Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 13, 2012

Looks like me when I sit in the deadly lounge chair.

But Barry has his fingers crossed (if you look closely) that his automatic suspension will kick in, returning him to a full upright position without any whiplash (over steer) or head droop (under steer). Then he can concentrate of the task of recovering the bookmark from the floor. Little does Barry suspect the importance of that seemingly innocent slip of foolscap.

Sarah Palin must have a new book out. Her last one was great, my desk doesn’t wobble anymore.

A Face Book.

I understand that’s how Edward Casey used to glean his knowledge from books.

My bet: he’s either trying to read ‘Return of the Native’ by Thomas Hardy, or ‘The Worm Ouroboros’ by E.R. Eddison

Can you see yourself in Barry? Your concentration has slid off the arm rest, the head starts to bobble, the fan fades as the cool breeze washes the early evening away, the world becomes motionless and the next thing you hear…..”Wake up Barry, its time to go to bed”….Ain’t life good…..

Barry needs reading glasses with a more aggressive tread.

Stay like that long enough, and he’ll have to go into traction.

cost me $200 to do that. Apparently Nook’s aren’t droolproof.

This would be I in the evening, except I read in bed and the book (or Kindle) falls on my face & wakes me.

If he stays in that postion very long he WILL need to be put in Traction.

April 15 is just around the corner so Barry’s trying to bone up on arcane sections of the tax code in order to complete the 1040 long form.

That was me yesterday while trying to watch preseason baseball.

must be reading " Slippery When Wet"….

FINALLY…. Barry’s Private Time"….!caught up in his long anticipated special order placed in October….National Geographic’s “Inaugural Limited First Edition Scratch & Sniff”… titled…“Springtime Rituals of the Serengeti- Winds of Change”

…three martini lunch.

Barry simply cannot put a book down until he’s finished with it.

Clara would need some fabric for sure if Cleo followed her request…

Barry’s got plenty of traction with his book. His face appears stuck to it.

Good Sunday morning Cleophanatics! Hope everyone leapt forward at exactly 2AM… (my watch forgot. Who knew the stoopid thing had to be resynced?)

Y’all have a great day. Gonna be 30 degrees F warmer than yesterday. (((((HuGz!)))))

Plods, It looks like I just “missed you”! ;-)

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