Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for April 09, 2008

I got three words for Marcus.

Two Buck Chuck.

Hi everybody! Oh…. hi Marcus… hi Misty….

Didn’t expect to see you guys shopping at this hour!

Me? I’m just here to pick up a little refreshment for our comments forum tonight… it’s at Deb and Dieter Hanson’s.

We’ll be commenting on ….

Would either or both of you like to come?

True, Misty… maybe I should have gone to Trader Joe’s…

But the Bargain Bin here at the Ballard Bonanza Booze and Banana Warehouse can yield such treasures….

sometimes for close to the same price.

Look…. here’s a 2009 Ballard Valley “Chard” for only $1.17…

What? You’re kidding!

I never heard of actual Swiss chard wine. No grapes at all?

Um…. OK….

Well… I think I’ll… er…. buy my bananas, and then go check out Trader Joe’s.

See you all at the Hanson’s….

Using Clara’s program, I am sure that I should be long gone. And it’s not from drinking two buck yuck. If I am going to kill myself, at least I will enjoy the journey.

Don’t forget to put the alarm on!!!

Death by survey.

I’ve learned to not inquire about symptoms of illness on the ’net.

They can convince you that a hangnail has fatal consequences.

Cleo doesn’t even need a word balloon. Her eyes say it all.
