Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for October 08, 2024

That and the lack of coconut trees in the neighborhood

ohh dear Barry … they noticed, and deemed it unworthy of their time

Perhaps the larger life forces don’t like the feel of squished humans between their toes.

Probably right.

And Barry is kind of hard to miss…especially from .. rear.

He’s probably right

Like the Borg, we aren’t yet threatening its existence/mission.

The original comic caption… “What’s my underwear doing up in that tree?”

Waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Payback may be looming. The Larger Life Force notes that Barry is off the sidewalk and squishing a few of his own while he makes such an observation.

Barry could be right.

Good morning Balladeers!

Get an umbrella Barry and stay under it so they won’t see you.

The younger Barry wasn’t nearly as paranoid as the elder Barry.

Don’t worry, Barry, they’re looking for intelligent life… ☺

And Barry is one of the more realistic people on Ballard Street?

sounds like a scifi movie from the 50’s

See Gray Matters today.

Nah. They just don’t want to cover their pods by — YUCK! — stepping in us.

Barry is clearly not an aetheist.

Perhaps the larger life forms think we’re cute and like watching us.

Ballard Street is the last place I expected to encounter cosmic horror… but I like it.

everyone knows that barry’s crazy as a bedbug…

Everyone knows the Barrymores, but few know the Barryless. Barry is worried that Ballard Street may become Barryless.

Good evening, Ballard Dears!
