AT TIMES, THE QUESTIONS DO RUN TOO DEEP
Plato: There are times when all the world's asleep, the questions run too deep, for such a simple man
Ken-Dogger: Plato, dude, you're kinda heavy this AM my man...
Plato: Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned, I know it sounds absurd, please tell me who I am
Ken-Dogger: Dude, you're a pup becoming a dog
Plato: Whew, this thinkin' stuff is hard...
Lady Day: Hey Dogger, you okay?
Ken-Dogger: Yes LD, but a little sad, My Dad would have been 107 today.
LD: He led an exceptional life…WWII vet, first college graduate in his family, and went on to be a big deal in Education.
KD: Yes, a stellar life…He accomplished much.
LD: What do you like to remember about him?
KD: His humanity…He never forgot how his struggle to succeed is everyman’s struggle.
LD: I hope I’m remembered for my dogmanity.
KD: You will be Lady, you will be.
Mike Luckovich got a glimpse last week...
He looked inside the RNC/T HQ for insight into their conspiracy theories.
He found it.
SOME THINGS YOU CAN'T TELL 'EM
Buster: Take a message to Mary, but don't tell her where I am, take a message to Mary, but don't say I'm in a jam
Peaches: Dude, what should I tell her?
Buster: You can tell her I had to see the world, or tell her that my ship set sail, you can say she better not wait for me, but don't tell her I'm in jail
Peaches: What was that again? What not to tell her?
Buster: Oh, don't tell her I'm in jail
(homage to Message to Mary by Everly Bros)
For the Single Ladies out there, be careful on the propositions...
COMMITMENT...FOR THE WIN
Morning Heroes,
Ken-Dogger: Whoa, Shock Jock, you all ready?
Shock Jock: Yep, heading out.
KD: Big race today, World-Class peeps here.
SJ: Hence, the suit Bro, lookin’ my best.
KD: These athletes are amazing, strong commitment.
SJ: They’re in prison?
KD: No, they are committed to their training.
SJ: Gets them over their hurdles, doesn’t it?
KD: Commitment to perseverance to success, simple strategy, heroic effort.
SJ: But everyone can be a Hero…
LIFE CYCLE OF A REPUBLICAN ASSHOLE STOKING VIOLENCE DAILY.
“It's ironic that the very person the Secret Service is trying to protect from political violence is trafficking in hateful rhetoric that fans the flames of more political violence.”-RR

Peeps,
The USA can't keep living at this angst level...
Recommend you find ways to rachet down periodically.
LOVE...it rocks your world, if you let it in.
Whitie: I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles, And the heavens open every time she smiles, And when I come to her that's where I belong, Yet I'm running to her like a river's song
Brownie: He loves me unconditionally
Whitie: She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
Brownie: Love rocks my world, yours too if you let it...
Morning,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Chex, what’s going on?
Chex: Dude, fighting at Europa League match, belts and fists
KD: Well, shucks, peeps are getting out of hand.
C: Naw, this is just European ‘goon’ soccer…The Fans provide their own sport
KD: Fans get so amped anymore, what do you think it is?
C: Misplaced anger, it’s always misplaced anger
KD: So, anger just needs to get placed correctly?
C: Anger needs to seek its source and deal with that.
KD: And this is why misplacement continues…
GIVE & TAKE
Ken-Dogger: Hey Rex, morning, a question?
Rex: Well yes, are you my friend?
KD: What kind of question is that? Of course, I’m your friend. I help you, I give you food, and I keep you healthy, I’d say that qualifies.
R: Wow, didn’t realize it was all that.
KD: It’s not too much, it’s a friendship cost.
R: Oh, you mean sometimes you give a little and then you get a little…
KD: Yes, mutuality…a balance between, not a layering of things done.
R: Hmmm, I like friendships.
YOU DON'T LOSE YOUR DNA
Ken-Dogger: Hey Butkus, where you been?
Butkus: Did a little vacay with my peeps
KD: I see you're reacquainting with Bopsie...
Butkus: Dude, I did vacay, I didn't lose my DNA...
WE ALL START SOMEWHERE
Ken-Dogger: Hey Chuckie, what’s up?
Chuckie: I’m not coming out.
KD: What’s going on? You scared?
C: I am, there’s some crazy shite going on all around.
KD: And you think staying there will help you deal with this?
C: This is how I cope, it’s the best I can do.
KD: But you’re not overcoming your fears, you’re giving in to them.
C: We all start at certain points…
SOME THINGS YOU HAVE TO GROW THROUGH
Ken-Dogger: Aww, it’s nice to get out and walk, hey Beto…
Beto: Jury’s still out…
KD: What do you mean? It’s a glorious day…
B: The day is cool, wasn’t talkin’ ‘bout that…
KD: Well, what then?
B: Textures bro, textures…
KD: Textures?
B: Dude, this wetness, these overnight webs…other dogs’ droppings, it’s enough to…
KD: Okay, okay, okay…Booties?
B: Naw, I’m gonna tough it out, some things you just gotta grow through.
Morning Life Lovers,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Yeyo, you singing?
Yeyo: Love is all around us, and so the feeling grows…
KD: That’s odd
Y: What, love being all around?
KD: Yep, there’s so much death now, and now the kids.
Y: That’s why I’m singing about LOVE, it must be LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.
KD: If it were abuse, the Government would step in, so it can’t be abuse.
Y: It must be LOVE harming these kids then…
KD: LOVE isn’t supposed to kill, but that’s in a LOGICAL WORLD.
Morning Peeps,
Hey US Citizens, perhaps we should talk with the Brits about MAD KING GEORGE...
For the insight
BLESSINGS
Morning Peeps...Count Your Blessings
Ken-Dogger: What’s up JR?
JR: Just wondering, am I blessed?
KD: Wow, heavy stuff for a Sunday…Let’s see, you’re merciful, you’re pure of heart, and you’re a peacemaker, the big 3.
JR: I feel it but sometimes I also feel cursed.
KD: Jesus himself said, “Every tree is known by its’ own fruit.”
JR: So, I’m a cherry?
KD: No Silly, it’s what you give…
and you give mountains.
JR: I’m blessed…
What ended up as "I'm standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona...", started out as "Well I'm by some road ruin on a god-awful road in Arizonie..."😁
EVERYONE SEEKS BALANCE, EVEN THE ANIMALS THE IMMIGRANTS EAT
Ken-Dogger: Hey Ralph, what the…
Ralph: What?
KD: What’s up with the suitcase my buddy?
R: I’m out of here, going where I get attended to…
KD: What do you mean? We attend to you, you’re fed, walked, and loved.
R: But you are buying new stuff, going to new places, things are changin’.
KD: Yes, they are…So you want more love?
R: I just want balance Bro…
KD: Don’t we all Ralph, don’t we all.
Someone was talking earlier about GIRL MATH...
Here's one place where we need more of it...
