ON BECOMING
Ken-Dogger: Hey Fritz, why the long face?
Fritz: I’m sad, I was hoping to become an Army Officer
KD: Well, I think you can still shoot for that, what do you think is the problem?
F: Well, I was born here, I’m an American, but I’m German heritage.
KD: So?
F: Just seems like you are no longer just an American, now you have subgroup ties
KD: We ALL have subgroup ties, what makes us American is we get over them
F: You’re right, let’s go practice marching…
KEEPIN' THE FAT MAN DOWN
Ken-Dogger: Lady, the Mikster is not gonna be real happy with you.
Lady: What? I'm just helpin' with the packing, Christmas is right around the corner.
KD: Well, we still have Thanksgiving to go before we start the Christmas season.
Lady: What can I say, I'm ahead of my time.
KD: Seems like always Lady, seems like always...
FROM THE PANDEMIC YEARS
Ken-Dogger: What is the commotion…Hello?
Grover (gesturing to other guests as spokesman): We were loud, sorry.
KD: Loud ain’t the half of it, what is going on?
G: Well, we know Thanksgiving is coming up, we thought we’d help.
KD: This is helping?
G: Dude, peeps apparently need graphic representations in a pandemic.
KD: You mean to remain safe in gatherings?
G: Yep, we thought we’d model it. STAY SAFE Peeps, we need ya.
KEEP SINGING, no matter what
Ken-Dogger: ...and they called it puppy love, just because we're in our teens
Dixiee: Mikki, he's singin' again...
KD: Someone help me, help me, Help me please...
Is the answer up above? How can I, Oh how can I tell them?
This is not a puppy love
D: Mikki, he's still singin'...
KD: The love pics make me wanna sing
D: That's funny, it's pure hell on my hearing...
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
KD: hey Champ, we had a great day yesterday.
Champ: News to me Bro, I was stuck here.
KD: Sorry Champ…Yes, we went back to Best Friends Sanctuary, saw the bunnies.
C: Whoa, you know those bunnies can get pregnant the day after they give birth?
KD: Let’s get back on track, we found a new road to Kanab.
C: How was it?
KD: Stunningly beautiful, made me realize you don’t need to go far to find beauty.
C: Yep, you just gotta know what you’re looking for….
Morning peeps,
Ken-Dogger: What up Theo
Theo: Dude learned a new word, tergiversation.
KD: Tergi-what?
T: Yep, in Congress there are a lot of tergiversationalists.
KD: Really? Do tell?
T: Well, it has 2 meanings, but both apply. The act of abandoning something or someone,
of changing sides; desertion, the act of evading any clear course of action or
speech, of being deliberately ambiguous; equivocation.
KD: I see what you mean.
NOT ABOUT THE TAKING
Ken-Dogger: Lucky Pierre, can’t wait to hear this…
Lucky Pierre: Dude, I was trying to get our Christmas lights up.
KD: Um Pierre, we haven’t even done Thanksgiving yet.
LP: We gotta get ‘em up before the other side does.
KD: The other side?
LP: They’ve got their symbols, we’ve got ours…We’re taking Christmas.
KD: These are not about taking, they are about giving…of Ourselves.
LP: Seems like we need to keep reminding ourselves of that.
KD: We do Pierre, we do.
SELF ON A SHELF
Morning Integrators,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Scooter
Scooter: Dude, I was just reading about Haskins, seems he still is not getting it together.
KD: What makes you say that?
S: Tomlin said he wasn’t ready to play.
KD: Wow, guess it takes more than just raw talent to make it.
S: It always has…I guess full integration is a pipe dream.
KD: Integrating the head, heart and mind is serious work.
S: Needs to be done…
KD: Yes, it does…
S: Hey, this year, let’s do SELF ON A SHELF…
