I would like to know what Louis controls… or thinks he controls…
via that outdoor extension cord and whatever is plugged into it right over Loretta’s head.
I’m not sure I’d like that arrangement, if I were she.
I’d also like to feel that I have a bit more control … or at least a valued opinion….
when it comes to certain things happening on this site….
such as revamps presented as improvements, that take away privileges we once had,
like posting pictures and using different fonts.
I know it’s Universal’s site, and they pay for it…
maybe that bandwidth grew too expensive.
I’m not one to demand “free speech” or a vote in its management… it’s private property, and not mine.
But making our friends disappear, with no explanation, and not responding to polite discussion or questions about it, is…
well, all I can say is .. it’s disappointing.
Thank you, Linguist and Happy, for explaining about the Monkey….
but just in case it’s still not clear to some newer Ballard Streeters…
The “missing monkey” is not a “thing.”
He’s a person.
A real, live, Ballard Street (and other comics) commenter, who uses the name “Munky Bluz,” with various spellings and internal additions….
one of the very creative founders of Ballard Street as it is today, and a friend….
in our Ballard Street world, he was elected our Sheriff, he invented and owns the Tiki Bar, and he’s my boss.
In what they tell me is the real world, he’s been very busy at his job, and less able than previously to post here…..
so I didn’t realise for a few weeks that his comments had been made invisible.
This isn’t a fantasy or a game or a thing….
it’s about a real person whose input into Ballard Street is sorely missed.
Mudd, too, is a real person.
And Dogsniff.
All banned by GoComics and I’d like to bring them all back!
