THE BEGINNING

On Feb. 6, 2006, Sebastian /Z, aka mrdantefontana (Sweden's greatest export since the SAAB or a few men and women with more umlauts in their names than a heavy metal band's Heineken rider sang a little song some of you might remember entitled, "Fernando"), lit up the world with his tasteful (think IKEA) appreciation of everything ENTERTAINMENT.

That is also why some of the videos will not be viewable when you get there. In some cases the videos are removed by the original uploader or by the staff of these online video deposits (like in most of these cases YouTube due to copyright laws). I will try to post shortcut links to all videos posted on here each month (or bi-monthly). This is also a blog I do not give up much time for. It's just a matter of a few secs of copy/paste artistry.

As bright as that day may have seemed in Sweden, September 17th in Malmö must have been with equal intensity--bleak, for this was the day that changed everything.Note:
On September 17, 2007, After 2.454 post the visual guidance was closed for new posts. See You over at PCL or maybe in the future completely elsewhere. Who knows! Check the archives. There are still some good stuff there to guide you.
No matter how many Bergman films your girlfriend may have described to you--no matter how many you didn't need to see--would you be shocked to find that, 'maybe you were wrong', maybe you needed to see then when she begged you, and ultimately it didn't work out; maybe you need to see them right now--ALL OF THEM!THE END.
This is...

THANKS. /Z aka mrdantefontana
The chance to appreciate, comment or participate is over! All those minutes of pleasure inspired by hours of hard work lie dormant in a more deserving and understandable depository of inanimate silence:When bloggers blog it's essentially to no one, yet we wouldn't if that were the reality; we'd stand on the street corner and mumble and smile. But we're not crazy.HERE LIES THE GREAT YEARS OF A SWEDISH MAN'S WORK. HERE LIES A DIARY OR LETTER (LOVE LETTER?) TO NO ONE IN PARTICULAR!
OR ARE WE?IF NO ONE'S THERE, WE ARE. AND IF THERE IS AN AUDIENCE HOW WILL WE KNOW UNLESS IT MAKES ITSELF KNOWN?
There's one more casualty in the war tonight, not the war you may know, as you stuff your face with Hershey's Kisses, bloated and full but unfulfilled; this is a casualty of missing your water after your well runs dry.
A cliche is a cliche, sometimes because it's the best group of words to describe something that everyone feels all at the same time but can't describe with better, different, or more well-placed words than those which make up that cliche; and this is one of those times when the simple regret of going thirsty after a quenching and deep wellspring full of heaven-sent precipitation
(filtered through some discreet aquifer), is not only missed because of its quenching, but indeed, is missed because, as most everyone knows, you can only live for about three days--tops, without a drink.11 comments:

No one knows this more than myself, and on Tue. Jun 5, 2007 at 10:22 AM, The Perfect American received this WELCOME AFTER A SINGLE COMMENT--WELL-PLACED, BUT SADLY--NOW LOST:"Glad you accepted the invitation. Thanks for fun posts. You are probably a genius. And -THANKS - I'm feeling much better now. My cold is almost gone and my back is feeling way better thanks to some lovely pill. But on top on everything I stopped smoking 4 days ago. This is good but hard news."From then on i began to love the man who called me genius--or rather, realized it.
This is me excepting the first invitation to post for MDFVGL:
well, i'm honored, esp. since my style of posting is not exactly grounded in anything resembling reality, but i promise not to curse or add explicit porno. i'm working on a jerry lee/mickey gilley/swaggart thing and a scorchers recap from the recent reunion.And when SEBASTIAN was down and desperate i was there to just listen:Anyway I'm in one of those periods when blogging feels more like some chore I need to take care of. I think a break is for the best.But even at his most despondent, i knew he would maintain, and i didn't judge:This will be interesting. For me. As I'm gone.And for the readers. They were half a****p.They are always so d*** l***.IT WAS HARD, BECAUSE I KNEW HE WAS HURTING AND ALL I COULD DO WAS POST THE BEST POSTS THAT I WAS ABLE TO.

Dylan (laughing)..."on this earth and the world we can’t see"
In 1978, Dylan attended a home Bible study with girlfriend Mary Alice. She had recently “re-dedicated her life to Christ” and was concerned that she was living with an unsaved man who was not her husband.
Dylan
Animated by John Wilson, Fine Arts Films
She invited two assistant pastors from the Hollywood Vineyard Church (associated with the Vineyard Christian Fellowship) to visit Dylan’s home.
The Vineyard Fellowship, to which Dylan's girlfriend Mary Alice Artes introduced him in late 1978, was a small evangelical church that peddled a New Age, born-again version of Christianity. It had been found in Los Angeles in 1974 by Ken Gulliksen, who had previous been a singer on the Christian Music circuit. The church's style was informal. Gulliksen took services dressed in his shorts and counted a number of LA musicians among his congregation, including T-Bone Burnett, Steven Soles and David Mansfield, all of whom had played on Dylan's
Rolling Thunder Tour.
Bob and Mary Alice enrolled in the Vineyard Fellowship's School of Discipleship, attending Bible class most weekday mornings for more than three months at the beginning of 1979. At first Bob thought there was no way that he could devote so much time to the project; he felt he had to get back on the road. Soon, though, he found himself awake at 7 A.M., compelled to get up and drive to the real estate office in Reseda where Bible classes were held. "I couldn't believe I was there," he said.
Dylan
Gotta Serve Somebody movie
Dylan’s testimony was as follows:“One thing led to another ... until I had this feeling, this vision and feeling. I truly had a born-again experience, if you want to call it that. It’s an over-used term, but it’s something that people can relate to”
It was during this late winter/spring period of 1979 that Mary Alice Ares was baptized in a swimming pool at Pastor Bill's house.
"This was total immersion. Because baptism is a symbol of burial, burying guilt, and then pulling the new man out of the water," says Pastor Kenn. Bob attended the baptism and, not long afterward, Bob was himself baptized, probably in the ocean, which was where the fellowship normally conducted baptisms. By being immersed in water, Bob became, in common parlance, a born-again Christian, though he would later shrink from the term, claiming he had never used it. Yet he was clearly quoted in a 1980 interview with trusted Los Angeles Times journalist Robert Hilburn saying: "I truly has a born-again experience, if you want to call it that. It's an overused term, but it's something that people can relate to."Bob's conversion to Christianity also caused considerable upset to his own children, who had been raised in the Jewish faith. Suddenly, packs of journalists were following their father to the Vineyard Fellowship in the hope of getting pictures of him going to a Christian church, and then staking out his home. The children saw this commotion when they visited their father. It was embarrassing and one of the few times when his celebrity was a problem in their lives.

Bob Dylan 1975-1981 Rolling Thunder & The Gospel Years Promomotional TrailerIn the fall of 1983, Bob's seventeen-year-old son Jesse had a belated bar mitzvah in Jerusalem- Jakob and Samuel had already been bar mitzvahed in California- and Bob was photographed wearing a yarmulke at the Wailing Wall, adding to speculation that he had returned to Judaism. "As far as we're concerned, he was a confused Jew," Rabbi Kasriel Kastel told Christianity Today. "We feel he's coming back." In fact, Jesse was on vacation in Israel with his grandmother, Beatty, when they discovered a bar mitzvah could be conducted quickly and easily at the Wailing Wall and Bob simply flew in to play his part. He still believed Jesus Christ was the Messiah, and kept a broadly Christian outlook, although he had not maintained regular contact with the Vineyard Fellowship since the early flush of his conversion.
DYLAN MADE A BARGAIN WITH THE DEVIL
In a rare interview with Ed Bradley, aired on the 60 Minutes program, June 26, 2005, the 63-year-old rock singer said that his early songs were “almost magically written … kind of a penetrating magic.”
He also said that he made a bargain with the devil.
Question: Why do you still do it? Why are you still out here?
Dylan: It goes back to that destiny thing. I made a bargain with it a long time ago, and I’m holding up my end.
Q: What was your bargain?
Dylan: To get where I am now.
Q: Should I ask whom you made the bargain with?
Dylan: With the chief commander.
Q: On this earth?
Dylan: (laughing) On this earth and the world we can’t see.
It could be argued that Dylan was referring to a bargain he made with God, but that makes no sense. As Brian Snider wrote to me on this matter: “Who makes a bargain with God to be a rock star? Everyone knows you make that deal with the devil. Down at the crossroads.” This refers to the old Blues concept of selling one’s soul to the devil. Bluesman Robert Johnson and others have sung about it.(David Cloud, Fundamental Baptist Information Service, P.O.
