Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for June 04, 2024

do you need some water with that face-plant Mr Monty?

In high school gym class, Monty excelled at tumbling.

*Professional stuntman on closed course. Do not attempt without expert supervision.

Yet people think Simone Biles is the one with entertaining moves.

Looks like Monty knocked a lot off the trail at the same time.

Not to mention skin. Lots. Of. Skin.

To be forever referred to as the Monty descent

ooooohhhh—-that’s gotta hurt!!!!!

It was typical of Gladys to give him a little nudge with her hiking stick.

Monty takes the adage spring forward and fall behind too seriously.

Good morning Balladeers!

“Watch out for that first step, Gladys, it’s a doozy!”

Montgomery been Clift…

♪♫ “Drifting along with the tumblin’ tumbleweeds…” ♪♫

Ouch!

At that moment, Gladys came up with the the ideas of zip lining and the alpine slide. She has since retired in luxury. She misses Monty.

At the bottom of his descent I doubt he will be decent.

Once he hit bottom, Monty had astonishing polish — and no more angles.

The route he took is now known by hikers as The Monty Expressway.

I think I’ll take the slow route…thanks anyway!

Of course, it’s going to take him five minutes to stand up again. “Swings and roundabouts”

Good evening, Ballard Dears.

Monty may need that TP once he stops tumbling.

Looks like he’s gone Full Monty again — well, so to speak.

knock yourself out, monty!

Is anyone else hearing the Goofy yell with this one?
