NEEDING MORE HEADS IN THE GAME
Morning Citizen Leaders,
Ken-Dogger: What up Faust?
Faust: Where we headed today?
KD: Well, I’m working, not sure what’s on your agenda.
F: It’s not about my agenda, it seems to only be about the masses now.
KD: Masses?
F: Yes, those who keep wagging tails, like that is what we need to catch.
KD: You don’t want to catch some tail?
F: Nope, I’m looking to catch heads…We need more HEADS in the game, not wagging tails.
SHIRLEY AND I LOVE YOU WONDERFUL GUYS/GALS

Morning Peeps,
Alright, alright, ALRIGHT...
Shucks y'all, I reckon it's #caturday
BUT...and this is a BIG BUTT
We can still throw some shade on baby Madken...
Who luvs ya?
Turning back
She just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man
He makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on
She sings the songs
The words she knows
The tune she hums
But oh, how it feels so real
Lying here, with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
THANKS ELTON AND BERNIE
ON this date in 1950 - U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy charged that the State Department was riddled with Communists.
This was the beginning of "McCarthyism."
Bun Man and Mr. Purple, both working in low level State Dept. jobs at the time, were charged due to having pen pals from Russia.
Seems figuring out how similar regular citizens from each country were was against what Joey thought America should be about.
Thank God, McCarthy was found out to be the ASS that he was.
Bun sang "It was 50 years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play..."
Ringo liked it, the Beatles eventually stole it; the Boyz?
Well, you can still find 'em on a street corner talkin'...
(Did ya like the way I threw in that Savoy Brown reference also?)

ON this date in 1964 - The Beatles made the first of three record-breaking appearances on "The Ed Sullivan Show."
73 million people watched the show.
It was their American TV debut.
Ringo left during the day and toured NYC.
There he found two dudes standing on a street corner, Bun Man and Mr. Purple were strummin' their geetars and...

Hey, Mr. P, what do you think the deciding factor was?"
Mr. Purple replied "Dude, those Hamline players couldn't keep up w/ the pace..."
Bun Man agreed...
After all, they were PORKERS.

ON this date in 1895 - The first college basketball game was played as Minnesota State School of Agriculture defeated the Porkers of Hamline College, 9-3.
Bun Man and Mr. Purple, both Coeds at MSSA were ecstatic, although after the game they reflected.
Bun said "Our team was good tonight on their fast breaks, they just couldn't finish well, although they did win.

Quick Question...
If Beyoncé had a boy with one of the dudes from Kings of Leon, would he be called PONCE DE LEON?
I'm exploring...
The Next time you think Economic Power of rank-and-file citizens doesn't work, remember this...
Ivanka Trump Spring Line coming to a Thrift Shop near you real soon.
GETTING MY WAGGISH ON
Morning Whimsical Ones,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Cleo, what up?
Cleo: Hey Dogger…Well, I’m going out on a whim.
KD: Don’t you mean going out on a limb?
C: What’s that?
KD: It’s when you take a risk or a daring step.
C: Nope, that’s NOT what I mean, way too much daring risk going on. I’m going for playfully quaint, waggish even.
KD: Well, aren’t you steppin’ out.
C: Today, I’m getting’ my play on.
KD: You go on with your whimsical self Cleo, whim on.

Thanks to golf, I don't read putting the same way anymore!
Thanks to sewing I don't read sewer the same way anymore!
The US GOP, via their machinations, have clarified the Border Issue.
Morning Again Peeps, you too @Mandypar
Hope all is well...
We're dealing with a bit of a cold spell here in SW Utah, terribly bad form from the weather relative to GOLF.
And here's Mike Luckovich with a POSSIBLE PROJECTION OF THE FUTURE.
Can't sleep, so I'm up...
Snow Canyon State Park, 18 minutes away from us...
