KEEP 'EM SAFE
Ken-Dogger: Would you just look at that, a mother protecting her pup...America always finds out there is no more dangerous place than the space between a mother and her pups
Mother: Shh, puppy's sleepin...
KD: (Whispering) Okay, Momma...You keep him safe, it's what you do
Morning Fellow Peeps,
Ken-Dogger: Morning Theodore
Theodore: Hey Bro, well?
KD: Well, what, Theo?
T: You looking for a new job?
KD: Why would you say that?
T: Dude, you’re a poll taker, you dudes were off again.
KD: It’s not an exact science…
T: Bro, nothing is…
KD: You’re right, Theo…Nothing is.
From 2018...As you know, HATE LINGERS...
Ken-Dogger: Come on Butchie, let's get up this morn.

B: No matter what, HATE LINGERS...
VOTE...With LOVE in your Heart
Ken-Dogger: Morning, good to see you guys leading your masters to their civic duty today.
Pups: 2 bark approval, one shows disgust, and the other just ignores
KD: Okay, okay, okay, hope you helped your masters make a good choice.
Pups: We did, we told them the love you take is equal to the love you make
KD: With love in their heart, they will make the right choice.
Ken-Dogger: Look at you Chauncy, not sure how you can sleep.
Chauncy: ZZZ
KD: You DO know there is a lot going on in the world. There’s this crazy, unresolved election, there’s a pandemic, there’s record unemployment and a stalled global economy for most.
C: ZZZ
KD: What’s that? You’re still sleeping?
C: ZZZ
KD: No wait, he awakens…Hey Bud, how can you sleep in all this turmoil?
C: Bro, (yawning and stretching, he leans forwards and speaks) my world hasn’t changed…
GET BEYOND THE LOOK...
Morning Peeps,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Jupiter
Jupiter: A question…Do I look miserable to you?
KD: Right now, you look sleepy, I guess sometimes, but not all the time.
J: I must have that vibe
KD: It’s the look Buddy, you got the look
J: But I’m much more than the look
KD: Some peeps can’t get beyond the look
J: They’ll never know me then, will they?
KD: Sadly, no, but that’s where some peeps are…
Morning Peeps,
ADJUSTMENTS
Ken-Dogger: Hey there Teacup
Teacup: What up Dog?
KD: Dealing with time changes, bodies will be adjusting…
T: We adjust daily, it’s just one more…
KD: That’s a good point
T: What’s that?
KD: Life being a series of adjustments…
T: Seems some are more monumental than some others…
KD: I guess it also means it’s more chances to get it right.
FREEDOM HAS DUTIES...ONE OF 'EM IS VOTING
Ken-Dogger: Hey Chex, what are you doing?
Chex: Dude, I saw you checking your voting roster and practicing your selections.
KD: Voting is the hallmark of democracy Chex, everyone should be voting.
Chex: Dude, that's why I'm practicing.
KD: Chex, sorry man, dogs can't vote. Regrettably, all citizens can't vote, but those who can, should.
YOU JUST REACH OUT, THAT'S ALL IT TAKES
Morning Peeps,
Ken-Dogger: Duke, what you got there buddy?
Duke: She's my new special friend, my brother
KD: Wow, Duke, just wow, you DO know kittens/cats are your natural enemy.

KD: So how'd you two enemies become fast friends?
D: I reached out, my brother, I just reached out...
HOW MANY CANS OPENED AT ONCE?
Morning Opportunity Seekers,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Kita
Kita: Dogger, this great resignation is puzzling.
KD: IKR, lots of job openings.
K: Well, seems the pandemic widened eyes for many, they saw opportunity.
KD: Peeps want choices, like working from home.
K: They want to get paid for working from home? Who’s gonna mention this to housewives?
KD: Kita, could we just open one can of worms at a time.
There ARE Scarier Days...
Ken-Dogger: Whoa, just a minute there Snickers, you got your costume on already?
Snickers: Yea man, love this day and costuming...This is the scariest day in America

Snickers: Scarier day isn't it?
KD: Yep, it is...
TIME TRAVELERS
Ken-Dogger: Hello Dolly
Dolly: Hey Bro, was just thinking about time.
KD: Huh?
D: Well, it’s the same 60 minutes in an hour, but you all seem to experience it differently.
KD: You mean time doesn’t pass the same for all of us?
D: Doesn’t seem so, some are frazzled, some are unfazed in the same time period.
KD: So, you’re saying it’s a choice how you view the time you have?
D: It’s a choice how you use your time, hopefully a conscious one.
HEY PEEPS, LOVE EACH OTHER
Ken-Dogger: Hey Buddy, aww, I'm sorry didn't realize you're still sleeping
Buddy: ZZZZZZZZZZ
KD: Dude, I'm keepin' you there with your Cuddles. If I awaken you, you'll only see Americans debating which side's hate is more vitriolic.
Buddy: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
KD: Sleep on Dude, love resides here...
LET'S DO IT CIVILLY

KD: Okay, and why?
B: Well, remember when he says “You’re damn right I did”
KD: Yes, Ol’ Jack thought he had moral authority over regulations.
B: Well, you might want to remind those peeps who held planning meetings for a coup.
KD: Good point, thinkin’ you’re right doesn’t make it so…
