Right there before you go in the front door, keeping the unpleasantness out. But somebody has to set this up for you, right? Fill the tub, light the candles and the incense, pick up your clothes when you are done. Where did you find such a helpmate? Not like anyone I have met on Ballard Street.
That’s a nice setup Russell’s got. Even got the little gong, and the rubber duckie for company. The only question in my mind is: Why is he on my front porch?!!
After a hard day at work.. you deserve this Russell… don’t be minding the neighbors complaints.. in fact you could be a trend setter on Ballard street.
Some cultures have a symbolic cleansing to do this, particularly on the first day of the new year. Smart ghost hunters do the same to keep bad things from following them into their homes. I imagine that’s a sage smudger on Russell’s front porch for just such a cleansing. Can you imagine what the late residents of Ballard Street would do in your home? I shudder at the thought.

His neighbors are taking up a collection for a privacy fence.

It’s that brief moment between the steps and the tub that’s the most disturbing.

I hope the Sheriff hurries up, Mrs. Paxsnoggle fainted out on the sidewalk. She was on her way to The Ladies Guild meeting over to Church.

Butt cleansing must be the ‘in’ thing to do.

I’ve had to do that on the back porch twice. Once for grease and oil soaked clothes and once for asbestos.

I told the Monkey I didn’t want to be Acting Sheriff.
He promised he’d be back as soon as he could.
And now it’s waaaay past my bedtime, and I have to round up Batpug, and some deputies…
And do what? Arrest Russell? Take him to jail?
I like to think we’re more tolerant than that, in Ballard County.
Of course, he shouldn’t be on Liverlips’ property.
That’s it… trespassing? I hate arresting people just for nudity.
Mrs. Paxnoggle shouldn’t have been staring.
Oh, Monkey… YOU would know what to do.
Come HOME!!
Farside, Dennis… I know the one you mean, Farside…Couldn’t find it just now.
Doesn’t matter, really, cos this is Russell’s wife, Calpurnia.

And after his cleanse, Russell intends to go for a bit of a jog, and… Hey! Where’s everybody going?

Ablutions a man or a woman make should be left strictly between them and their gods!
