Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for December 24, 2024

Ted gets ever closer to 42

let someone fall there and we’ll call it an achievement

Soon he’ll run out of space to dig.

Good night, Ballard Dears!

He’s five over par.

This guy just out done himself from last week, only 21 holes….

That’s a hole lot.

Unfortunately it’s on old Mrs. Hoopnagles lawn. Here she comes now with her .22, Let’s watch ( from a safe distance. Old Mrs Hoolnagle is blind as a bat)

Ted must’ve been a Marine. He digs more holes before 9 a.m. than most people dig all day.

Ted must have been a dog in a past life.

That’s not what you’re supposed to do even if you live just off of the green. The golf course is a bit displeased with him.

Ted is careful to never dig any hole so deep that he can’t get out of it.

Wholey moley!

His name should be Doug.

TODAY’S LIMERICK.

There is a young fellow called Ted. Who isn’t quite right in the head. His only main goal, Is to dig loads of holes, Before taking his shovel to bed.

But he’s only put number signs on holes 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, and now 23. He’s indicating that this is some prime real estate.

Ted seems very pleased with himself.

It looks like Ted is going to dig 4 more before sunset.

I was using my metal detector in the neighborhood and it seems people get upset when you dig a hole in their yard!

Skidoo!

Ted and Scooter are having a fun contest to see who can dig the most holes.

Good morning Balladeers!

Ted does not celebrate any Holidays….he is instead hoping to strike oil???

will he be leaving a dna sample in that hole?

Ted is part dog apparently

Ted better not be livin’ in an HOA!

This is Ted’s version of 23 and Me.

It’s nice to pursue a hobby with forensic discipline.

Some think that Ted’s first hole was in his head.

God Jul to all you Balladeers.

Give it a rest, Ted. Give it a rest. :)

♪ now he knows how many holes it takes to fill the albert hall…

Keep it up, Ted! Pretty soon, you’ll have two golf courses.

And a lot of happy gophers! Ooooops! :)

Why did Ted dig the 23rd hole? The other 22 weren’t deep enough.
