Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for December 13, 2021

Putting it on his hat would be much safer.

Roger is going to have a hard time getting to work today, not that he will be missed at the Ballard St. branch of the Last National Bank and Feed Co.

Roger is only holding his leg out until the end of the weather report.

Walkmans don’t have radios in them.

He looks like he is channeling Monty Python.

I hope he realizes a Walkman doesn’t need an antenna.

It seems to be working, however, getting to work is not working at the moment.

The signal comes and goes

Where is Gloria when you need her? Come in Tokyo!

Roger has a lot better balance than I do.

“Back freeze up again, Roger?”

Roger has developed a suburb sense of balance but is really hoping that the morning prayer is a short one this morning.

On your hat, Roger, believe me, that’s the only place that works in actual practice. I learned this when using a handheld FM transmitter.

Played the tapes very well, the radio it sucked most of the time.

and thus began the Ministry of Silly Walks…

Roger only walks during commercial breaks.

Doesn’t Roger realize that his hat is ideally suited to be a parabolic dish antenna?

It’s not grounded properly. Attach it to a foil hat for better reception.

He won’t get far this way.
