Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for February 07, 2009

“Get along little doggie”

I’ll bet he was watching reruns of Rawhide before bed time again.

Looks like he’s trying to herd cats.

Soldier, sailor, tinker, basset

Russell can’t sleep, knowing there are strays out there.

The lamp and the paintings are pretty wild! Mid-century Ballardian! Who’s running Ballard Lighting and Appliance Hauling, anyway? Is it you, Grog? Or Roaming 26-37?

Psst! Nobody mention the p…….. ruffles and p……. lipstick. Nighthawks is in a delicate state.

Well done, Stel! Love the glittery cheeks, not to mention the p……. accents.

Elisha Currbert – clearly a star among the stars.

Beautiful work. Makes me want to rush out and see the movie.

If I were Russel, I’d resent being told to go to bed at his age.

Hi everybody…. I’m here!

And we’re posting our comments on

the Feb 7th  2019 “CLEO and COMPANY”

A pretty basset fairy (!) poster by StelBel, on Sherpa

Ooooh, Stel!

Elisha Currbert, eh?

I’m unfamiliar with her… but what a delicate little thing she is, for a basset hound…

And so sparkly!

And she looks good in…you know…purp….um…. lavenderish.

Oh… I do remember when you showed us this poster before… and I looked and looked for a human version, to no avail.

Then I found one done as an art project….

Apparently an art student saw the basset movie,

and decided to create a poster just to show what it might have looked like with a human star…

She’s okay…. but she’s just no basset.

BTW…. about last night…. I  didn’t disappear, on the off-chance anybody wondered…. but apparently the comment I made did.

Sigh… the wonders of the internet… it’s possible I just typed it up and never actually submitted it…

or maybe I did, but it was before I noticed I was offline.

At some point I went nuts for half an hour trying to figure out what was wrong with my connection….

till I figured out I’d accidentally unplugged my modem, by kicking out the plug… (hangs head).

I usually check my comments before I close the page, though… so it’s strange.

Didn’t find out till the wee hours when I came back to check for replies… ohhhh….

Don’t worry, Russell…. we strays are a-headin’ on in.

Ohhhh. I just love a good sparklie, lavenderish, fairy tale! Stel got the “come hither” look just right. Can’t wait until we all gather around the Tiki Room for the premier.

Hey, Everybody, check out this cool time lapse of the Earth and the Moon from space!

Ooooh La La! Well done, Stel!
