ON this date in 1965 - French President Charles de Gaulle announced that France was withdrawing from NATO to protest the domination of the U.S. in the organization.
UN interpreters Bun Man and Mr. Purple were in the chamber that day, but Bun Man was having trouble staying awake.
When de Gualle's announcement was made, Bun was not paying strict attention to the proceedings, so he asked Mr. P for some help interpreting the events for his host country.

KD: There were, we just maneuvered successfully
D: Maybe more peeps just drive side-by-sides
Morning Peeps,
It's a strange Monday for me. I'm normally adjusting after working both days of the weekend, but my schedule got adjusted so now I'm working Sat/Tues schedule.
We'll see how this goes...
I am, surprise, surprise, playing Golf this morning though.
Jeez, I only got to play twice last week, I must make amends...
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a new set of clubs, my friends all have new ones, I must make amends.
A BUN STORY...
Came home from the gym this AM and Bun Man was in the backyard serenading a squirrel.
I said, "Just what are you doing?"
And Bun replied "Come on, lay off your bro' dude, I'm just trying to get a nut"...
I gotta limit his listening to XM47 The Heat, way too many sensual songs, it's drivin' the boy crazy wild!!
Version 2
ON this date in 1974 - Over the vehement objections of Senators Bun Man and Mr. Purple, U.S. President Ford granted an unconditional pardon to former U.S. President Nixon...
And the pardon train continues to this day where political expediency takes precedence over what is the HARD RIGHT for America.
ON this date in 1974 - U.S. President Ford granted an unconditional pardon to former U.S. President Nixon.
At the time, DE Senator Bun Man remarked "Only in America, can you pull off the biggest crime in govt. and because it's white-collar crime, you get away w/ it..."
Fellow Senator Mr. Purple then said "We don't need more prison cells, we need more white-collar crime..."
Whereupon someone left the door open and many, many, many congressmen entered...
CONTINUING MY HUSBAND TRAINING SERIES...
Cause I'm a Helper
BILINGUAL DANGER...
So, I'm being a good hubby and bringing a nice Starbucks home for the Mikster...
She orders a Hot Grande Americana, so I'm thinking I'll be Starbucks cool and deliver it by saying, "Here's a hot Grande Americana for my hot Grande Americana..."
Coffee was still warm when I awakened.
PUPS SAY THE DARNEST THINGS...
Ken-Dogger: Bello, what are you doing?
Bello: I’m practicing…
KD: And just what are you practicing?
B: Politicking…”Un-American; Stupid; Sleepy; Creepy.”
KD: That’s not politicking, that’s name-calling.
B: Tell that to the Pols…They keep it going.
KD: Naw, tell it to the People, they allow it to happen.
