Morning Peeps,

Big day yesterday at Sand Caves in Kanab, Little Hollywood Museum and Trails End restaurant, Belly of the Dragon and then Canyon Overlook in Zion.

But, I did get this swell card from rapper CLARENCE T who is on vacay with his bud Harlan...

Then and now...

It's a dry heat

MAGA...Improving the Do Loop into the DODO LOOP.

“MAGA crowd is resentful of those who they perceive make fun of them because they see them as fanatics who think little and shout a lot. But they don't register the reason why other people think that way about them. They are too busy insulting, harassing, threatening and mocking to do it.”-PM

GET YO HAPPY FEET ON

Morning Dancers,

#pups4peace

Lucky: Let it lift you off the ground, starry eyes and love is all around
Ken-Dogger: Lucky, singing already…
L: I fell like dancin’, I wanna dance the night away
KD: It’s been a while…
L: We really don’t take enough opportunities to dance.
KD: But there aren’t many places to do that?
L: You can dance anywhere, with music or not…it’s about the warmth of motion
KD: It does soothe…just watch the feet.

SOMETIMES, THE PUPS STRATEGIZE

#pups4peace

"I know bro...This puppy stuff can wear thin quickly...Don't worry, you'll get your turn too, you too can look silly doing 'people' stuff like driving..."

"Dude, we'll get 'em back...you know the strategy, poop 'em where they are...See how much driving they want then."

THIS IS WHY I DON'T DIY...

REALISM!

PUPS AND YOUTH

#pups4peace

Nope, not happening, not gettin' up, not now, not next hour, maybe not today...

I'm a puppy, oh the randomness of youth...

NO REGRETS...REALLY?

#pups4peace

Ken-Dogger: Morning Ollie, why the sad face?
Ollie: Was just thinking about that ‘No Regrets’ statement.
KD: Huh?
O: Yep, WH says they have no regrets about clearing out peaceful protestors.
KD: Wow, guess this means the whippings will continue…
O: Oh, you mean no regrets leads to no resolution?
KD: ‘Bout the size of it, and no resolution seems to be what carries the day now.
O: Yep, right into the arms of therapists, right into their arms…

WE OFTEN SUFFER THROUGH NOT CHANGING...

Morning Friends,

#pups4peace

Ken-Dogger: Hey Dagger
Dagger: Stop it, stop it…
KD: Stop what?
D: This mixture of white and black, I wanna be monochromatic.
KD: And why is that?
D: White peeps don’t like my black, and Black peeps don’t like my white.
KD: Sounds like it is their problem…
D: It truly is, but they make me suffer for it.
KD: It is easier to make you suffer, than to have them change.

Morning Peeps,

WORD

#pups4peace

Pup 1: "Do you smell that, what odoriferous smell.."
Pup 2: "I know right, smells like victory..."
Pup 1: "Dude, you gotta stop watching Apocalypse Now..."
Pup 2: "Dude, you gotta stop using words like odoriferous..."

LADIES,

IT IS PELLUCID WHAT AND WHO YOU ARE TO THE GOP.

US Peeps and Democracy Lovers,

IT'S TIME TO STEP UP or some of us will be stepping into cages.

KIDS, AND PUPS, SAY THE DARNEST THINGS...

#PUPS4PEACE

"Someday Ma, someday, you see that pasture there, I'm gonna run all over that bad boy, gonna make that pasture my bitch..."

Ma: "Wha, where'd you hear that..."

"Daddy, Ma, you wanna hear the other things he says..."

Dad: "Junior, you're gonna want to pipe down now..."

SOME JUST DO IT FOR THE DRAMA

#pups4peace

Ken-Dogger: Morning Zach, Jack, and Mac
Zach: Dude, we've got an emergency
KD: State your emergency
Jack: Dude, you see this box? Way, way too small
KD: Okay, we'll get a bigger box, not sure that's an emergency
Mac: Should we make it a National Emergency, seems that's the only thing that spurs action now.
KD: Well, no, that won't help either...Most times, it's just adjustments need to be made, doesn't call for all that
Z: Some just like drama I guess.

#pups4peace

Ken-Dogger: Morning Rocco, you gotta game?
Rocco: Yes, just pick up now though…the Bigs are off-limits
KD: Such a shame we don’t have baseball now.
R: Well, the players and the owners can’t seem to figure things out.
KD: Yes, and while they bicker, fans just sit and wait.
R: You going to a stadium once they start playing?
KD: Doubt it, but I’m high risk, others may go, it’s just can we remember the love of the game?
R: Love of the Game? Oh, you mean before greed and power took over.

BUILDING CHEMISTRY??

#pups4peace

Ken-Dogger: (BOOM)…(BOOM) What was THAT?
Sly: Dude, just some experiments gone awry.
KD: Oh, so I shouldn’t worry? What are you about?
S: Makin’ me a LADY…
KD: You are? And pourquoi?
S: Well, I heard you talk about chemistry in a relationship, thought I’d have at it.
KD: This isn’t how you do it, it’s built thru exchanges and give-and-take.
S: Sheesh, sounds like hard work, let me get back to the lab.
KD: You can push on or you can retreat, the choice is yours.

REMINDER FROM NICK ANDERSON

“It's been 80 years since allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy in order to stamp out fascism and make the world safe for democracy. As Mark Twain reportedly said, 'history doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.' Make sure you storm the voting booths in November to help preserve democracy.”-NA

COULD WE JUST TRY TO BE COOL WITH EACH OTHER AGAIN?

#pups4peace

Ken-Dogger: Hey Jasper, what up?
Jasper: You remember that big barkin’ dog Mad Max down the street?
KD: I do J, why?
J: Well, every time we walk, Max just barks and barks and barks, it’s tiring.
KD: IKR
J: So I moseyed down there and we spoke. Turns out he’s just protecting his turf.
KD: So you told him you’re not a threat?
J: I did, turns out talking through it, led to us being cool with each other.
KD: Imagine that…
