I could have been a "third." But my father, in his infinite wisdom, decided to name me after a couple of movie actors he admired instead. I am glad that I did not know this until I was older, and had coped with my dissapointment at not being given his name by coming to the realization that Dad hated being a Junior and decided to give me a name that was all mine, even if it did result in some teasing and fights growing up.

When your own people call your daddy "relatively undistinguished," you're doing it rong.

My father, sadly -- puredog Jr. -- did not share that infinite wisdom.

Zeeker and his daddy Bozell were taking Feebs cashThey stayed up all night selling QAnon tale rehashOnce there was a blowhard who had a sister named PatFor reasons unexplained she loved daddy Bozell

Zeeker was a layabout before he coached girls basketballAnd found out the hard way nobody gives a damnHe knew that he would kill for freedom past the Capitol Cops LineSo he hopped the wall and rioted just like it was 1999

And the Feds came down, all the way to hellNever saw them when they're standingNever saw them when the hammer fell

My impression of the Bozells has been, going on sixty years now, that they don't seek power but wish to serve the powerful, to be close, and useful. What can "Zeeker's" adventure be about? He lacks the common touch so common in the rest of them.
