  • My son and myself.

    Who do you spend the most time with?

    I am locked into some kind of weird loveless marriage.

    I can’t completely blame my wife for whatever mental health problems she has, and I stay with her because I don’t want to know what would happen to her if I left her. I care about her enough to want to make sure that she is ok. Often I am not sure if she feels the same way.

    But we have a son.

    My son, My Buddy…

    I love my son more than anything in the world.

    Although I only want what is best for him Inlet him find his own way.

    I wanted him to have the childhood that I had full of vacations and special occasions and the perfect home.

    But I failed him.

    I only blame myself, although my wife made it incredibly difficult.

    Despite my failure to provide my son with the same kind of upbringing that I had, I make sure that I am there for him.

    I spend most of my time with my son.

    Telling him what he is doing wrong and doing right.

    I make sure he has clean clothes, plenty to eat and the comfort of knowing that I will always be there for him.

    He is 13, I listen to all of his ramblings and tell him what I think. Someday I hope that he remembers how I always stopped what I am doing to listen to him.

    As much as I hate to say it, my son is my world.

    I make sure that he is the person I spend most of my time with, because he is the most important person I have ever known.

    Because he is my son.

    No matter how defiant, dissobideient, or weird he is. I like to spend most of my time with him, just so that he knows I am there watching over him.

    Some accuse me of being a “helicopter parent” to them I say I am a “digital parent.”

    I am everywhere.

    I spend time with him when he wakes up in the morning and when he comes home from school.

    I cook his diner and still try to take him everywhere I go.

    I have been to every event of his childhood just so that he can see my face in the crowd.

    Recently the thought crossed my mind, what if he no longer looked for my face in the crowd?

    Or what if he looked and I was not there?

    I don’t like to think about that question and that is why I am always there.

    Because the person I spend most of my time with and the person I want to spend most of my time with even if he does not know it.

    Is my son.

  • Propane Man Confidential

    Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life.

    I have been making Propane Man Confidential videos since 2023.

    Here is my first video followed by me latest.

    I have over 100k followers on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

    Some people tell me in the millions of comments that I get that my videos bring Joy to their life.

    And that what’s keeps me going.

    That I am brining Joy to other people’s lives.

    It was recently announced that the plot to the New King Of The Hill revival is that Hank returns to Arlen, Texas after spending years in Saudi Arabia selling Propane.

    I sent a series of Tweets to Mike Judge in 2021, pitching a revival of King of the Hill.

    The similarities between my pitch and the Official Plot of the show are to identical for me not to take notice.

    Should I unplug from this?

    Am I over my head?

    Well I am a Bruce, and our family motto is Fuimus. Roughly translated it means “we have endured.”

    We are used to enduring.

    So I will not unplug, my family does not know the meaning.

    If anything I hope that Mike Judge acknowledges my dedication toward King of the Hill and how the universe seems to be pulling us together.

    I will not unplug I will keep going.

    And if the Saudi Prince wants me to Cosplay Hank Hill for him I will do it.

    Just throwing that out there.

  • A Strange Question on a Strange Day.

    How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen?

    Recently it was announced that when King of the Hill returns on Hulu that the plot will be that Hank returns to Arlen, Texas to reconnect with his neighbors after spending years in Saudi Arabia selling Propane.

    In 2021 I sent Mike Judge, the creator of King of the Hill these tweets, when Twitter was still a thing.

    I would usually not take notice to this but the similarities and fundamentals in the plot that I pitched and the plot that Mike Judge decided to go with are too identical for me to not take notice.

    So what happened?

    Did someone see my post back in 2021?

    I did not start Cosplaying Hank Hill until 2023.

    I have over 100k followers on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. I have millions of like and comments and over 100 videos of me Cosplaying Hank Hill from King of the Hill.

    All between 2023 and 2025.

    Hulu just announced the King of the Hill revival, and that the plot is that Hank returns after years of selling Propane in Saudi Arabia to reconnect with his neighbors.

    I think that the universe is trying to tell me and Mike Judge something, because this is entirely coincidental or so I would like to believe…

    And if Hank Hill has to sell Propane in Saudi Arabia then I would like to offer my services to the Saudi Prince.

    I am willing to cosplay Hank Hill from King of the Hill for you, for your entertainment.

    I have been riding this ride since September of 2023, and I am not about to “unplug” it.

  • A life with patience and without the internet.

    Do you remember life before the internet?

    Before the internet life required patience.

    Instant Gratification was a dream that we could only imagine.

    Before the Internet you had to actually go out of your way for gratification. Nothing was at the palm of your hand.

    Problem solving required experience, for example:

    If you were a teenager stuck at the mall before the internet you would have to figure out how to call someone for a ride.

    You would have to know who to call?

    If you had a quarter or if you would have to collect?

    You would have to remember the number you have to call.

    You would have to worry about if the number you called would answer.

    That was life before the internet in a nutshell.

    I almost prefer life before the internet.

    Before the Internet people had to rely on Self Reliance, but not all people learned Self Reliance from the same place.

    People had different ways of dealing with different things.

    In a way life before the internet felt free.

    Like we experienced life in Real Time more then we do today, because it was more personal.

    We ourselves were the only cloud that saved memories.

  • Cosplaying Hank Hill from King of the Hill.

    What are you good at?

    I have been cosplaying Hank Hill from Mike Judge’s King of the Hill since 2023.

    I have over 100k followers on TikTok, Instagram and Facebook. I have millions of views, likes and comments.

    I have always been able to do the voice and I accidentally obtained the look. I have also watched an unhealthy amount of King of The Hill.

    I can stay in character for hours, I even Cosplay Hank Hill on Twitch.

    I can provide entertaining commentary in character for hours.

    I can do it live, I can do it with whoever and whenever.

    Cosplaying Hank Hill from King of the Hill is what I am good at and I would like to see it open doors for me.

    I have been trying to open those doors all of my life.

  • Memories

    Do you have any collections?

    What I have is a collection of memories.

    My memory is strange really, you see I can remember things that most people can not.

    Like what it was like to wear diapers. The uncomfortable feeling of soiling yourself within a diaper.

    I can remember my perspective from a car seat and what was playing in the radio.

    I can remember dreams and nightmares from when I were a child.

    I can remember almost every Birthday, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween and Easter.

    I can’t tell if it is guilt or sentimental attachment that makes me remember, but I can remember everything.

    I have tried to collect things over the years: Baseball and Football Cards, Comics, Video Games, Posters, News Paper Clippings.

    But nothing ever felt realer than my memories, my experiences.

    I keep them all in my head and I use WordPress to try and empty them.

    But as I write about my collection of memories and experiences I think of better ways to define them.

    However one collection that I have remains public.

    My collection of videos that I have made and posted to Social Media.

    My YouTube: @danamericachannel59

    My older YouTube that I sometimes think about making private, but it documents how I started. From early YouTube to my attempts at launching The Real American Movie and Wrestling Critics series and my Open Mic Stand Up years https://youtube.com/@danamerica59?si=DzdWW2jlNoJRVfpl

    My Instagram

    My TikTok

    https://www.tiktok.com/@propaneman_danamerica?_t=ZP-8we2xvoChKw&_r=1

    All are collections of my work, of who I was and who I have become and who I want to be.

    Over the years I have kept this collection because I want to share it with the world.

  • Having it all.

    What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

    You want to have it all but you’re worried about what they will say.

    There is a cloud hanging over you even if the sun was out that day.

    Preaching up as far as you can reach up to climb back up from that cliff you did not see.

    Memories are finding out how guilty they can be.

    Every moment that did not last keeps creeping up behind the scenes.

    If I could take it all away and keep my life, you know I surely would.

    Time will have a laugh at what I never could.

    If I had it all, my nightmares wouldn’t be what I come home to in the afternoon.

    I would spend all morning making sure why I plan on saving the world is understood.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner still smells like the times when things were good.

    Having it all would be if everyone understood, they wouldn’t judge you and they wouldn’t nudge you, just to nudge you to where they want you.

    To have it all means to me that is that you can live the dream you dream after you’ve endured your misery.

    You can’t get it unless you live it.

  • Hulk Hogan and the good folks at Real American Beer and Hooters.

    Who would you like to talk to soon?

    I was a Hulkamaniac.

    In the late 1980’s early 1990’s Hulk Hogan was my life, my hero, my inspiration.

    I was a fat kid and everyone made fun of me, even my brother and sister.

    Hulk Hogan was my savior, too me Hulk Hogan was someone that had my back no matter what, reminding me to better myself and fight for what is right.

    My parents bought me posters, action figures and shirts with Hulk Hogan on it because they saw how much he meant to me and how he motivates me.

    Hulk Hogan was one of my childhood Hero’s but overtime that feeling of how he influenced me was lost…

    Time made me lose touch with how much my Hero meant to me but I never forgot.

    I still watch Hulk Hogans matches from years ago and remember how much they meant to me.

    Recently Hulk Hogan has launched Real American Beer and recently I have become somewhat of a “Internet Famous” Cosplayer, cosplaying Hank Hill from King of the Hill.

    I think that the combination of Hulk Hogan and myself can benefit Real American Beer.

    Do you want to see Hulk Hogan and Hank Hill advertise Real American Beer?

    It would be crazy! The most unlikely combination that is sure to draw attention. I am not saying that I am as big as Hulk Hogan, but the opportunity is there.

    No one will see it coming.

    And it is too unique to fail.

    I would like to talk to Hulk Hogan or Real American Beer, because this is too good of an opportunity to waste.

  • Legacy

    What is the legacy you want to leave behind?

    At this point in my life I feel that I cannot choose what my legacy is but keep on working until fate hands me my legacy.

    I don’t come from a rich family, I come from a working class family.

    I had dreams and I made mistakes.

    But the window to choose my legacy never closes.

    Because my legacy is my story.

    All of our legacies are our story.

    Our legacy comes from our story, we don’t get to choose it only choose what we do as you build it.

    My current legacy has come down to Propane Man Confidential and this blog…

    To be continued.

    That is my legacy.

  • No. Never Broke Bone.

    Have you ever broken a bone?

    I drink a lot of Milk.

    I always have ever since I was a child.

    I am also Scottish, Irish and Polish.

    Ate a lot of Potatoes and Cabbage growing up.

    Bananas too.

    I don’t know if it’s because of my ethnicity or because of my diet or if it’s just because I have always been careful?

    Not nope.

    Never broke a bone but it always creeps me out.

    All of those fragments floating around.
