Lowell is just the excitable type… some people are simply born full of high jinks and excess energy…luckily Lowell has an understanding partner who would rather replace a lamp every now and then than a husband.
Hmmm….. why does that remind me of a recent candidate for sheriff? Monkey! I did not mean to crush your dreams…if you truly WANT to run for Sheriff you know I’ll help.I’m just not sure you’d be comfortable…not making “deals” for yak meat…sticking around Ballard St. when the goat is nagging you to go trekking…having to take a bath every single week… or having to arrest yourse… er, rustlers and other varmints… and throw…“them”… in jail.I want to see a happy monkey, that’s all.
x_Tech…. haven’t had a chance to make any “deposits” in the “comment bank” yet.So kind of you to be the guardian of that.
I can see that you took great care to post Mrs. Beviek’s words astutely.Gave me confidence to trust you with mine… though for the nonce, I’m here to post them myself.Perhaps Monday and Tuesday, though.
As for Ms. Beviek .. StelBel! Did she really tell you I couldn’t see her Ballard Street yearbooks?
Just because I once mentioned a very valuable edition…. with some pictures of…. never mind…and just because I have been known to deal in antiques and collectibles…and know some out of town buyers…Is that a reason to think I would pilfer from my (formerly) very good friend (and partner in turkey pot pies)?Hmmmph!Anyhow, Stel… I haven’t had time to get back to you on your kind investment offer….but I am more inclined than ever to discuss it.Perhaps over tea and turkey sandwiches…say 3-ish?
“You are old, Father William,” the young man said,“And your hair has become very white;And yet you incessantly stand on your head—Do you think, at your age, it is right?”
“In my youth,” Father William replied to his son,“I feared it might injure the brain;But now that I’m perfectly sure I have none,Why, I do it again and again.”
Gotta ‘pologize… Ah new Lowell lacked sum good caffeine so’s I gave him sum of mine… Guess his system wasn’t used to Mah speshul munkey blend from T-Stan… He’ll come down ‘round midnight or so…. that is, unless Number Six has sum vitamins that might counteract it’s affect…
After three days rest, fine tuning his diet and perfectly balancing his sleep cycle with midnight snacking ; it appears Lowell has peaked about four hours early. Shirley is hoping for an impressive encore performance, after all she is wearing her pearls. Actually, Shirley is quite inspired, this is the second broken lamp this week.
OOOPS…. sorry….I …hff… gasp…just literally ran in the door…thinking I’d be late…whew…. hhffOh dear….. I meant 3 California time…I guess it’s too late for you?Ballard Street is so mysterious…. I take a city bus to the salon…. when I don’t sleep there….but we’re all in different time zones…Hope we can still meet up…As far as that yearbook goes….well…. Beviek is was a dear friend…and I would never…. and you see, one problem (for Mrs. Beviek, of course, since it isn’t ours) is that the value is far the highest here on Ballard Street.So anyone wanting to sell it… say, for instance, Bev ever decides to do so….. after all, we don’t even know whether it’s there right now, so we?…would almost have to find a buyer right here in this neighborhood…In other countries, cities, even streets there would be no one trying so hard to keep those pictures from seeing the light of day….If you catch my drift….so negotiations…BEV’s negotiations…if she indeed still owns this book… and wants to sell it…would have to be quite delicate…And the seller would have to know who might be willing to payand who would keep a secret…if there were a secret…
Mr MonkeyBlues…after the …. foot massage… I gave you…. are you implying that I usually have to pay people to give me …um……. holistic therapy?I may be getting older but I still get enough offers to let me be choosy… and I’ve never had to resort to offering valuables in exchange.Hmmppphff.
(Well, we really weren’t on the same page today, were we? Now, I know: You’re California, I’m Massachusetts….Ballard St. is one long street !!!!! We’ll go by your time from now on.)So, I just got back from walking my dog, Max, who is a permanent guest at SCHAABS…
I saw the yearbooks in Bev’s office. Is it one particular one that’s of interest? I must say that my interest is piqued! I know Monkeyblues is interested, but in order to get the highest price, I would say it should be put up for bid. We’ve only got how long? And, how do we explain it to Bev ??? Do we dare even do this? Starting to get cold feet…….

I can so relate to Lowell and his surplus energy! My personal record is 3 days, 14 hours and 32 minutes……… in my new clown suit!

SusanS said, Lowell is just the excitable type…At least he’s kept to the tamer side of Warren Zevon’s Excitable Boy.
