the conflagration of the internet microcosm, more and more junk is left behind in mounting piles.

Some of the trash falls back into the atmosphere and burns up... but like any flea market worth its fleas, there is lots of stuff, good, almost new stuff, left behind. (DumpsterDiving withDee)

Dumpster Diving has been my intention the whole time; it is a low tech technique to support my high tech craving family. Kapish? Resources for tomorrow's garage-bench enterprise starts in today's man made mountains of left-overs. (Tao of Dumpster Diving)

That's today's Report from the Middle -- Here where the public schools are social gathering places, women are strong, and men are all good looking. Its empirical knowledge, it is fact, not brag! pd

‘opinions please’ friday: sexy flats from hollywould
September 28, 2007
The Shoe Dish :: so pretty you want to pet them
[HERE]
We are seriously loving on Hollywould right now. The fall shoe collection kicks some serious shoe ass and we find ourselves with an interesting dilemma. How will shoedish afford the entire line? Yikes!! This could pose a potentially fatal fight with our frugality. We’re lovin’ on the snakeskin, we’re lovin’ on the patina shine, and we’re lovin’ lovin’ the oversized pilgrim buckle that adorns the vamp of these sexy d’orsay flats. When is the last time you called a flat sexy? Yum! Would you wear these snakeskin d’orsay flats? Holly would. Opinions?

Moo_Pig Anti _Bombast Detail Threatened by Youth Movement

We should be a little concerned about these, what appear to be, possibly, Commandos from a Lord of the Flies Regiment and maybe a young Hockey Mom Spawn. There is a look of Earnestness and Focus that worries me. I don't see ear-buds.

They look as if their missions are to dominate our Icons. Next what?
