YOU JUST TURN YOUR PRETTY HEAD AND WALK AWAY
Ken-Dogger: Morning Snoop
Snoop: Morning, got a question about yesterday…Did you see Method Dog and me playing?
KD: Yes I did, looked like it was good fun
S: It was until MD started upping the ante…He started hitting me harder
KD: That doesn’t seem right
S: IKR, jeez…so I hit him harder back, he hit me harder, so I hit him harder back
KD: When did it stop?
S: When I walked away
KD: Did you declare victory?
S: Mission Accomplished
SMELLING DECEIT
Warning Signs...
Ken-Dogger: Hey Charlie, be careful.
Charlie: Wha…?
KD: There was a briar right there, didn’t want you to step on it.
C: Thanks for the warning Bro…
KD: Thanks for knowing how to respond to a warning.
C: IKR, when you tell me what to do, I believe.
KD: Yep, and when peeps tell you in words and deeds who they are, believe them.
C: Dude, I know this, I can smell deceit.
KD: Could you teach the rest of us?
WE JUST STOP ACCEPTING CHALLENGES
Ken-Dogger: Hey Butkus, you stretchin’?
Butkus: Hey, morning routine, you know…Didn’t see you in garage much yesterday.
KD: Well, I worked some and then I hit my driver on the range.
B: Ate up with it aren’t you?
KD: I’m in a fun phase, it’s all new, it’s fresh learnin’…
B: Great motivation there…
KD: I’m likin’ the challenge, it’s invigorating.
B: Maybe peeps don’t get old, they just stop accepting challenges…
WRITING...IT'S A PROCESS
Ken-Dogger: Hey Wolfie, you singing?
Wolfie: In 1814, we took a little trip, we took some bacon, we took some beans…
KD: Oh, Battle of New Orleans this morning?
W: Yep, brushing up on it…
KD: You considering a rewrite?
W: We fired our guns and the British kept a-coming…
KD: Wait, you’re gonna need a rewrite there…They just let them in.
W: We fired our guns but they were already in the lines?
KD: Keep writing, you’re not there yet.
Trump is just the latest in a very long line of dastardly bastard Repubs...
Morning Again Peeps, I went back to sleep...
Ken-Dogger: Hey Yvette, you just hangin' out?
Yvette: Nope, I'm preppin' the camper...
KD: You are, and where do you think you're headed?
Y: Headed to America's National Parks...
KD: Hate to tell you but ANP's campgrounds are closed.
Y: Trump again?
KD: Yep...
Y: Well, we're still goin', someone needs to protect these national treasures...
KD: You're right, let's roll...
DO ME A FAVOR...OPEN THE DOOR AND LET IT IN
Morning Peeps,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Chester
Chester: Hey Bro…What we gonna do today?
KD: Well Buddy, I’m not sure…A special walk?
C: I’d be cool with that.
KD: You seem really happy this morning.
C: I am Dogger, just being alive, having my family here, and a special walk. What more could I ask for?
KD: Glad you’re good with the simple things…
C: Bro, you can find JOY anywhere, you just gotta be willing to let it in.
Because I'm a Helper trending toward an Empath...
Sometimes, you really should check out the lighting effect when choosing your lighting...
just sayin'
SHAKING, NOT STIRRING
Ken-Dogger: Hey there Hans, you playing?
Hans: Not really, I’m avoiding…
KD: Wha…?
H: Yeah, some bad karma in the world in the Middle East, we’re gonna need to be careful where we play for a while
KD: So right Hans, we’re going to need to look out for each other
H: Yep, tensions high right now, KD, you got my back?
KD: I do Hans…I always do, taking care of each other…it’s our bond
H: You’re right Bro…Bond, Ja…naw Dude, just shakin’ ya, not stirring…
WHERE ARE WE ALL THE SAME?
Ken-Dogger: Morning Salvatore Dalimation
Salvatore D: Hey Bro, got a question.
KD: And?
SD: Why do some peeps pick on others?
KD: Usually, it’s to demean, or it is a way to make the pickers feel superior.
SD: Wow, why does one feel like they need to be better than others?
KD: Some kind of shortcoming they feel…
SD: I thought we were all the same in God’s eyes…
KD: Salvi, that’s just the commercial.
BONDING...IT DOES A BODY GOOD
Ken-Dogger: Morning Scruffy, what is up?
Scruffy: Dude, I was just thinkin’ about Taxi Driver.
KD: The what?
S: You know, that Scorsese thing about relationships.
KD: About bizarre relationships, where you going with this?
S: No, I was more thinking about Travis feeling so alone in a populated city.
KD: Lots of peeps feel lonely, even in crowds.
S: Well, we need to build connections, they bond.
KD: Bond away Scruffy, Bond away…
THINGS TO PONDER
“Satellite interference ... by 2030, 75,000 satellites will be orbiting earth: ‘We are witnessing a dramatic, fundamental and perhaps semi-permanent transformation of the night sky without historical precedent and with limited oversight.’ Goodbye night sky ...” – SPB
SPREADING JOY
After Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, families in the United Kingdom opened their doors to Ukrainian refugees as part of the Homes for Ukraine program. This allowed people to quickly sponsor and take individuals into their homes long-term. Now, as many of these Ukrainian families are moving on to their own homes in the UK, one artist has come up with a special way to commemorate the bonds forged during the experience.
Cartoons like this enrage me as they fail to capture what is really happening with immigration and the need for immigration.
But also, the DEMS just continue to be stupid on their messaging...
There is opportunity here...
Dems should be on a message of planting seeds for growth, not giving away free stuff, IMO.
Ken-Dogger: Hey Clyde, what has your interest?
Clyde: America Bro…Such beauty
KD: It is spectacular, there is so much to appreciate
Clyde: No matter where you are, you can find beauty in the land.
KD: So true, hopefully we can protect it.
C: Why wouldn’t we do that? Why wouldn’t we save this beauty for all Americans?
KD: All Americans? Not sure that’s the goal anymore.
C: That’s sad, all this beauty, all this country…
KD: Yes, and we seem to want to trade it for one hollow man.
