Ken-Dogger: Hey Donner, you down?
Donner: I am, unsure why, just down right now.
KD: A lot of peeps are down now, voting consequences, you know.
D: I do know, it's a bummer. But you know, there's still silver linings out there and still a fight to make.
KD: I think peeps are still licking their wounds, they're not ready for the next steps.
D: Guess, I'll work on my down and build it to Up.
KD: Guess, we all should work on seeing the UP.
Ken-Dogger: Morning Cleo
Cleo: Is it still? You're a late arrival today.
KD: IKR, I did sleep in; I never sleep in. Must have needed it.
C: You humans crack me up. You think there is some larger goal out there other than loving, eating, getting petted, and sleeping.
KD: We do get deluded.
C: Keep it simple my brother...
KD: And a KISS to you to Cleo.
We got here largely via a PROTEST VOTE...
US citizens had a chance to save democracy, but they chose to protest selection processes rather than save a country.
Ken-Dogger: Well, well, someone's happy this morning.
Clyde: Dude, you know, I've got emotional range.
KD: Wow, emotional range, please, go on.
C: Well, it just seems a lot of peeps are morose and sullen lately, they've forgotten there's a range of emotions out there.
KD: No, they've tasted reality.
C: Perhaps so, but it's a good reminder to let peeps know there is still a wide-open range out there.
KD: Good to know, Clyde, thanks for the startle.
Ken-Dogger: Morning Hogarth
Hogarth: Hey Dogger, morning to you. I was just thinking about things I never got over.
KD: Wow, that's pretty heavy this early, you mean like politics and stuff?
H: Politics? Who can figure that out? Naw, Dogger, I mean the real stuff. I never got over why the banned Wooly Bully.
KD: That was another case where peeps didn't understand so they banned.
H: Hmmm, seems easier to ban than understand.
KD: Tis true, Hogarth, tis true.
Ken-Dogger: Morning Sly
Sly: What up Dog
KD: You seem to be looking around a lot this morning, what gives?
S: I'll tell ya what gives...That new guy keeps picking some weirdos for his cabinet. I'm just hoping I don't get picked.
KD: Why is that?
S: Dude, I only know how to eat and walk right now, not much qualification for anything. Seems that's what gets you in the candidate pool.
KD: You're not far off, I'll keep you out of sight.
S: Keep me off the books.
Ken-Dogger: Hey Clyde
Clyde: That's your greeting, hey? Come on, what's the deal?
KD: Getting ready for a long two years in the USA.
C: These pundits sure can put a damper on life, can't they?
KD: They can, they do, they will...not sweet alternatives now.
C: We've still got each other, we're still breathing, we've got resources.
KD: Resources and cliches...We're playing one game at a time.
C: We're taking one day at a time.
KD: Together...
Ken-Dogger: Hey there Petie
Petie: Morning Dogger, I'm looking for someone to bite this morning.
KD: Whoa, doggies...what hellacious rage today.
P: Well, I'm upset, and peeps aren't letting me be upset.
KD: You want to wallow in your sorrow, is that it?
P: I want time to let it resolve...it needs to breathe.
KD: Let's give it some time then Petie, we've got that.
P: Yes, Dogger, yes, we do.
Wake up everybody no more sleepin in bed
No more backward thinkin time for thinkin ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so
There is so much hatred war an' poverty
When you teach the children teach em the very best you can
The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me
HM & BN
Morning Peeps,
Ken-Dogger: What up Coltrane?
Coltrane: Stuff seems awful quiet...
KD: You mean you aren't hearing celebrations and dancing in the streets like in 2020?
C: Nope, seems different, quieter this time.
KD: Is it quieter, or have we just shut ourselves out of the noise?
C: You mean we don't always see the totality?
KD: I mean we don't always see the totality.
