Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for August 19, 2013

So that’s where my old Italian restaurant table cloth went !

BTW Roger is known to have a short fuse, and don’t mention " a penny for his thoughts…"

Roger may be introspective, maybe even introverted…. and he may not say much…. but he wears awfully loud pants.

Bev! Are you up?Would you like a late-night Yak ‘n’ Dak platter?

It’s on me!

WELL, not ON me…. but you know what I mean…..

Bev! Sorry! I got distracted down the street!

Glad you guys enjoyed the platters….

But I do NOT want to eat on a tablecloth that Roger has ever worn as pants!

Hi Susan

Oh …. Hi X …. would you care for a Yak ‘n’ Dak platter?

I’m giving away the last of Sunday’s yak…. so it’s on me.

The Monkey is making another batch tomorrow….

it’s been hot outside, so we’ve gone through a LOT of yak.

If I can sub a pint for the Dak then sure.

People come here instead of heating up their kitchens.

Of course…. I meant to offer….

Dark, right? Would you rather have a Red Tail?

Red Tail is just fine, thank you.

I’d comment on the strip but it would be short of being electrifying.

Brian — Maybe he’s pondering how much better it was when they had fuses, and a penny would work?

Yak for you?

X ,,, I guess those are the breaks…..

The lights have to go permanently out some time.

Roger should check with Ben in his toon

Lighten up, Rog!

Flick the switch Roger!!You only live once.

To bad . . in times past we could have said:.We are looking for a fuse, Goodmen . . . ☻

Roger will never be accused of being a switch hitter, … or will he ? …..

…..wait till he flips the black one…..

I don’t know Happy. Those look like something Herb Tarlic would wear. Good fashion sense tells me not to wear what he would wear.

Morning Susan, think anybody could rustle me up a yak omelette? The one I had the other morning was delicious. there seems to be introspection re: age this morning, We were talking about it at CD, and the consensus was that one is never too.

They can be reset, but it’s best to find out what caused them to trip before doing so.

Fellow Baby, Herb came by that honestly. Look at Herb Sr.!

I kept waiting for him to burst out singing “There She Is, Miss America!”

bev, tonight’s McLintock! night.

Good Evening all!I just ate, so I’ll pass on the yak platter (although it does look good!) I’ll have a wee Drambuie Fenton, if that won’t offend anyone’s sensibilities.

Since no one is here, I think I’ll retire early. To bed, that is.

I’ll join Shika and have a Drambuie, if it’s not too late.

Susan’s comment on “not ON me” reminded me of another old “Alice” movie (had Oliver Reed, always a good sign for me). I actually watched that on TV many years ago. I searched for it and wound up watching another movie on my PC (really don’t care to – such poor res in full screen).

GOOD NIGHT BALLARDEERS.

I’m lucky to have clothes from the 70s that are still stylish (evening and cocktail dresses that I designed) and they are currently either fitting or a little large (going veg just DID that).And only having virtual drinks helps too. there’s just one thing that is not as good virtually (or virtuously).

Good night here, too Balladeers!

As normal, I get to the party to late.Just as well, I’m tired.Herbal tea, and a couple of cookies, and bed.

Soon…

I am still here. I can’t sleep. HAPPY, you work hard. Glad to see you here. Good night. Sweet Dreams

DAZZ, thanks for joining me. Drambuie hits the spot. Have a good sleep.

Been there. SMOKIN!!!

Meanwhile, birds in love:

Good morning Balladeers and Tigressy!

Specifically, he is contemplating closing the circuit with his finger.
