SOME THINGS YOU HAVE TO GROW THROUGH
Ken-Dogger: Aww, it’s nice to get out and walk, hey Beto…
Beto: Jury’s still out…
KD: What do you mean? It’s a glorious day…
B: The day is cool, wasn’t talkin’ ‘bout that…
KD: Well, what then?
B: Textures bro, textures…
KD: Textures?
B: Dude, this wetness, these overnight webs…other dogs’ droppings, it’s enough to…
KD: Okay, okay, okay…Booties?
B: Naw, I’m gonna tough it out, some things you just gotta grow through.
Morning Life Lovers,
Ken-Dogger: Hey Yeyo, you singing?
Yeyo: Love is all around us, and so the feeling grows…
KD: That’s odd
Y: What, love being all around?
KD: Yep, there’s so much death now, and now the kids.
Y: That’s why I’m singing about LOVE, it must be LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.
KD: If it were abuse, the Government would step in, so it can’t be abuse.
Y: It must be LOVE harming these kids then…
KD: LOVE isn’t supposed to kill, but that’s in a LOGICAL WORLD.
Morning Peeps,
Hey US Citizens, perhaps we should talk with the Brits about MAD KING GEORGE...
For the insight
Did you catch Meghan Kelley saying Fuck You to Taylor?
I'll leave ya with this one, prepping for a 0745 teetime on Green Spring Course...
COSO Classic Kink theme, Kinks style
Sunny Afternoon
(Hope you have one)
ON this date in 1979 - Abba began their first North American tour in Edmonton, Alberta...
Unknown at the time was the fact that Mr. Purple and Bun Man were the costume designers for Abba; seems the inspiration was the Boys' wardrobe in the early 70s (rayon shirts/platform shoes)...
The Boyz, perhaps metrosexual before they knew it.
Bun did the line "I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show, A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes, Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain And celluloid heroes never really die."
Yes, we never really die, we all get our prints on Hollywood Boulevard.

SEEING ALL THE STARS
ON this date in 1898 - Hannibal Williston Goodwin patented celluloid photographic film, which is used to make movies.
Bun Man and Mr. Purple, who helped Hannibal in his lab, would, yeas later, help Ray Davies pen the classic 'Celluloid Heroes'.
1/2
ON this date in 1789 - The United States Government took out its first loan.
Senators Bun Man and Mr. Purple from the Great State of Delaware counseled Congress against this as they were worried the US would become a debtor nation.
As I've said many times before "You should listen to the Boyz!"
Bun Man later said, "If you think no one cares about this, try missing a couple of payments."
ON this date in 1991 - Alice Cooper sold his new album "Hey Stoopid" in New York's Times Square for 99 cents.
Rock Marketers Bun Man and Mr. Purple had recommended the novel approach to selling as they knew they would get high volume in Times Square and they also knew that when Alice would yell 'Hey Stoopid' in Times Square, 4 million 'peeps' would turn around and pay attention to him...
BLESSINGS
Morning Peeps...Count Your Blessings
Ken-Dogger: What’s up JR?
JR: Just wondering, am I blessed?
KD: Wow, heavy stuff for a Sunday…Let’s see, you’re merciful, you’re pure of heart, and you’re a peacemaker, the big 3.
JR: I feel it but sometimes I also feel cursed.
KD: Jesus himself said, “Every tree is known by its’ own fruit.”
JR: So, I’m a cherry?
KD: No Silly, it’s what you give…
and you give mountains.
JR: I’m blessed…
What ended up as "I'm standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona...", started out as "Well I'm by some road ruin on a god-awful road in Arizonie..."😁
Morning Peeps,

S: Morning Brew
(COME ON, IT'S WHITE-COLLAR CRIME, WE DON'T DO JAIL TIME FOR THAT IN THE USA)
ON this date in 1953 - Luigi Vena sang "Ave Maria" at the wedding of U.S. Senator John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Lee Bouvier...
Bun Man and Mr. Purple sat dejected nearby.
Their selection "The ol' grey mare she ain't what she used to be..." had been seen as poor taste...
Just goes to show you even in the 50s people didn't appreciate the Classics!!!
