Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for February 23, 2010

And she’s having a great deal of fun with it, too.

Better than just watching TV, too.

Go Stephanie..

Hmmm, I think I want my own little life too, it sure looks like fun!

I’d take those pearls off, Steph. You’ll get smacked in the face.

She’s all hopped up again.

What happens if her feet come off the pegs…

Oh….never-mind… I’ll get bleeped for that…

She tried to buy two sticks with checkered labels for the price of one and take them home with her, but they wouldn’t let her. When she insisted, the store manager said, “BOGO go-go logo pogo to go no go, so go!”

Woo Hoo! You go, Steph! I just hope you have cathedral ceilings.

I think the other ba-a-ad dogs are going to anoint Cleo their queen.

Morelli says, if Stephanie is happy. I’m happy!

Meanwhile, back at BDA:

Is Cleo an inspiration or a bad influence? If she were like Poncho (Pooch Cafe) she would have all of those dogs totally corrupted by the end of the meeting.

Confound it, Cleo!

Cleo, consider yourself imprisoned for the rest of your life. Everyone else is free to go.

And he’s okay with that.

Cleo pretends to confess…

But of course, she’s actually bragging…

In the February 23rd, 2020 “Cleo and Company”, over on Sherpa.

 

She wants to watch those other dogs drool with envy…

After all, what dog is truly sorry?

They apologise or act contrite to please their humans…

They can go home tonight and tell their so called masters and mistresses that they went to their meeting, and feel SO much better.

 

But in private dog society, they admire the most torn up shoe, the deepest hole in the garden, the highest pee on the fence.

 

Tonight Cleo gets points with Clara and Claude… redeemable in chips and steak and bazooka ammunition…

And admiration from all the other dogs whose jealousy she inspires.

Win-win.

A couple of those boy dogs would like to be with Cleo, but they’re afraid to be with her because they think she would want to do ba-a-ad things with them and that would just be ba-a-ad and that scares them. Maybe Cleo can do a good thing and get rid of the ad at top of the page.

I don’t mind that ad on top so much because it is an ad for one of my favorite old comics….but look for gocomics to take advantage

of that space once we get used to it being there. Soon you’ll see ads for the new, wildly popular gocomics main page member:

‘Ask a Portly Cartoonist Who Married the Bosses’ Daughter’

It’s anonymous so “owners” don’t know about Cleo’s influence on her new pack.

So, is there a Baaaad Cat Anonymous. We all know who’s in charge of that meeting!

And, does Cleo sneak into that meeting disguised as mild mannered Cleo Kent?

Cleo is a leader with new and inventive ideas for the group. She will probably be teaching a class soon.

Cleo has mastered the humblebrag.

Good evening Balladeers, Plods and Miss Susan!I hear you Stephanie!
