Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 18, 2014

Night all…

Outstanding, Troy. I think you’ve got a point there.

Troy maintains a delicate balance…(with or without lessons.)

Sorry I missed yesterday’s forum…but hey…. it’s still Monday night in Western Ballard County….

Corned yak and Cauliflower…a late night special…(we ran out of cabbage)or corned yak sandwich with coleslaw…(if you must have some cabbage)$1.96

Whatever green beer is left on tap…..96¢ a pint.(sorry, Monkey!)

And I promise not to sing!

@ StelI read your answer to my yesterday, I lnow what you mean, but none of the images come up that way, because of a glitch that was supposed to be fixed! Grrr. Geek squad is coming here Wed. morning and I will show him just exactly what I mean. I don’t get images I only get web sites. Thank you for replying, I love my friends here!

Susan, has anybody ever made wine or something like that out of tomatoes?

Oh… I shouldn’t have gone for a walk…. sorry….

Superfrog….I recommend a nice Turdmunkestani wine…even though I live in California, I believe in the high mountains there, they raise the perfect grapes to go with yak…

Have you tried our Black Yak Pinot Noir?

Varnes…..Surprise!

pcolli….. Not only disgustingly horrrid, but not a great choice for St. Patrick’s day!

pcolli…. my friend in Dublin says it’s catching on a bit…. though not for the very devout…but there’s a parade, if not drunken revelry.

I’d say it was for the tourists…. but in February?

Anyway…. I was just joking about the symbolism on the label, of course.A leek on a field of Orange being so Irish.

Funny, though, how Americans clamor to claim Irish blood, but most of the English I know rush to claim nary a drop..

Meanwhile…half asleep… time to head home….

Bev…. would you like these for breakfast? I saved them for you.

Stel…. didn’t get a chance to catch up till late…that was some spectacular St. Paddy’s Day stuff you did!

Essex…. the new headgear becomes you…. just stay calm and they’ll let you out Thursday…I’m sure they will…there there….

Superfrog…. I’ll have a wee glass o’ that before bed!

Goodnight, Fenton, my friend….I hear the Monkey snoring, so he made it home…. (whispering) g’night, Monkey….

and all….

Good morning BS’rs everywhere. Looks like a great day coming. Enjoy. :)

The dog is not impressed.When Troy can bend over and lick himself while balancing on the end of the couch THEN the dog will be impressed.

@Twinkly lights

from yesterday…

Those darn GIF devils…they’re always makin’ trouble, aren’t they? I hope it’s not the more powerful computer devil causing your problems, though…

I learned a lesson long ago that when you’re compiling a list or pictures: you will ALWAYS forget/not include something or someone. ALWAYS. When I did the picture of the Tiki last summer, or the more recent picture gallery of the Cartoon Dogs Hall of Fame , I had to re-do them 5-7 times after receiving suggestions from so many people that I forgot this one or that one… LOL I had to call a halt to it when it got to the point where there simply was no more room!

I’m glad you enjoyed yesterday’s stuff that I did. I sure enjoyed doing them! Thanks!

@Number Six

from yesterday:

“If ‘our’ work takes off, you will get paid!”+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Here’s hoping…….!

ZZZZzzzzzz…. (snik*)…… hmmmpphhh….zzz… pffft~….. ZzzZZZZZ….

@Bev

from yesterday and today:

“Lep’s House………. Darling photo!”“Megan’s metamorphosis………. Priceless! "and @Susan“Stel…. didn’t get a chance to catch up till late…that was some spectacular St. Paddy’s Day stuff you did!”++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I sure hope there’s no danger in either one of you running out of these delightful adjectives…… keep ‘em coming! LOL

Thanks, both of you!

(BTW, Bev: Are you Irish??? Lots of great Irish-themed posts yesterday!)

(Susan: the Black Yak Pinot Noir for some reason just doesn’t tempt me, although it IS a unique label design…very nicely done! The tomato wine does sound intriguing, however…)

I…ouch…can bal..ouch…balance on one..oww! foot!

Troy’s made great strides, seeing as how he was counterbalanced before.

@Bev, I can barely balance holding the opposite leg when standing flat (much less ever “en Pointe”.

@Stel – LOVE that rework of today’s toon (even tieing the laces at the ankle) and moving her hands to her eyes, giving him hairy legs.

I had quite a few drinks of gin in my celebrations yesterday, and started the day experimenting with a dry almond and flax mix for pancakes that I plan to take camping (worked great for little ones, tasted rather like cookies, delish with pineapple and yogurt). Camping I figure we can eat pancakes w bananas and hot cocoa – very easy!

Sam is rolling in his grave.

TOO many Bench presses.Needs to cut back on the 800 poundage. Work a bit more on lower body.Have you checked out the new guy Scurvyville by Mark Shank. He is quite the talent in this and on professional level. Think Ballard Street with more edge.Some may like it…some may not….its funny on in a very edgy human way.

Troy were nun to bright…

Not to worry Ess. Troy is in his third week of base jumping and this time he remembered to wear his wing suit…

Got to go. It’s time for bed and I’ve not yet packaged all the pasta sauce I made today. And “Face-Off” is on TV (recording).

He should take flying lessens from this guy.

Night all…

Handy skill when Troy returns home from the Tiki late…

Punny Monday!!!
