Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 29, 2008

If it ain’t one thing, it’s another.

Judging by her looks, she won’t find much better. I think she should keep him.

I agree with Paula. If Meredith wants a guy with no idiosyncrasies, she had best move a few counties away. I think Walter’s hat shows his creativity and excellent design sense.

Yes Merry Men, it is hard to keep gruntled in the Sure Would Forest winter.

Hi everybody….

We’re here to talk about

the August 29th  2018 “CLEO and COMPANY”

We all read it on Sherpa, of course…

And it looks like the Merry Men are restless!

Robin had better try harder not to give the impression of elitism.

Egalitarian as he is at heart, it’s rather easy for him to slip into the role of a castle-dwelling noble, without realising it.

After all…. he has fine manners and a streak of chivalry (though not enough for Maid Marian’s taste.)

Some even say he was to the manor born, himself…. Robin of Barksley, or the Earl of Huntingdog….

though Robin himself denies it.

Anyway… time to share that roast beef with his men…. before a mutiny arises!

Anyhow… it looks like we won’t be going Meredeth and Walter’s house today….

I thought we’d be headed there to have some cookies and post our comments.

This is an unexpected development.

Well…. sort of.

Trudy has seemed restless for a while.

I thought so because she was taking so many classes at the Ballard and Pine St Senior Center and Large Animal Veterinarian Hospital…

Everything from macrame plant hangers to amateur surgical assisting.

She even told me she was disappointed because they mostly treated cows, not tigers.

Meanwhile, I’m a bit surprised by Paula’s comment, and even by Dennis’ agreement.

I’d hoped we were past the days…. especially among women…

of judging a woman’s suitability as a friend, lover, or life partner, by her physical attractiveness.

As Meredeth says… it isn’t just the hat.

I don’t want to take sides till I know wat else has transpired.

Note to Montana Lady…

Sorry I didn’t get back to say it yesterday:

Congratulations!

So… you met in kindergarten?

Of course, it never occurs to them that Robin might be in trouble.

He has so many jobs he doesn’t know which hat to wear so he wears them all to be on the safe side.

We’re dogs… we’re dogs in tights

Some of them are getting too tight lately.

My favorite part was ⚝ ☠ ☮ ⚖ ⚾

(sorry – couldn’t find the right html codes for star, @, #, tornado or lightning bolt – I improvised – so sue me)

Mmmm, turnip root soup!!! I fear for Robin’s safety when he returns to the fold!!! if he returns before Spring!!!

Now if these same Merry Men lived in said castle, they would be the servants in charge of lighting all the fires in the fireplaces. Then they’d have to keep them burning, and then they’d have to clean them all out in the morning and start all over again. You think these Merry Men are disgruntled now?

Ahhhh! Nothing like a night chatting around the camp fire. I hope they start singing soon.

The merry men are not merry. Neither am I. It’s been 20 months since we were told that Sherpa would be moving to the main page. Still nothing. It can’t bee that hard to move it. Maybe they should get a 6 year old child to tell them what to do.

The natives are restless in the forest tonight. Being merry is such hard work! Methinks they need a night on (& in) the town, and bit of the hair of the dog if you get my drift.
