Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for January 27, 2024

Perhaps Bob should have stayed cooped up.

He thought about waving a sign about the chicken thigh specials at Ballard’s Chicks and Santa Nick’s, but he felt guilty somehow.

Sparky there can give you a definitive answer, but you’ll be running at the time.

Why will Bob go back inside?

Because he’s a chicken.

It teaches him balance to stand on those legs.

Why did the chicken cross the threshold?

He could cross the road maybe and find out why he did it.

Irony is thick on the ground, Bob decides, as he retreats back inside with egg on his beakface.

Because his wife just locked him outside.

Bob suddenly realizes it’s next weekend that’s Foghorn Leghorn Appreciation Day at the Ballard Street Looney Tunes Bin and Egg-Art Club.

Avoid California, they’re having an outbreak of avian flu

Anonymity?

Well, if he was going to a Hallowe’en party it might be a suitable suit.

Nice shoes for a chicken. Must be painful tho’

That happens, go back inside Bob and write all those good ideas down so you can remind yourself when you go back outside.

Then Bob remembered he stands out front of the Chicken Filet fast food restaurant….

So now he’s a rue-ster

oh this is fowl humor indeed

Maintain focus Bob !!

At least Bob wasn’t dressed as a deer. During hunting season, he might have been shot.

But it seemed that George and Ginger were having so much fun.

Good morning Balladeers and Tigressy!

Maybe he should have gone with the hawk …

With the cost of eggs these days, it would pay for itself in no time.

Bob just doesn’t have what it takes to be a chicken.

Bob thought he might head to Burger King to persuade them to let him do a reboot of The Subservient Chicken.

Bob suddenly remembers that his neighbor, Mr. Clawson, believes he is a Chicken Hawk.

bob looks like he’s feelin’ a bit beaked…

Free admission to the loony bin.

Well, for one, he’s bound to be the only chicken on the block. Considering he should be a rooster…
