Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 14, 2019

It really got bent out of shape when he sat on it.

Just wait until he tries to get off, one foot at a time. That thing will push him up at the same time it folds up and traps him. Of course I’m not…um…speaking from practical experience or anything….

I have been reviewing some comics from “The Neighborhood.” A few observations:

1. People’s faces were bulgy and unattractive, because Susan had not yet brought her beauty techniques to the neighborhood. Perky Cat’s relaxation tapes may have played a roll as well.

2. Most people were grossly overweight, as the X factory exercise machines had not yet been purchased by the Ballard Street Health, Fitness, and Colonic Regularity Salon,

3. I had not yet introduced cardboard and plywood inserts, so the nether cheeks of all, especially men, are unattractively round;

4. Ankles and feet meet in a strange way, where the foot does not extend behind the ankle, like a normal chicken’s would. Montana Wild Woman’s Mountain Man and Rocket Scientist is investigating.

5. The fun-loving Habners were early denizens of the Neighborhood. Scooter is but a puppy.

I will try to provide illustrative proof in the next few minutes, unless ZZZzzz…

Oh, and men wore checks, but women mostly wore solid colors, before I opened my fabric store. (Men did wear polka dot undies).

It’s a start.

His spring has no rebound…….going to be a long hot summer.

That’s stretching things a bit.

It looks like revenge for all the loss of dignity suffered while trying to get back to his feet after sitting in it.

I think the lounge won, Tory.

Are we going to have a Retirement Party for Mr. A.?

What’s with the brown legs? ;o|

And his knuckles are saying, “TAKE THAT lawn chair!”

Do you suppose he had to chaise it first?

Tory was hoping he could do a flip like they do on a trampoline.. to impress Mabel.

Love the odd humor. Gonna miss this guy.

BDSM

All he has to do is raise his right hand, yell “Up Up and Away” and he will spring into action.

Finally figured out what I was doing wrong on imgur.

A little more elasticity in the lawn chair, and Tory could learn how to fly!

Give it up, Tory. Embrace your inner sub.

Well, I’m back. My computer died 10 days ago. I’m trying to catch up on all of my favorites AND get used to anew (small) keyboard. More later….

Winnnnning!
