ISO COUSINS: Cousins are disappearing in Canada as the size of families shrinks, a new study showed. In 2095, the average Canadian 15-year-old girl will have 3.6 living cousins, down from 15.3 in 1950. Researchers fear kids will miss out on important developmental stages without those relatives, like learning to make fart sounds during funerals.

Could it simply be politicians don't worry about their non-action
because it is grounded in America's non-action?

WHEN THE DOGGER FASHIONED A BOOT
Ken-Dogger: Morning Rocco, why the look?
Rocco: What is that black thing on your foot?
KD: Oh that, it’s a boot, looks like the Dogger Man might have broken his toe/foot yesterday.
R: You don’t know? I think I’d know…
KD: No, I know…that’s what the throbbing reminds me it is…
R: Can I see the throbbing?
KD: No, but I can ensure you feel it…
R: I’ll pass bro…

Using axes, they bust open every piece of wood, but find no drugs.
The phone rings at Adrian's house.
"Hey, Adrian! Did the FBI come?"
"Yeah!"
"Did they chop your firewood?"
"Yep."
"Great, now it's your turn to call. I need my garden plowed."

Get Things Done
The phone rings at FBI headquarters. "Hello?"
"Hello, is this the FBI?"
"Yes. What do you want?"
"I'm calling to report my neighbor Adrian! He is hiding drugs inside his firewood."
"Thank you very much for the call, sir."
The next day, the FBI agents descend on the neighbor's house. They search the shed where the firewood is kept.

He and P moved to pass legislation which effectively allowed the hiring of senate printers.
Imagine that a filibuster over something as silly as the hiring of printers!
Bun Man said "This leads me to believe today's Congress is the direct evolution of learned behavior..."
Mr. Purple also said "Yea, learned helplessness..."

ON this date in 1841 - The first continuous filibuster in the U.S. Senate began.
It lasted until March 11th.
US Senators from Delaware Bun Man and Mr. Purple, both diehard progressives, were instrumental in breaking up the filibuster on March 11th.
Apparently, Bun Man's fave lady at the time had a birthday on March 12th and Bun was not going to miss it.

Bun and P decided right then and there they would devote the remainder of their days to painting nudes.
Their painting never really got any better, but oh, the inspiration of seeing all those lasses traipse down their stairs sans clothes was truly epic.

ON this date in 1913 - The famous French painting "Nude Descending a Staircase", by the French artist, Marcel Duchamp, was displayed at an "Armory Show" in New York City.
Bun Man and Mr. Purple, budding artists, attended the show and were mesmerized by the painting.

Morning Peeps,
ON this date in 1735 - The first opera was performed in America.
The work was "Flora" (or "Hob in the Well") and it was presented in Charleston, SC.
Co-written by Bun Man and Mr. Purple, the story was inspired by an escapade Bun had w/ Flora after Flora hobbin' ze nobbin' near the town well.
Originally entitled "Hob Job near the Well", the Boyz decided to be a little more clandestine w/ the title--for obvious reasons.

The November 2024 election will be decided in large part by turnout. While pundits have emphasized the supposedly depressed and divided Democratic base, they have largely missed the Democratic advantage in organizing.
