You're The Best Thing
PORKY'S PLAYPEN
ON this date in 1989 - Two men went over the 176-foot-high Niagara Falls in a barrel.
Jeffrey Petkovich and Peter Debernardi were the first to ever survive the Horseshoe Falls.
Actually, they were the second team, Bun Man and Mr. Purple had rolled off the falls the night before after the 'Before Party' for Jeff and Peter when they mistakenly thought the barrel was a portal to get to Porky's Playpen...
Helluva Ride!
BEACH BOYS LORE
ON this date in 2012 - Mike Love fires Brian Wilson and Al Jardine from the Beach Boys and decides to tour on his own.
Fans tweet Brian Wilson is the Beach Boys.
Other fans tweet it's like when Bun Man and Mr. Purple were kicked out of Super Heads in Time, the seminal 60s garage band, the band just didn't sound like S-H-I-T without the Boyz.
While cheap toys were the first products to come of this unholy alliance, the trickle effect was unstoppable.
Bun said at the time "We need to hold fast to AMERICAN CAPITALISM, not just a free-market economy or this bullshit globalization."
2/2
ON this date in 1928 - The U.S. announced that it would recognize the Nationalist Chinese Government.
US Senators Bun Man and Mr. Purple, while supportive of the recognition, cautioned against what they saw as an opportunity which will be grabbed by greed-hungry US companies to outsource jobs.
1/2
ON this date in 1995 - Time Warner severed its ties with its rap label Interscope rather than release the debut album by Tha Dogg Pound.
Seems Bun Man and Mr. Purple, top Execs at TW, were huge, I mean huge, Cleveland Browns fans and the Boyz said "The Dog Pound is a Cleveland Icon, and we will not desecrate that icon to debut an album..."
All turned out to be right in the world, haven't heard much from That Dogg Pound group anyway...
Who needs another group called Dogg Pound Gangsta Crips?
ON this date in 1973 - U.S. Vice President Spiro Agnew said he would not resign after he pled "no contest" to a charge of tax evasion.
Federal prosecutors Bun Man and Mr. Purple were stunned when they heard Spiro say "Nolo Contende" to persistent questions on his tax evasion.
Bun Man would later tell Mr. P, "This is the start of politicians telling Americans the lies they want to hear..."
He did resign on October 10th.
YA GOTTA KEEP MIXING IT UP
Morning Routine Peeps,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Brutus
Brutus: Ah, Dogger, a little help…I’m not that big.
KD: Maybe not in size, but in heart, you’re big.
B: You ready to start the week?
Get your routines started?
KD: You makin’ fun of my routines?
B: Dude, you’re so predictable.
KD: Routines keep me regulated, what’s the issue?
B: Are your routines becoming routine?
KD: When they do, I mix ‘em up…routines should never become routine.
Legendary athlete Babe Didrikson Zaharias died on this date in 1956.
"The formula for success is simple: practice and concentration, then more practice and more concentration."

And in the distance, Billy Idol sang, "MORE, MORE, MORE"
