Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 28, 2010

It looks like the sidewalk has partialy swallowed ‘Ole Buddy’.

Ya think???

looks like that first step can almost kill you.

You beat me ejcapulet… perfect !

“But enough about my heart…”

Howdy all… It’s Saturday Puzzleday!

When comics fans and puzzle people gather together,

in pursuit of the nine teeny differences between two almost identical panels of a “Cleo and Company” comic strip….

This time, the March 28th  2020 edition….

NOT for prizes, NOT for sudden riches, or even fame……

but just for the thrill of it all.

Which is far better, right? Um… right?

 

You can find the puzzle on Sherpa

Or you can, as I recommend, go straight to my side by side version:

If you get there on time, there will be two Cleos … one in each panel….

cooking up a mess of fine Italian …

OK, maybe not-so-fine-and-not-so-Italian…

“Chef Cleoardee”™ pasta and sauce… it’s almost edible! (IF she washed her paws).

And maybe you can have some!

 

You can have mine, in fact.

About 2 minutes…

Oh – and the signature isn’t one of them.

Wait till Buddy gets his skates on, then he will show you a few tricks!

I like the way Cleo puts a little body English on the addition of the Chef Boyardee,

What tipped you off?

She’s no Emeril Legasse.

I was kind of amazed that I found 8 of them. Still looking for the last one. But, what really amazed me is that Cleo has learned how to use the can opener. She will now go next door and open a can of cat food in front of the evil cat and then dump the food down the drain at the side of the road.

OK, folks…

Not much has changed here since I left….

But it’s time for sleep… and then some.

 

Before I go… the semi-anonymous animation-solution-maker PERFECTIONISTA has been doing a little cooking, as well…

She Can bi found in her workshop, every Friday….

stel kindly stirring up a weekly animation solution for me to post before I go to bed.

 

So when you’ve done your darnedest… and I mean that! …

and you need to make sure you’re right…

go to

I don’t have cable, or even TV…. so I just watch the solution till I’m hypnotised.

One more thing to help while away the time in captivity.

 

That reminds me.. I watched a video tonight about staying safe when shopping, made by a doctor.

He said it applies to whatever you buy or have delivered, including groceries, restaurant food, or parcels.

OMG.

 

He did a whole surgical style prep… disinfected a sanitary area on a table…

put grocery bags on the “dirty” side… took each thing out and cleaned it before placing it on the “clean” side…

wiped every can with disinfectant… even took things out of their outer boxes, which he tossed…

EG, he put the pizza in the freezer, and the cereal in the pantry, in just their inner wrappers, no labels!.

Threw the produce in the sink with warm water and detergent, rubbed EACH apple, etc, for 20 seconds… before putting in the drainer…

though he did just wash the outer bag of the broccoli cos it will be cooked.

 

One interesting thing he said:

NO ONE over 65 should go shopping!

“We need to take care of OUR ‘elderly’ and bring them groceries.”

So… now I’m trying to figure out just whose “elderly” I am…

cos so far… no one is bringing me anything.

Looks like he finished three 360’s.

Seven.

GOOD MORNING BALLARDEERS

I’m sure there’s a payback in store for the smart butt that didn’t “salt” the walkway.

turn signal…. different subject

There’s a WHO pictorial chart going around by a UK doctor. It’s great. Pictures and everything. So easy to read, even politicians could do it. (Sorry. Had to.) There’s only one problem…

Of the 8 symptoms listed… I’ve had 6 of them for at least 3 years. What the ever lovin’ !@#$? sigh

I finally got them all for once. Kept coming back between doing other things and the last one just revealed itself to me.

I got all 9! WooHoo! And under 3 minutes, too! Thanks for making it easy for us, NH!

But, I had to call in the Fashion Police. What was Clara thinking with those socks! Ick, ick, ick!!!

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times……the best of times being I got them all for the first time in weeks! We all know about the worst of times.

Pasta dishes are so easy to make…..almost as easy as opening a can and blorking it into a pot. Not a fan of the can!

Got all nine, yea!

Eight.

NINE!

I am amazed, I got all 9, first time for ages!!!

It must have been extra easy this week, it looks like everyone got all 9!!!
