When MCs flew
Ken-Dogger: "Rufus, what in the name of things held dear do you have on?"
Rufus: "Dude, it's my biker outfit. I see how those lasses look at you when you're on the Indian, I'm thinkin' I'll rock a sidecar..."
Ken-Dogger: "Rufus, you look like something out of a dystopian sci fi movie, it's a motorcycle, not a flyin' machine..."
Rufus: "Dude, I've seen the way you drive that thing, you make it a flyin' machine..."
Ken-Dogger: "True, Dude, very true..."
DON'T TAKE A LICKING...
Ken-Dogger: "Scooter, what's up with the suit?"
Scooter: "Dude, it's Monday, who do you think puts bread on the table round here?"
KD: "I told your Union guys to hold out for social security..."
Scooter: "KD, our Union guys got hung up on the social part, thought it was just about licking..."
KD: "Scooter, it's about NOT taking a lickin'...Big, big difference."
Morning Money, more or less,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Doobie
Doobie: Did you see they have outbreaks at the Olympics
KD: I did, but you knew it was bound to happen.
D: I thought they had protocols in place.
KD: Apparently, the virus doesn’t follow protocols.
D: Tell me again why we’re holding Fan-Less Olympics?
KD: Money Doobie, it’s about the money…
D: And you know what, money isn’t going to get us through this.
Morning Peeps
Ken-Dogger: "Fluffy, hey boy, you gettin' up?"

They organize
Ken-Dogger: "Okay, come on guys, we're ready for our group picture, this will be soooo cute...Come on, guys, what's up with Cooter?"

Ken-Dogger: "Okay, reschedule, those 'medicinals' are wicked, he's out for a while..."
Shooter: "Better find a new hiding place, dude, we're organizing..."
Sharing reluctantly, because, well, you'll see...
Ken-Dogger: "Snuggles, stop w/ the face already..."
Snuggles: "Dude, you know why I'm lookin' like this, I can't understand where this Undude is headed?"
Ken-Dogger: "You mean, besides Hell...I don't know either, whether in trade, immigration or alliances, he's hellbent on destruction..."
Snuggles: "Dude, let me know when he says he's startin' to like dogs, that's my cue..."

CHOOSE YOUR HILL
Morning Hill Climbers,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Colossus
Colossus: Hey Dogger, I was thinking about just resting inside today.
KD: Has been pretty hot out.
C: Way too hot bro…my paws burn, you’re probably not going to like me too much today.
KD: Why’s that?
C: Most likely, I’m gonna go in places you no want me to go.
KD: You gonna go there?
C: We all gotta choose what hill we’re gonna die on.
REMEMBER THE LOOK...
Morning Warm-Hearted Souls,
Ken-Dogger: Morning Georgi the Corgi
GtC: (Why is he bothering me, I need to stay in bed)
KD: You ready to get up?
GtC: (Does it look like I’m ready to get up?)
KD: I’m getting up, I can’t lie in bed after I’m up.
GtC: (I’m sad for you Bro, I got this, the warmth soothes me…)
KD: I’ll let you stay in bed and rest.
GtC: (I gotta remember this look, for your warmth and mine)
Ken-Dogger: Hey Cicero
Cicero: Morning Bro, got a question…How will we learn now in schools?
KD: What do you mean? Oh, you’re talking Critical Race Theory aren’t you?
C: Yep…as I understand it, if something causes you stress or concern, we don’t teach it?
KD: I guess History does not exist now.
C: It does, we are just going to keep learning one side of it.
KD: Isn’t that how we got into this mess, learning only one side?
C: Oh, I get it…It IS the mess they are after…
Morning Peeps,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Max
Max: How you feelin’ this morning, was a nasty fall.
KD: It wasn’t a fall, it was a submission-my only choice.
M: You need to be more careful.
KD: You’re right, I need to accept some responsibility too, but damn, blocking the path?
M: You drive defensively, perhaps…
KD: I know, I know…apparently, it takes bruises and cuts to make me learn.
M: It’s alright by me, gives me more QT with you Bro
KD: Thanks Max, QT it is.
From 3 years ago, when we were packing for move
#pups4peace
Ken-Dogger: Queenie, come on, I need the box.
Queenie: But, but…Boxes are getting all the love right now.
KD: What do you mean?
Q: You and the Mikster are like a whirlwind now, boxing everything, did you remember I need attending?
KD: Well Yes, we have been feeding you and taking you outside.
Q: But you’re putting so much love and care into each box, I wanted some.
KD: You’ll get the love and care, maybe not right now, but it’s coming.
So, so, so, SO glad I'm a retired educator.
Good Morning to the Not Yet Frazzled,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Darcy, what’s with the look?
Darcy: Modeling how teachers will look in November this year.
KD: Why so?
D: Bro, have you seen these new laws on what can be taught?
KD: I have, going to be really ‘rich’ to see how emotion is controlled in a school.

IT'S ABOUT TO GO DOWN...
"Oh, you're getting all clean, you'll smell so fresh..."
"Ken-Dogger, you get that soap in my eye one more time and the shit will about to get real, you feel me player?"
"Come on, Snuffles, it's just a bath..."
"Let me explain the concept of shit gettin' real..."
Looks like DOGGY LOVE
Ken-Dogger: Morning Chaz
Chaz: Hey Dogger, let’s get this walk in…
KD: It has been hot, best to do stuff before it gets unbearable.
C: Let’s go to the park, see my buds.
KD: IDK, the parks full of people sleeping there.
C: Peeps sleep there?
KD: Yes, sometimes that’s all that they have.
C: Let’s still go, they probably need some doggy love.
KD: We ALL need doggy love.
SMELLY ACCUSATIONS
"I'm just gonna lay here and snicker. Why is that you might ask? Well, in the morning, right before my owner peeps awaken, I like to let out a 'smellie'...
They always accuse the other on this one, makes me smile..."
Morning Kissers,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Scruff
Scruff: Morning, where is that truck?
KD: Huh, what are you up to now?
S: I’m looking for that International truck.
KD: and why, pray tell?
S: Bro, it’s International Kissing Day.
KD: Scruff, I think that means global kissing, not a truck per se.
S: Sheesh, what is it with messaging…Even special days now are unclear.
KD: Pretty sure we’re not doing a day for kissing trucks.
S: Really sure?
KD: Not yet anyway…
YOU'RE KILLIN' ME SMALLS...
"Listen, I know Cuddles, it's not cool when there are 2 Mondays in the same week."
"Ken-Dogger, dude, how did this happen?"
"A Holiday made a break from a Monday, that's how..."
"Damn Non-Monday Holidays, damn having 2 Mondays in one week, no wonder we don't live as long as you all, You're killin' me, Smalls..."
Be a Snuffer
Morning Snuffers,
Ken-Dogger: Morning Prince
Prince: Hey Dogger, I’m just hangin’…
KD: Wanna go to the park?
P: Okay, but it's not as fun as it used to be. No one talks anymore.
KD: I know, it was nice when you could go and walk and just have random convos.
P: It’s getting to the point where saying hi is toxic.
KD: Everything does not have to be inflamed.
P: But a lot of peeps in the US are living off the inflammation.
KD: Then we’re gonna be snuffers and wipe it out.
There's a Reason...
"Ma, I get this whole acculturation thing and this puppy training, I think I now understand why holidays are spread out."
"Ma, how are we doing on seltzer water?"
