For my wife on her birthday (Sept. 4th), I love you honey...



I never knew such a day could come
And I never knew such a love
Could be inside of one

And I never knew what my life was for
But now that you're here I know for sure

I never knew till I looked in your eyes
I was incomplete till the day you walked into my life
And I never knew that my heart could feel
So precious and pure
One love so real

Can I just see you every morning when
I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me
Every night
Can we just feel this way together
Till the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you

Now baby the days and the weeks
And the years will roll by
But nothing will change the love inside
Of you and I

And baby I'll never find any words
That could explain
Just how much my heart my life
My soul you've changed

Can you run to these open arms
When no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world
I'm your woman, and you're my man
Can't you just feel how much I love you
With one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you

No touch has ever felt so wonderful
(You are incredible)
And a deeper love I've never known
(I'll never let you go)
I swear this love is true
(Now and forever to you)
(only for you)
To you
Can I just see you every morning when

I open my eyes
Can I just feel your heart beating beside me
Every night
Can we just feel this way together
Till the end of all time
Can I just spend my life with you
Can you run to these open arms

When no one else understands
Can we tell God and the whole world
You're my woman, and you're my man
Can't you just feel how much I love you
With one touch of my hand
Can I just spend my life with you

Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just spend my life with you
(Forever here with you)
Can I just spend my life with you
Can I just see you every morning when I
Open my eyes

Monday's are great...even for 18 month old babies.

Oh man...what a morning. So I take Logan out of his chair and noticed he had spilled his juice all over his shirt, shorts and high chair. I pick him up and start heading upstairs to change his clothes and he freaks the f**k out! Kicking his legs, arms/hands flying all over the place etc. He wouldn't let me put his shirt or shorts on and sat there freaking out...so I left him in our room, closed the door and just sat on the stairs for a couple minutes while he cried and threw his tantrum because I was losing it. It sounded like he calmed down a little so I go back in our room, go to put his shorts on and he starts freaking the f**k out again. So I pick him up and bring him downstairs (the whole time, for whatever reasons, he's going crazy while I'm holding him). So I "throw" him on the couch like I do our bed, thinking that'll make him laugh..but no. 4 Squares comes on, he calms down..I put on his shorts...then when I go to put his shirt on, he starts freaking out again. So I wrestle with him and said to him "too bad, you're putting on this shirt!" Get his shirt on, sit him on the floor in front of the TV so he can watch Diego. I get his sandals...as soon as I put on 1 sandal, he starts to complain and is about to lose it. I told him "that's enough" very sternly which I think was the wrong approach at the time because he started to cry. Put on his other sandal then he started throwing a fit while lying on the ground....I get up, becasue i just about had it. Go over to the kitchen and start cleaning up a little while he's sitting in front of the TV watching, but crying at the same time and looking over at me to see if I'm watching. And that's all in 15 minutes...

So I head to the door and say "come on Logan, let's go"....he comes over and throws himself on the floor in front of the door and starts crying. By this time I'm thinking to myself that I might as well get a knife and stab myself repeatedly. I say to him "what's wrong Logan?" and reach out my hands...he comes to me and asks me to pick him up. By this point he was crying so damn hard that while resting his head on my shoulder he was doing that 'breathing" thing kids do when they've cried so much they can't cry anymore...that funny/staggered breathing noise, first time i've ever seen him do that. So I just kept telling him "it's ok baby" when i don't even know what da f**k is wrong! I put him down so I can put on my shoes...he starts crying/complaining again!!!! Get my shoes on, pick him up go outside and he magically stops freaking out. Put him in his car seat with no problems....get over to Day Care, put him on the ground and he walked up the drive way right to the door. We get inside, he gives me a hug then climbs the stairs, goes to the play area then waves at me and says "bye". In my head, I'm thinking "what da fuck was the last 20 minutes all about?" I tell them about his fit and they said that sometimes when they're like that, it's best to leave them and have their fit.

Man, if this is any indication of the temper this kid's gonna have...I'm in for a real fun time during his teen years.

In case you didn't hear..

Michael Jackson is dead...it's a sad day in music & entertainment. Arguably the Greatest musician and performer..no, it's not even arguable. HE IS THE GREATEST MUSICIAN & PERFORMER OF ALL TIME. Sure, towards the end of his career things might have gotten rough and the media really destroyed him but his contribution to the entertainment industry cannot be denied. Musically he was excellence personified and set the standard to which all elements of Pop culture are measured. So this post of my blog is dedicated to my favourite musician, performer, dancer & entertainer...the Greatest: Michael Jackson R.I.P my man, thank you for touching my soul and makin' me dance.

Michael Jackson the Humanitarian




Michael Jackson the Performer




Michael Jackson the Endorser




Michael Jackson the Innovator

couldn't find a full "licensed" version of Thriller...this video set the standard for Music Video's as we know them today




Michael Jackson the Sensitive Guy



You're music & legacy will live forever...

It's all good...my legacy is represented and the future is bright:

Daddy of the Dead...

Son woke up @ 4am this morning...don't know why. I'm @ work, I'm a friggin' zombie right now...


I hope I last through the day...I have to friggin' ref the MBA finals tonight too.

It's been a long time...

Since I last blogged...I think the last time I did, I was in LV.

Not much has happened since I came back from LV...just the ball league I run: www.leaguelineup.com/mbl and I've heard something about the NBA playoffs happening, not sure what that's about LOL.

So I know in a previous post I said I would write another Pinoy Pride article...well, that article never happened LOL. I just haven't found any time to sit there and write or blog for that matter. I'm actually starting get more on twitter. However, the only time I "tweet" is when I'm bored...which happens to be almost the whole day I'm @ work LOL. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy what I do...sort of...but when you're more interested in being with your Family, Music, Ball and Golf you kinda start to hate working for a living!

So I really don't know what else to say for now...I'm leaving work in about 1/2 hour...bored, just wanna get outta here already.

I need to see my son...

I've been thinking about him all day. I was trying to find kicks to match the ball outfit I bought him here in LV. I miss my wife & son...really, I do.

Today was pretty cool...drove around North Las Vegas checking out some property. Real Estate is going for dirt cheap around here. I have a feeling that I'll be spending more time in Las Vegas over the next couple of years ;)

After looking at houses, I met up with Xist and his buddy Steve. We went to some shoot for some Hip-Hop reality show MTV is releasing. They were filming the pilot episode...Xist knew some DJ, Presto One who was being part of the whole thing so we checked it out. It was kinda boring to tell you the truth. Afterwards we went to some "outdoor mall"...bought myself a pair of shorts. Went to get something to eat and can you believe they don't serve beer by the pint or pitcher!!! I asked what they served it in and they said "a glass"...I told them "You don't have pints or pitchers?!?! I'm Canadian, what da hell am I supposed to do with a glass of beer?" Anyway, I ended up getting bottle of Heiniken since they were so wack.

I've confirmed that Americans are pretty ignorant...I had some discussions about politics, religion and war (something I've always wanted to do with a conservative type Amurrican". This persons views & ideals were very hypocritical. Most of the knowledge is what they get fed in the news. They make judgements based on false information and ignorance. For example, I was told that terrorists will or have been coming in through Canada, to which I shot out "Straight up dude, that's a very ignorant statement." Then he went on some rant about how many Muslims we have in Canada..I felt like saying, yeah we also have lots of whites, blacks, chinks, flips and spics too eh? This is a former American soldier who served in Iraq I was talking to. When I heard that I said "I'm sorry to hear that you had to be part of that man." He looked at it as "fighting for his country" to which I told him, nobody should be part of a war man. Another statement I heard was that Islam teaches Muslims to hate and kill anyone who doesn't believe in their God. I wasn't having any of that and told him "I strongly disagree with you. The Qu'ran doesn't teach anything like that..I have friends that are devoted Muslims and they condemn the actions of the Taliban and this Jihad you all talk about." I mean this guy was so ignorant that he was using the word "Jihad" in the completely wrong context and definition of the word LOL. Like "oh, the jihad is gonna get us" There are SO many things the Amurrican said that didn't make sense and sounded so stupid....anyway, that little discussion truly made me grateful that I'm Canadian and have a little bit more of an open mind and tolerance for people of different religions and cultures. At one point I said "dude, you Americans are so scared about another terrorist attack...what tha hell has happened since 9/11?" The answer to that? "Well we gotta go over there and make sure they're not coming over here..." This coming from the same guy that said "They shouldn't be coming here and messing with us." Says a lot about these Amurricans don't it?
