I don’t know if I’m a geek in every sense of the word but I definitely have a strain of geekyness in me. I love Disney stuff. Anything space related is awesome. I remember growing up and living for the next shuttle launch or landing. I would have loved to have been able to see one of those live but sadly that opportunity is flying by. Then there are the Muppets… in my perfect world… I’d be one of them. Sadly, I’m just not a talented performer and I’m not [Read More]

I’m back from an awesome trip to Atlanta, Georgia with, among other people, Johnny 5. We had a fantastic trip! There were lots of highlights. Even out in Atlanta, we were immersed with Disney stuff. There was a big billboard outside our hotel promoting Disney Junior. At the business conference we were attending a Disney Dream cruise was won by a bunch of people. A video from last year’s cruise aboard the Disney Wonder was also shown. Here’s hoping they do more as we definitely would love a free, all [Read More]

Last night was a busy night for the DAPs crew. It started with Johnny 5 and I filming our 12th episode of DAPs Magic’s Geeks Corner. This was quite the adventure as we do indeed film on a porch and with the rain and wind, we occasionally were getting wet. The sound of the rain also can be heard clearly in the video.
After a bit of a break we moved from video to audio. We connected with Francis and DC Sarah to record our second episode of DAPs Chat. This [Read More]

Last night Johnny 5 and I filmed our 9th episode of Geeks Corner. This may not seem like a huge milestone but somehow just as the camera turned on, it became one. It always amazes me what we end up latching onto when we film these things. We really don’t script these things out so we don’t really know entirely what is going to happen. The hope is that the show will be a bit more organic and our personalities will just shine through. We also would hope that this [Read More]

It is that time of year, the time of giving thanks and eating Turkey. A week or two ago I was talking with Johnny 5 (my partner in crime for Geeks Corner) and we wondered how our band, the Primordial Penguins, could create a Thanksgiving song. I sat down at the piano and within minutes we had a scratch track recorded. It ended up being almost exactly what we ended up with in the video. The words however, didn’t come quite as quickly this time. In Zombie Love, the words [Read More]

It is finally here, the exclusive world premiere of the Primordial Penguins‘ first original song! Johnny 5 and I have been rushing to get this out by Halloween and we just squeaked in.
Zombie Love was written by Johnny 5 and I, Mr. DAPs, wrote the music and recorded the music. We both worked together on creating the video. We really hope you enjoy it. So now, without further adieu, enjoy Zombie Love by the Primordial Penguins!

Make it a GREAT day!

A random DAPs fact is that I, Mr. DAPs, love penguins. While most kids had a teddy bear as a kid, I had a stuffed penguin named P.D. I’m not entirely sure what P.D. stood for but that was the name of my little buddy. I still have him today. I also loved the Disney short The Cold Blooded Penguin. As an adult more penguin flicks have come out and it seems like the world is starting to catch up and share my love for penguins.

Now, Johnny 5 and I [Read More]

Last night Johnny 5 and I filmed the second episode of Geeks Corner. We’v been taking comments and suggestions under consideration and have tried to incorporate as many of them as possible. You will notice that there are a few things different from last week and in coming weeks you’ll notice more differences. I hope you enjoy the second episode more than you enjoyed the first! Leave us a comment on the youtube page and let us know what you think!

Make it a GREAT day!

On Friday night, spotlights could again be seen piercing the evening sky above Hollywood Backlots. After a weekend of percolating and thinking about the experience I’ve come up with a few thoughts about ElecTRONica. Most of these will not come as a surprise for anyone as I really don’t think they are that profound or groundbreaking. They are my thoughts just the same on ElecTRONica just the same.
Welcome Show in Sunshine Plaza

It is done. Our first episode of Geeks Corner, the online show, is now online for your enjoyment! At least, we hope you will enjoy it! I’m joined by my friend Johnny 5 as we talk about random things that have been showing up on Geeks Corner or other geeky places that we have been keeping our eyes on. We’ll include a bit of commentary and maybe even a bit of comedy…think Fozzy Bear… and hopefully you enjoy this! We’ll also have special guests joining us on the porch (yes, [Read More]
