Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for December 19, 2013

The ugly side of Ballard Street

No lie, my dad’s name was Lyle, and he had a blue bathrobe, and this what I saw on a typical Sunday morning when I was a kid.

This one cuts too close to the bone for me.

Lyle telecommutes to work.

Oh… g’night Bev…. and good luck!

@bev, saying a prayer for your mom. Husband is having a biopsy tomorrow, could go either way.

Lyle may fancy himself but sure as heck no-one else will.

Lyle’s lifestyle is more of a blue bathrobe bachelor’s than a dressing gown gigolo’s. Instant coffee vrs. Dom Perignon !

Lyle Hefner: The Most Interesting Man in a Blue Dressing Gown on Ballard Street.

Well if I didn’t know before, I know now – I do not want a dressing gown life. I do like Beviek’s Lyle though

Shirley says you’re a manic depressive, not sure that description and this picture capture the reality of the moment. Of course Shirley knows Lyle better than he knows himself, but it sure looks like depressively depressive to me, but who knows I might be wrong. I suppose a person could be enthusiastly depressed, it sounds like a rare condition, but this is Ballard Street. Stan thinks you’re lazy, Ted knows for sure; Walter and Gene are still discussing the situation with a critical eye to current circumstances. Mark, James’ cousin will be back later in the month for more golf, he has a valued opinion and the gang is eagerly waiting for his assessment. Rusty Boy hid his leash to Lyle’s great delight and is spending more time on the basement floor another plus and a sign of a truly faithful dog. Lyle you know I have been a bigtime supporter, but its 1:30 and dressing gowns are more 11:30ish.

Good night Dry

You’re fooling no one, Lyle.

Watch out where the bassets go

and don’t you eat that yellow snow!
