Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for May 29, 2018

How does he do it? He’s a natural!

Ladies, I am repeating an inquiry from yesterday, following Farside’s comment:

“We used to have girls come in for 3 cents of gas just to flirt.”

Hmm, would that remark resemble you, Rose? Perky? Susan? Montana? I bet Bev did it too.

Me? Moi?

The old man seems to be okay with that.

Too bad he can’t choose his master.

Spike also has learned the ancient art of Escrima. Which he has just now implemented by means of a surprise attack on his “Master.”

It’s not the size of your stick;it’s how you use it.

Do any dogs on Ballard Street LIKE their humans? They all seem to show a fine contempt for the servants.

And how he came to be named “Spike” is rather self-explanatory…

I love the expressions this cartoonist gets I the dogs. With just a few lines he shows so much

Thurber’s wife questions how his knee pain only seems to happen when he has to walk the dog.
