Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for January 12, 2010

Gosh, I wonder why…?

I’ll be the first to say he needs to think outside the box.

I dunno, Bargrove, I think the box supplies a bit of protection from the smaller rocks.

That Ballard box is a cartoon carton.

Sometimes, just sometimes, I feel that way too.

He’s going to need transcendental medication.

Why is that tiny man inside my juice box?

to see today’s Cleo and Company go here:

I love those tippy-toes!

Dale was planning to go sliding down that nice grassy hill, but he’s a klutz and ended up rolling inside the box instead. He keeps asking, “Why, oh why do these things keep happening to me, and not to other people?”

Just to rub it in, Clara stocked the fridge with all kinds of cakes and cookies, too.

Dale dressed up in a Costco box of Wheaties, thinking it would give him Olympic strength! But he forgot to cut eyeholes.

Fitting hoots for the clowns sent in.

Welcome, all!

You’ve found the comments forum for

the Jan 12th  2020 “CLEO and COMPANY”

Temporarily not on Sherpa, so Nighthawks has posted a link to it, above.

And a historical Cleo it is, at that!

For those of you who haven’t been along for the whole ride….

IIRC… this is the first animated “Cleo and Company” to be shown on Sherpa!

Nighthawks’ first collaboration with StelBel, back in 2014….. and look where it has gone from there.

From color changing refrigerator lights to Star Basset, and that fantastic New Year’s animated clock.

Love the reflections on their faces… and Cleo’s first real-time moving eyeballs.

She was still walking on all fours, and “speaking” in untranslated "wuf"s and "ruf"s… but I think we know what she’s saying.

Soon, she’d be handing out sarcasm, and deftly handling tanks and bazookas…

but here… well, okay… she already manages a bit of sarcasm, I’d say.

Now all we need is Sound-O-Vision… or… er…. Sound-O-Hearing?… um…

Aw heck… I can hear those honks and ah-oooh-gas anyway… can’t you?

Claude should have grabbed some stuff and ate it on the way back to bed. I looked at Sherpa. A whole 4 comics got updated today. Still no word on why Cleo got deleted from Sherpa or if anything will be done to Sherpa? It’s been 12 days and still nothing has changed.

That’s cold, Clara. And not just because it’s the refrigerator.

The only “reflecting” Dale is doing is when he bounces off hard objects.

Dale just prior to this picture:

“Hold my beer and watch this…”

All Clara is doing is saving the plan-overs for tomorrow’s dinner.

But nooooooooo. It was so good, the two Musketeers decided to help themselves to it all right now.

Carrots for dinner tomorrow night.

Hey Rita! I am watching Psycho.
