Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for December 28, 2017

I can hear a Kitoong! in there. Guess I read too many Don Martin cartoons as a kid — it’s permanently warped my inner soundtrack.

HELLLOOOOO!

It’s time to call in the Chamber’s dog.

I think they are both surprised, bird and birdbrain Scooter.

Scooter’s not usually so bird-brained.

He’s one of the smartest of the non anthropomorphic dogs in Ballard County.

But it’s a warmish day for this time of year, with almost a hint of Spring in the air…..

and he just passed Miss Millie-High-Maintenance on her way home from the salon, freshly pink nails aglitter.

Suddenly he was inspired to hurry home,

hoping the new issue of his favorite magazine had arrived in the mailbox.

He’s not only eager to read it….

but also to pull it out and hide it before the humans notice it.

PS to Redkaycei…

hope you saw the birthday greetings yesterday.

Normally things like this go in one ear and out the other.

Looks as though he’s on the rebound.

Is that Stupid from Dimond Lil?

I think the bird looks extremely pleased, ecstatic even.

Look! It’s the Bluebird of Clumsiness!

Is it too late to yell ……..INCOMING! Yep……too late.xD

For those blaming Scooter, he’s really just the victim. Strolling down the sidewalk is a normal activity, well as normal as Ballard street is capable of.

Ok I’m gonna make this short, first GC has lost me. I no longer have a profile and I can’t get my comics.

Second (or first for us) we came home yesterday after 5 days in Seattle to no heat in the house. Its 35 outside and 40 in here. After calling for two hours we finally got someone to come TODAY to fix it. Thank goodness for electric blankets!

The bracket that holds the basket that shoots hot air into the house broke, the basket disintegrated and no heat…….they can’t get parts til NEXT WEDNESDAY !!!!! NO HEAT people NO HEAT for a week!!!! You are flippin’ kidding me! Dale went out to buy more portable heaters.

Now I have to go into GC and find out why they don’t know who I am. NOT a good day!!!!

Well………..I had to sign up, again, create a comic page, again, buy Premium again, find an avatar pic, again. WTH!!!!!
