Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for September 13, 2010

Idiot, Daryl Carlisle…

If you want a vasectomy, go to the doctor.

This will not end well.

Big bang theory

“Goodness gracious, great balls of fire”!

You want fries with that?

DARYLThe patron saint of suicide bombers.

Instant sex change

at least the wife is prepared for the blast and the screaming

The Senator from the great state of North Carolina…

Wannabe protesting Vietnamese Monk Daryl

“Chestnut’s roasting on a open fire”

and it’s not even close to Christmas..

No, his name is not Chest, it’s Daryl.

(And his other brother, Daryl)

Mrs. Carlisle’s not hot enough for him.

Carol expects this sort of thing, she has her headset on with loud music.

Daryl’s foot placement makes me think he is just playing with fire. But he might get burnt!

regarding today’s C&C: Perhaps Phil needs some forget-me-nots in that bouquet?

Daryl appears to be old enough to have learned that there is a difference between thrill seeking and stupidity.

Fair’s fair. I have in the past encouraged Cleo to bite Claude after one of his pain-filled puns. It is now Claude’s turn. Bite her, Claude!

Meanwhile, back in Cleveland:

Claude’s friend Phil O’Dendron is lacking some daisies, but Claude is missing a vase to put them in.

At least he’ll go out with a smile on his face.

If Daryl was a real thrill-seeker, he’d take the lid off the can.

Got gas?

There’s no lack of daisies somewhere.

Hullo, Cleo pals…

I finally made it.

Some of you are already commenting on

the Sept 13th  2020 “CLEO and COMPANY”, on Sherpa…

But GoComics pulled another of its little tricks on me tonight…

with pages timing out, and when they opened, it was without the strip images … and I could only see the “featured” comments.

I ended up “resting my eyes” for awhile… (cough) … and now it’s letting me in… but it’s the middle of the night.

Still… I couldn’t resist stopping by… cos that joke of Cleo’s is an old favorite.

It always makes me think of Tom Swifties, since it featured in several.

Anybody remember Tom Swifties?

Right…. you’re all too young.

I know a couple of you are too young… you’re excused.. and a few of you may be too young…. or come from places where they didn’t exist.

The rest of you… hah!

Take this!

The classic one is “I forgot the flowers, said Tom lackadaisically…”

But I prefer “How will I figure out whether she loves me or not, asked Tom lackadaisically?”

I miss Tom Swifties!

(Yeah yeah… I can hear some of you whispering "Right. She would. " )

“I guess I shouldn’t play with the chainsaw,” said Tom off-handedly.

I still think of that one when I read that someone made an off-hand remark.

“I’m sure I know quite a few more, but I can’t think of them..” said Susan, listlessly.

GRRRROOOOOAAAAN!!!

Claude should have rose to the occasion and said something, but he was thing about Lilly, the dandy lion at the zoo, and couldn’t think of what to say. I noticed that they now got rid of dragon Girl. Reply All is gone. Two cows and a chicken, Frog Applause will be taken off and who knows what else will be gone in a few months? Which one is next? Emmy Lou, Ballard Street, or the entire Sherpa site? What have they got planned for next year that none of us will like?

Here I am, a day behind on C&C again. I was cruisin’ along on yesterday’s puzzle when I got distracted by the classy C&C shirt and Cleo mug. All I could think then, was where can I get those? So I was stuck at 8 until I looked at today’s and found Claude’s shirt as number nine.

Good Morning Balladeers! QDate: 184.98300.86

Gotta love a good pun. Today’s? S’Okay.

Y’all stay in stitches. (((((Hugs!)))))

Phil isn’t just speaking lackadaisically, he’s downright half-witted!

At least I got done reading all the comics on Sherpa. I’ll still miss them when Sherpa is deleted at the end of the year.

If the rumors are true, I’d like to continue a daily Cleo and Company on another site, like TUMBLR or something.

If you guys want to follow me over there , it’s just as easy as setting up a link to sherpa and I think it will allow text, images and

gifs to post with it, like gocomics used to be.
