Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for September 05, 2012

Arthur just came back from the Tiki Bar. Too much celebrating at Sheriff MonkeyBlues swearing in after party.

Oh, me too! Got a case right here, Radish!

Ahhhhhh hahaha hic hahaha…..He be.. beh… behhhhh……. (oooops)Heeeee behhhhhdder not d d doooooAnythink on hiz cloze…..!!!!!! (hic*)

Somehow, I’ve got a funny feeling that there will be a lot more people in that condition, tonight.My guest rooms at the house are almost filled and I am sure the galleon will be filled to capacity, if they can take being rowed out to it, by my designated rower.

I’ve got a couple of things to take of, so I will talk to everyone later. Happy Trails to all.

H h h hay Ling…!!!! Mah bu… buh….buhhhhhh dee…!!!Redz’ gunna play sum moooooooz (hic*)An yooo an an an me ar gunna sing…!!!“ah lyk ssssssswimmin wif bowleggid wimmmin..”Oh…? yoooo no teh werds tooo? (hic*)**are those SOX on yer earz…????

Susan, a rush order is on it’s way.

Thank you X! You always come through!

Nice news to wake up to… and how DID I get back to the salon?

You? Linguist?

Radish, Marg — that was my first thought too…. and Bev, you’re right.

We should write thank you notes for some of these strips.

Maybe some day Brain Bleach will help me buy an actual house on Ballard St…

though I have to say that with the new yurt out back, and the comfy decor in my upstairs loft/bedroom ..I feel fine staying at the salon.

And if it rally gets too noisy downtown, I can always go out to Bev’s…. she kindly tells me.

Did the banquet happen?

Stel and I thought it would end up being tonight.What about the ball?

(and…um, Bev, we swore in the Sheriff…. we didn’t crown him!)

I think you’ve all had more than enough Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters for one week. Now take those empties down to the recycling centre, have a nice greasy breakfast and get on with the serious business of running your community. I won’t have my hair done until the alcohol’s worn off.

At least Arthur’s wearing undies.

Be glad he’s not over his underwear.

forget the bleach…anyone got any H2SO4

Second childhood. I hate to see him take a bath. I can hear it now. Turn on the water, use the soap, quit walking around trying not to get wet. Cosby said it best.

Good Morn’n all.I guess I’m about the only one feeling chipper and rearing to go, this morning – although Storm, who has the constitution of an ox ( But is WAY better looking !!!! ), will probably be up and at ’em.Those party people who decided to stay with me, rather than fight with their door keys , are beginning to surface and have a bit of breakfast before going to their homes.I somehow doubt that a lot of business will be conducted on Ballard Street until this afternoon – if even then. Brain Bleach seems to be the order of the day !

Just look at the subtle positioning though. It’s a work of Art.

MORNIN’ ALL YA’LL…!!!!!

(shhhh..!!! sorry…!)Lookin’ fur teh oner of this kool disko lite sumwun left at teh Tiki Bar lass nite…. dont no how ta turn it off… (?)runnin up mah ’lektric bill…. (Thanx BTW…!!!)

Could be worse, Arthur could be a nudist on that bed.

Ahl be aheddin’ out ta mah new orfice office taday an chek out mah new digs… ya’ll welcum ta c’mon buy… Ah CANT WATE…!!!!

For us people who have a loose grip on reality, this comments page is scary. Nonetheless, I shall continue reading it in the hope of finding out what normality is.

and Sheriff Monkeyblues

You guys provided the best music of all! The later it got, the better it got!

But, what was all that caterwaulin’?

Ohhhhhhhh……who let those two grab the mikes? And, did they come on before or after this guy, cuz’ he’s missin’!

I agree with you: Monkey’s “sea crate of family jewels” sure was impressive!

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>As an old pirate…er… professional… in assessing " family jewels" I would agree. I am a little troubled that some of them looked remarkably familiar….hmm… Not to worry, there’s always more.

Good Morning Balladeers! It was a lovey party last night. Storm I distinctly remember you saying something about the Tiki needing a Disco Ball, but since none was handy you said you knew the perfect replacement…-—————————————————————————-Oh uh…hehehe. I member now. Whew! For a while there I thought I was gonna have to light a bunch of candles to help the ships find there way home! Well, the place needed a good cleaning anyway. Oh look! I found my lucky garter and my 101 Ways To Make Men Giggle book! Party back on in…..two hours!

Barney caught on the WWOI security camera?

Good Morning Ballard Street!Um…OK….. well, morning means different things to different people, doesn’t it?But I admit, it’s 7pm on the Western edge… and on the Eastern shore some of you may have gone to bed…. sigh…

Fells like morning to ME cos I just woke up from a nap.A nap I ..um…didn’t really plan to take…. but sometimes it suddenly seems like such a good idea…especially after a day like yesterday!

Wow…. so much to reply to since I left earlier…

Gosh…I got interrupted.Apparently some people think they can get haircuts ANY old time.Actually, they can. Sigh…

Meanwhile… Stel and Bev — that’s not the yurt, that’s my loft bedroom at the salon…Usually way more cluttered, which is why you haven’t seen it, but I’d straightened it up, and thought I’d take a pic…Looks a little bare, actually…The yurt bedrooms are more spacious, depending on what you need, cos of the TARDIS interior.

I’ve been meaning to invite you over to see it now that it’s finally here and set p.

It’s tiny, just like I wanted…with 2 or 3 bedrooms inside when I need it….though you’d never know from outside, would you?Isn’t it adorable?

Honestly Arthur, I don’t know how many times we have reviewed this: Pants first. THEN shoes.

I doubt it’s legal to sic a dog on a taxman…

Ok… she can’t take a hint.

Ah… but are chicken tenders legal? @ cleoandcompany.net

Good morning Perro phans!

Hope everyone is laboring over a late cheese pizza.

Y’all have a safe holiday. (((((HuGz!)))))

Good afternoon Balladeers, (((((Plods))))) and Miss Susan.
