Money, money, money...MONEY

ON this date in 1971 - The U.N. General Assembly voted to expel Taiwan and admit mainland China.

US Ambassador Bun Man, based on expert testimony from Globalization expert Mr. Purple, voted against Taiwan's expulsion.

But China had based their acceptance on the expulsion, and you know as well as I do, money talks and principles walk in global capitalism...

ON this date in 1988 - Chico and Bobby DeBarge were convicted of trafficking cocaine in Michigan.

Living in the Wild, Wild West and paling around w/ Bun Man and Mr. Purple, local cokeheads, the DeBarges got a little carried away w/ themselves which led to their arrest.

But let's be real, the 80s were made for cocaine...

Over-produced songs and more friggin' dancers on stage than men who've been w/ Brittany Spears...

Goin' to a Class of 80 Something reunion next weekend, I wonder...

Bear #399 was killed by an auto the other day.

Very sad day in our household, we loved hearing of each year's new cubs.

And yet, there are women who don't see it.

just sad, IMO

Four years later to the day, the Stones appeared on Ed Sullivan for the first time.

The Boyz went on to manage Chad & Jeremy feeling the Stones had no staying power.

Big, big mistake...

How many times can you really listen to "Everyone's Gone to the Moon"?

TO THE MOON...

ON this date in 1960 - Mick Jagger and Keith Richards accidentally met on a train.

They had known each other previously from school.

Deftly managed by Bun Man and Mr. Purple Productions, the Rolling Stones would emerge as true 'dark' threats to the Beatles.

Hopefully, the Nasty Girls show up for the USA and vote the Blue Wave...

For Freedom

For Dignity

For Choice

For the true Pro-Life

APPRECIATE THE GIG YOU GOT

Ken-Dogger: Don't even...
Dixiee: Would you look at that Dude, my 'bro' has his own place.
KD: Hey Baby Girl, you really want your own place?
Dixiee: Naw, I kinda like my gig, and sleeping in bed with my two fave peeps, that's killer.
KD: Thought you might say that.

If she were truly a sociopath, she would be much more likable, and she isn't.

ON this date in 2019 Astros fire Brandon Taubman for directing inappropriate comments to female reporters.

It's really a shame he wasn't the US President then, he'd still have a job...

Morning Peeps,

ART...there IS a purpose

Historybook: Artist Pablo Picasso born (1881); Benjamin O. Davis Sr. becomes first Black general in US Army (1940); Katy Perry born (1984); Hall of Fame golfer Payne Stewart dies in plane crash (1999).

"The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls."

- Pablo Picasso

@sazemisery

Just think what the world would be like if I didn't dose by the minute.

@gemswinc

I had never heard of it before now.

Gotta run Peeps, got an early teetime this AM

Need to stretch and clothe

Peace Love Dove Democracy Peeps

YOU GO GIRL

Saying “Mary Jane” instead of marijuana makes more sense now. For the first time, more women are consuming cannabis than men, leading to a major shift in how companies market their products, Reuters reported. Women make up 55% of users on the weed-centric app Jointly, while women aged 19 to 30 are blazing more often than men in the same age group, per a survey from the US National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).

Historybook: Black Thursday US stock market crash, exchange falls 11% in one day (1929); Jackie Robinson dies (1972); Rapper Drake born (1986); Rosa Parks dies (2005); Bloody Friday worldwide stock market crash with most indexes dropping 10% in single day (2008).

"Memories of our lives, of our works, and our deeds will continue in others."

- Rosa Parks

ON this date in 1948 - The term "cold war" was used for the first time.

It was in a speech by Bernard Baruch before the Senate War Investigating Committee.

Actually, Mr. Baruch had overheard a conversation between Bun Man and Mr. Purple where Bun was describing his recent marital discord w/ his 4th wife.

Bun uttered..."It's chilling sometimes, but then we have great make-up sex; it's like a cold war."

Mr. Baruch just took a little editorial privilege.

ON this date in 1901 - Daredevil Anna Edson Taylor became the first person to go over Niagara Falls in a wooden barrel. She was 63 years old.

Little known at the time, Anna was actually pining over her rebuke from Bun Man. Bun had told Mr. Purple and I that "Anna, she's a cutie, but she's bound to fall hard..."

How prophetic he was; Anna would go on to become one in a series of Bun's Exes who gained more notoriety after him than while w/ him.

Apparently, this happens to a lot of dudes...

ON this date in 2014, I was picking up this baby from a dealership in Elizabethtown PA...

Out w/ the old (white Vision in the rear) and in w/ the new...Roadmaster, baby...

CEO Kelly Ortberg told investors in his first public call yesterday he plans to prioritize a culture shift to reboot the company's image.
