HERE COMES THE FRIDAY PUZZLE

ARE YOU READY FOR IT?

Didn't I tell you
What I believe?
Did somebody say that
A love like that won't last?

Didn't I give you
All that I've got to give, baby?

I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
Gave you love

I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love

I keep crying
I keep trying for you
There's nothing like you and I, baby

This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love

Sade
No ordinary love

P: I want time to let it resolve...it needs to breathe.

KD: Let's give it some time then Petie, we've got that.

P: Yes, Dogger, yes, we do.

BEAVER?? DID YOU SAY BEAVER???

Good morning. This is your final chance of the year to bask in lunar splendor. Tonight is the last supermoon—aka when the moon is full and its orbit is at its closest to Earth—until October 2025. This one is called “Beaver Moon,” because right around now is when beavers fortify their dams for the winter.

South Africa Miners

South African authorities have restricted food and water supplies to an estimated 350 to 4,000 illegal miners in a shaft in the country's North West province. The standoff is the latest flashpoint in a government policy to end illegal mining by closing off supply lines, forcing workers to resurface and face arrest.

MARGARET KNOWS BEST...

WE'RE MALLEABLE

Historybook: Articles of Confederation is adopted by Continental Congress (1777); Artist Georgia O’Keeffe born (1887); Two million people protest Vietnam War across the US (1969); Famed anthropologist Margaret Mead dies (1978); World population tops 8 billion (2022).

"Human nature is almost unbelievably malleable, responding accurately and contrastingly to contrasting cultural conditions."

- Margaret Mead

ON this day in 1932 - British singer, actress, and songwriter, who (in the US) was sometimes referred to as "the First Lady of the British Invasion," Petula Clark, is born in Ewell, Surrey, England.

Bun Man just turned to me and Mr. Purple and said, "I remember this music phase. We were transitioning from Pat Boone to Zeppelin."

Mr. P remarked, "Yes, we had to go through this phase to get to the real rockers."

Bun countered, "Yes, we had to endure Captain & Tennille, Little Buddy.

It was 1440 Digest

Separately, Trump announced Rep. Matt Gaetz (R, FL-1) as his pick for attorney general, pending Senate confirmation. The announcement prompted Gaetz to resign immediately from Congress, effectively ending the ethics probe against him. Gaetz was the subject of a since-dropped Justice Department probe and led the effort to oust former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R, CA-20).
