Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for July 31, 2024

Alice, don’t you worry if you left something on the stove?

I hope you remember some good times!

AND you’re always meeting new people.

Good morning Balladeers!

Those are some epic fur balls that her cat Muffins are tossing her way to remind Alice to feed her, however!

“Go ask Alice, I don’t think she’ll know…”

If ignorance is bliss why aren’t more people happy, like Alice. (Paraphrased Thomas Jefferson quote)

Alice has a good point.

She’s been diagnosed with Aliceheimer’s.

She’s in a Word-Contest with Kamala?

It is the grass sprinkler gone awry……not to worry!

We could all do with a bit of that.

Is that a memory leak?

I don’t understand what’s happening. There a black pool of something on the floor that’s spreading and what are those white streaks. Are the splats on the end or the beginning ? Anyone ?

Anyone who has been around Alzheimers patients knows that they tend to be agitated because they can’t remember, and it makes them angry.

Leave it to a Ballarder to find the upside of dementia.

I tend to be absent-minded, but when things are zinging past me like that, it does make me worry a bit about what’s going on…

“remembering anything”? Like why someone is taking potshots at you through your window?

What on earth is zinging past Alice? I’d worry about that.

Good night, Ballard Dears!

If I lived on Ballard Street, I’m not sure I’d want to remember very much.
