Morning Peeps,
LOVE...MAKE IT A QUEST
Ken-Dogger: Hey Georgio, you have a question?
Georgio: Naw...
KD: Your paws up, thought you had a question...
G: Okay, I was thinking, why do people hate?
KD: Lots of reasons, some peeps can't seem to find a place for their sorrow
G: I don't get it, there is so much love to give...
KD: I know, to me it's an orientation
G: To me, it's my quest...
Morning Peeps,
This from 2022, the similarities are striking...
And yet, that RePUTINcan group still exists in the USA.
Cheating...yes, got that down
Stealing...yes, got that down
Fighting...yes, got that down
Drinking, yes, getting that down as we speak...
And what COSO ladies want a little more Irish in 'em today?
MORE CARING
Happy StPD,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Poncho
Poncho: Hey Cisco, I mean Dogger
KD: it was pretty cool getting flowers yesterday from Farmer’s Dog.
P: Yep, Mikster had her eye raised.
KD: Yep, I was checking my email/texts for clues.
P: But Dixiee’s food company, that’s some orientation.
KD: It does reinforce their whole network of caring.
P: We need more caring networks…
KD: We do need more peeps who care, the care networking will come after that.
P: Hope so Bro, hope so.
Ken-Dogger: Morning Precious, you resting?
Precious: I’m tryin’ to, what’s all this activity?
KD: Oh that, we’re self-quarantining, we’ll be here more often
P: Cool, I’m playing more, I need some extra rations for that.
KD: Really?
P: Dude, we’re going to have to renegotiate some things
KD: I knew it was a bad idea to let you watch the NFL draft, all life is not transactional
P: Ah yes, but the life we live is negotiable…so I’m working it
KD: I like the way you work it…no diggity.
In the Pantheon of Great Cartoons, this one will be listed...
Sadly, it's why the USA still deals with Trump, Trumpism, and MAGA Wingnuts.
From 1994 to 1998, I was Principal of a K-12 school in Plainfield VT. I left in 98 to return to Delaware to become Principal of the High School where I graduated in 1968. I supervised teachers who taught me.
When I left VT, one of the custodians, a dear sweet salty woman named Carolyn wrote this Ballad of Ken.
I'm still friends with her on FB.
The Repub National Committee funds WATER...it seeks its own lowest level.
You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so, become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye
Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
LIVE BY A CODE
GW Carver won't mind if you use his code.
IT'S THE INDIFFERENCE...
Morning Rescuers,
Ken-Dogger: Morning Butkus, this is rich…
Butkus: What? Oh, the kickin’ back?
KD: Yes, the kicking back already, why so?
B: Bro, just chillin’…Waiting for American Rescue Plan to kick in.
KD: I hear there’s money already there left over from #45.
B: Heard that too, over a trillion.
KD: Damn, wonder why they didn’t use it to help Americans?
B: It’s called callous indifference…
KD: No, it’s called shameful.
When DJ and I were on the River Hall course Saturday, we were paired with a couple from Syracuse NY. As often happens during Golf, you find out about each other.
In the course of the conversation, they found out about our military connection as we served together often.
Dennis told them he served for 39 years, I replied 37 years. Real damn pleased to be able to say that.
SAY HI TO PI, or as I do, STAY HI ON PI...
Ken-Dogger: Dude, would you stop staring?
Dude: Wha?
KD: It's a constant thing, you never stop...
D: I'm pi
KD: You're pie?
D: Not that pie, this pi, I'm a constant...
KD: Oh, I get it, it's PI Day
D: You get me now?
KD: I get you, sometimes I can't take you...
The Waiting is the Hardest Part...
Morning Time Bending Friends,
Ken-Dogger: I’m tired, Wha…
Fluffer: Hey There Dogger
KD: Who are you?
F: I’m the Ghost of Daylight Savings Time.
KD: There’s a Ghost for that?
F: Dude, you don’t know the half of it…
KD: Can I get back the hour you stole?
F: It comes back in the Fall…
KD: That long?
F: Geez, you Humans, no one does delayed gratification anymore.
Sometimes I cluck, sometimes I...
Morning Springers and Chickies,
Ken-Dogger: Whoa Nellie, good run…
Nellie: You know it was, you see me panting
KD: I do, did I push you?
N: Dude, you’re always pushing
KD: I need to remember you’re still a pup.
N: And you need to remember you’re not a Spring Chicken.
KD: Okay, I do need to vary my training.
N: Learning is never a straight path…
KD: Cluck, cluck.
