Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 02, 2012

@beviekDave just saw your comment about the Wine Trail and the Humvee.

Kevin has it right, and Muriel is delighted!

Or they could go inside and do things. (heh heh heh)

I’m all for doing things!Inside the house, outside the house….Right after my nap, OK?

Oh…. Bev….I left early Wednesday, and didn’t get time to say…

Yes, I already have all the soaps…. in fact we have already given some away at campaign events.

I think there are 377 blue ones left and 217 white…. well, that’s approximate of course.

There were 243 gift bags last Friday, but now there are 242…cos I cut one up…. looking for the people inside…

When I told Lem we’d like to give out 400, he said he’d print another 200 labels so we could tie them onto clear cello bags…I’ll pick them up Friday.

The cotton candy machine might be “portable” for two guys with a truck…but there’s also a lot of stuff that goes with it…bags of sugar, bottles of flavorings and colors…

Not something I cart around…but I can bring tomatoes!

I can tell from the comments that I’m out of the loop with this comic.

Go out in life and do things? They’re already in the back yard….What more do they want? And isn’t all we are looking for found in our own back yards, after all?

As the golden windows of true opportunity open and shine, Collin declares for all the world to hear…..do everything you can, with what you’ve got, from where you are and the universe will be yours.

Muriel?

There was a lot of Timber Shivering and the like coming from the galleon this evening. I hope all is well?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>All goes well. What you were hearing was the griping and grousing of the cleaning crew.At the beginning of every month, I have my ship steam-cleaned stem to stern – this includes the crew ! There’s always a few, whose personal hygiene leaves a lot to be desired, so the steam cleaning not only benefits them, but they rest of us as well. But sometimes chasing them down and hog-tying them for cleaning can be a real pain-in-the-a$$ for the cleaners ( and for the Filthy Five, as well )!

Beware! I went out and did things. Fun things! Alas, I still haven’t paid off the car I destroyed. Course it wasn’t my fault. Stupid place to put a corn field anyway.

Is this what is referred to as “Star Struck”?

LSD?

It’s more fun to go out into the world and undo things. Or is that “in underthings”? Still more fun.♫ Who do you need, who do you love♫ When you come undone?

“Muriel in her younger daze…. wit cotton candy, when she used to DO things”

Good idea. That is one of the keys to a long happy life.

But it doesn’t hurt ME. Just filter out what you don’t like and enjoy the banter. It’s just a daily Graphic Novel,

@Dr.Toon, IMudd, Redkaycei Repoc, and Molly McGee

Although we all had slightly different “slants” in our responses to Shooflypie , I’d like to say, “Well said.” to you all. Wouldn’t it be nice if Shooflypie and J.Short did complete turnarounds and decided to join us?

Well, I certainly was quite surprised at the link you posted on W of ID yesterday. What a coincidence! When I saw the graphic, it reminded me of Cyril, so I chose it… on the same day that you posted that rainy number! What are the chances???BTW, that is indeed a classic, if not the quintessential dance number! I never tire of watching it.

Whimsical Wednesday had quite an unusually strong effect on Muriel and Dave/Stan/Kevin(Bacon?)/Collin (does anybody really know who this guy is?) this week.

@Number Six

Here’s another classic…and it reveals how it was done:

@beviek

No, Bev, it’s all real and you will be signing for your house tomorrow. Then, we’ll finish up the gift bags and get them distributed. Scooter and the boys are all set to go. They can do the 3200 miles of Ballard St. and all the Extensions in just a few hours. It’s all arranged. I know what you need! How about a review of the new Margarita recipes? I think we need to refresh our memories about (ahem) how they’re…put together? Don’t you think?

( good night! )

I played Ship’s Mast once. Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Dog biscuits anyone?

“Well – maybe next time”, Muriel dreamily replies.

Good morning Balladeers, (((((Plods))))) and Miss Susan.
