Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for January 24, 2018

I hope that’s not a cow costume.

It looks like Troy hasn’t escaped unscathed already. We’ll hope he’s learned something from the experience (just not so much that he won’t be entertaining this time).

He paid cash for the costume at the QuickiMart stampede but he;ll be charging everything from now on.

The bulls are thinking “One of these days! One of these days!”

That fence looks pretty flimsy compared to those two big boys.

I hope Troy likes hamburger, cause h’s gonna be…oh I’d say 243 1/7 pounds in three…two….one!

Whoever told him he’d be invincible in that suit sold him a line of bull.

If he did, he just might catch up with Bandit1.

Just out of the panel is a sign.

“Please be sure you can run across the pasture in 9 seconds. The bulls can make it in 10.”

What I’m thinking would get me banned for life, so I shall refrain from commenting….( for now )

On a " no bull " note, I hope everything went well for White Heron yeaterday with his nuclear tests. We’re all waiting to hear from you.

Haaaaa! The last stand of Troy.

I see Troy likes to live dangerously. White Heron, I hope your tests went well.

MY QUEUE IS LOADING!

WOO HOO!

Do I have to? I guess it would beat work.

From the other side of the fence, of course…

Troy should stick to Wall Street.

Old saying: “You (mess) with the bull, you get the horn”.

The bulls ‘are not amused’.

Methinks Troy is full of bulloney—or soon will be!

I thought it was a wooden horse from Troy… not a cloth bull. But he has his pant legs up and he’s ready to do the pasture dance trying not to trip into any bull pu-du.

G’day to White Heron and Mr. MUDD!

Didn’t I say something about taunting the bull a couple of days ago? Course, that wasn’t Troy. Still, I must be ahead of my time.

Troy was impressed by the costumes at BoviCon before he realized, painfully, that someone had misinformed him.

It is 3:00 am EST on the 25th, and still no new comics. Trouble in Tahiti?

3:44 am EST and nothing.

4:38 am and bupkes. Got my e-mail – with new comics – at 3:32 am. Clicking any one takes me to the GC site with a message that there is no XYZ comic for that date, then yesterday’s appears. Oy.

Same here, Liverlips…. only on West Coast time.

Right now 2:25 am PST… ie 5:25 EST…..

still nothing.

The new Sherpa strips posted at 10pm PST (1am EST), but not the GoComics ones.

Like you, I can read my e-mail strips but not get to them online, so no forums.

How can there be no Ballard St for Jan 25th when I just read it???

A DNS error, I’m sure….

The strips are posted on a server somewhere but the URL “pointers” are wrong so our browsers can’t get there till somebody fixes it.

7:48 am EST. Still nada.
