Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for February 08, 2013

Let me go out on limb and say, there wood be a resemblance to Kenny’s branch of the family !

They were separated at birth, it’s a long story, and you wooden want to hear it right now.

Of course, it goes against my grain to make puns…. …But when somebody needles me I just can’t leaf it alone, can I?Well, maybe I have to, by gum…. alder good ones are gone…and I’m sure you’ll get sycamore….

Of course they run away, just when I hit the board with some more fir ‘em…sniffle…I’m starting to feel un poplar.

Kenny’s tree’s brother.

X….Hmmm…. Kenny and his tree and Kenny’s tree’s brother all really need haircuts.If you see them again soon, could you tell them I’ll give them a “Buy 2 get 1 free” special?

Spruce ’em right up for spring.

When Kenny can’t sleep he doesn’t count sheep. He count tree goats.How many do you count?

Lots.

Actually, X, if they can walk in the door they use the regular salon…make sit easier to touch up their roots.

If I have to go out here, it’s my mobile division…only possible now that I can use Elvis the Hound Dog car….which itself is only possible cos Stel lent him to me.

Here I am, Red!

I am trying so hard not to say “I saw you walk in.”

Oooh … sure, thanks.

Seems like a good night for a scotch, if that’s OK.I drank too many banana daiquiris last night.

I just realised I goofed a few comments back…. I meant to say a “Buy 2 get 1 TREE special.”My fingers must have gone on automatic pilot.No wonder nobody laughed.

Sorry about your weekend, Red.Let’s drink to 4 days OFF next week!Or will it only be three?

Oh, Gajinrabbit… do you really look like Kenny?Come to my salon for a haircut!

Well, if I get a lot of trees to come in it’ll be great.I think no one else cuts their hair indoors….you need some heavy duty chairs.

Thank you Red…. Cheers!

It must be hard to change shifts like that.Cheers!

Oh… good night, Red…. I know you need to sleep!

Not that I haven’t fallen asleep at the Tiki a few times….

Bev! That bike-riding dog is featured in today’s Ripley’s!

Or did you know that?

This is BatPug’s favorite tree:

But, most of the other Ballard St. dogs cite this one and their all-time favorite:

Four out of five Ballard St. dogs agree………….. they steer clear of Kenny’s favorite tree!

And we call broccoli trees. Must be another branch of the family.

The tree“Kenny, I AM YOUR FATHER!!!!!!”Kenny,“Yayyyyyyyy!” (Clap hands, jump about)Mom," Well it was a big party at the Tiki and I was a little drunk.So why did you never call me. (ba…d)"

For all of you up North, I can only hope that the weatherman is Wrong and over-estimated the amount of snow and severity of this storm.Can’t say I miss those winters.I’m not rubbing it in, but it is a sunny 72°F here, at the moment.

For Ling and Red

Kenny’s favorite tree? I wonder why? :-D

Love your car Susan! Will you take me for a spin in it sometime?

knothead…

Ballard Street sure has some odd trees

I found a lot of really old photos – hard to piece together just when they were taken. I only know that even seeing him back when we were together the “first time” while totally GREAT! I find him more attractive now by far.

He looks like Jimmy Durante to me, Essex.

Looks like I missed everyone, so I’ll say good night.Have a good weekend Balladeers!

I won’t ask what he’s doing to that chicken.

Small wonder. It is also Kenny’s dog’s favorite tree, if you know what I mean.

Cleo certainly knows how to steal a show…
