She called some neighbors to see if they had put the skeleton in the tree. They hadn't.

I finally confessed and we had a great laugh about it.

BUT NOW I'M PERPLEXED

Do they make Santa outfits for skeletons?

Life with the Dogger

The Mikster and I don't do a lot of outdoor decorating for seasonal events. We have Everlights on the house so you can concoct any lighting arrangement you want, and that has been enough.

During Halloween this year, I was left unsupervised in Walmart and a small skeleton somehow landed in my cart. When I got to self checkout, I was stuck and had to buy it. I put it in one of our trees and didn't tell the Mikster.

She thought for days we were being targeted.

Will DOGE in its quest to rid the US government of inefficiency find there IS efficiency in the development of the MORALITY POLICE?

And under what Department will this new agency fall?

Too Many Toys

Vox | Anna North. Toys have gotten cheaper in recent decades, and sophisticated logistics systems enable long-distance toy-gifting—just two reasons why kids seem to have so many toys.

Personal Achievement...

Played Coral Canyon with my Golf Wife, Carrie, yesterday.

Shot a 77 on a par 72 course.

38 on the front, 39 on the back.

3 years into this sport, I think I'm getting the hang of it.

The Original Iron Maiden, Margaret Thatcher, resigned on this date in 1990.

Historybook: Author Jack London dies (1916); Tennis star and social activist Billie Jean King born (1943); President John F. Kennedy assassinated (1963); Author C.S. Lewis dies (1963).

"A champion is afraid of losing. Everyone else is afraid of winning."

- Billie Jean King

I knew today seemed familiar for a reason. JFK was shot on this date in 1963. Heard this while sitting in my 7th grade Social Studies classroom with Mrs. Radding.

Any truth to the just self-created rumor that Matt Gaetz is going to reprise this song?

Umm, Tom Tom Club...good music

Global petroleum production and consumption are at an all-time high, while 2024 is set to be the hottest year on record, trumping last year's record heat. Science tells us that the worst impacts of the climate emergency still can be avoided if urgent and ambitious action is taken.

...AND THE USA JUST ELECTED A NON-BELIEVING REGIME

Amy Goodman on COP29

These difficult times recall the words of twentieth-century philosopher Antonio Gramsci, imprisoned by the Italian fascist Mussolini for 12 years, until his death. In his Prison Notebooks, translated from Italian, Gramsci wrote:

"The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born. Now is the time of monsters."

I'm a good sticker, if you need me to stick it...Hey, I'm a Helper.

Ken-Dogger: Morning Pretzel

Pretzel: Hey Dogger, what are we going to get into today?

KD: Not sure, but I'm not sitting around here.

P: You want some action?

KD: I need action, I don't do well just sittin'.

P: I do well just watchin' you Bro; it brings me joy.

KD: Well, aren't we fortunate, we can find JOY in what we do.

P: Listen Dogger, that's no small feat.

I guess I missed out...

I never pursued money for money's sake.

I focused on my work (education/military) and happiness, and I felt I was paid appropriately in that endeavor.

Never got swept up in being able to die with the biggest money hill.
