Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for November 03, 2016

The people in Chicago will have to back to saying “when hell freezes over” ,because " when the Cubs win the Pennant" no longer applies!!!! YAY!

Somehow this doesn’t look like it was Scooter’s idea.

When Scooter brings out Teddy, he is looking for trouble. The neighborhood suddenly gets very quiet.

All the dogs find an excuse to get under the nearest bed!

Teddy always rides bearback.

Scooter is an amazing doggie…..

 

We’ve seen him using cap pistols, playing baseball…

tying his own shoes and even making an omelet….

(though that one admittedly wasn’t going too well.)

 

If any dog is going to patrol the perimeter…..

I’d trust Scooter the most.

 

Well, except for our trained Sheriff’s Department dogs….

the more anthropomorphic, talking ones,

like Batpug and Inspector Canine.

♫♪Whoopie ti yi yo get along little doggie It’s your misfortune and none of my own.

There’s a new Sheriff in town.

Best Halloween costume ever!

“Oh I’ve got spurs

that jingle, jangle, jingle”

Monkey! Just like Happy says… NEVER!!

 

Don’t worry…

He’s just a TOY sheriff…

You’re the real thing.

 

Now put down that banana and wipe your chin.

Drowning your sorrows in bananas won’t help.

 

Everything is fine….

And we need those for the daiquiris.

Unlike Roy Rogers and Trigger, it’s the rider that’s stuffed, not the steed.

BTW did anyone do the NYTimes crossword yesterday? It was a doozy and it took me an hour and a half, but I did it!

sorry, I just had to brag!
