Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for April 11, 2008

Hello everybody….

Nice night for a moonlight stroll.

I’m on my way to the Tiki to set up one of the little back rooms …. I think this week the Monkey is calling it the Coconut Room…

for our comments on

the April 11th  2018 “CLEO and COMPANY”

And then come join me!

 

Oh…. Hi Ed! Hi there, Ginger… good doggy….

What brings you two outdoors this evening?

Looking for what?

Venus…. no…. sorry… I’m not much help with that.

I can usually locate Orion, if that helps…..

Oh, a planet, right…. I see…

 

What’s that? Oh my…

Yes, I get it…. very funny…. you can usually locate Uranus. Ha ha.

Good one… I bet you’ve used it a few times, haven’t you?

Ha ha ha…. well, I’ve gotta run….

expecting people soon….

 

I’m afraid I am left confused by that rectangular object on the upper right, that Ed is staring at. Can anyone clue me in? Is it Venus deMilo?

It’s very considerate of Ed to hold Ginger up so she can get a better view of the night sky.

Listen, Ed. We’re ALL trying to locate Venus before we retire.

It looks to me as though Cleo has just dumped a pile of chip crumbs on the carpet. Pretty rude behavior, I’d say.

That star within the crescent moon is intriguing. It has to be on the moon or between the moon and the earth. I wonder what it is?

Cleo is hoping Claude and Clara will locate downloadable episodes of Rin-Tin-Tin so she can watch them. She’s thinking he’s such a hunk! She really wants to chase Claude and Clara out of the room so she can binge-watch the episodes alooone.

Liverlips… yes, she did.

I know she doesn’t do a lot of “dog stuff,” but I’d say she’d better get down there and whuffle those up.

 

Most dogs can play vacuum cleaner when they want to.

Too bad they shouldn’t do it with their nostrils.

That nose looks like it could vacuum the whole house…..

Is it me, or has it grown?

 

Maybe this strip was filmed before she had a nose job, to help further her Howlywood career.

I didn’t think she would have done that…. I thought she’d gotten there solely on her natural talents and beauty…

But there are so many stories about studio demands, casting couches, and other pressures befalling a young female in her rise from puplet to dogstar.

And then they’d like to relocate to Venus when they retire.

If Claude’s so smart why hasn’t he ever heard of repeats? Or DVD’s?

Come on Cleo, show them how smart you are & get your own chips!!!

My favorite part was the red dot on the remote.

Ah, Clara is wearing her matching purplie bunny slippers again. Um…….where are their ears???

Cleo, you are being a brat. You will have to get your own chips…………..and clean up that mess since you are so smart!
