Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for March 14, 2014

Ah yes, the new hair stylist Susan hired last Friday just moved in. Mildred doesn’t know it yet, but Arnold will be hanging on that tree a lot. Especially with warm weather coming and Trixie, for that is her name, likes poke-a-dot bikinis.

Happy Pi Day, everybody!

Just bringing in a little treat…

Superfrog…. Mixed berries… it adds a new flavor dimension.

It’s available by the square, or the radial slice…or whole, for carrying out to a hundred places…

Right, Essex…. so …. you old geezers perceive an otherwise extreme shortage on Ballard Street?

Good luck with Trixie….. Now, what kind of man was it she was telling me just yesterday that she was looking for… ?hmmm…

Oh yeah…. younger.

Hey X…. are you about?

Would you like some beer with your berry pi?

BTW, everybody, Jim Flannagan from Ballard Autoworks and Yarn Barn came down and bought a dozen gift certificates for my Pie Shop…. ….

They’re each good for a whole Berry Pi ….

…. for the first 12 purchasers today of two radial tires and a circular kniiting needle.

Tomorrow they’re good for a day-old pi and 4 cupcakes….or a fresh apple pie.

Gosh, X … I wouldn’t give you that swill…I know you’re diametrically opposed to it. And in fact, we don’t even have any in the area.

Missed it by a neck (actually referring to the comic / yeah, I know)

Papa’s got a few hang-ups…

Papa’s just acting naturally. Hanging out. :)Ya all,can speculate on what he sees.

“Hey! I can see Gary, and he’s… oh my!

Have a great pi day all of you BS’rs. :)

Papa’s a ‘whack-a-doodle’. New word they just put in the dictionary. I had to try it out.

Say hi to Garfield while you’re up there…

Arnold is a man of taste!

Think of the Duran Duran song “Girls on Film”. New title….MEN IN TREES…..Men in Trees.“Ohhhhhhh I’m a lumberjack and I’m okay.”“I sleep all night and I work all day.”“I cut down trees, I wear high heels”“Suspenders and a bra”“I wish I’d been a girlie, just like my dear papa.”NOW THINK ABOUT PAPA COMMUNING WITH NATURE!!!!!

Thank you, thank you…..I will be here all week…..oh but wait…..how can you be in two places at once when you are not anywhere at all.I have a degree from Bozo University…..rode the bus every day. (hahah)

Yea…..it was short….:-)))

Plenty of banana pi, Bev…

After all… it’s the Monkey’s bar.(no, not monkey bars….do you remember those? )

I gotta leave.Deal with you later, Ess….

So silly me! The morning news had pies of many flavors and I was busy with a doctor apt and preparing for my day out tomorrow, so it did not occur to me until a radio host mentioned 3-14 as PI day. So Happy PI day everyone, especially Susan with her lovely example (I’d LOVE that in dark chocolate with a dash of sea salt). So like my favorite snack ;-D

Got to go, as I’m meeting him early, we have more plans tomorrow. Good night all!

Night all…

Looks to me like he’s just hanging around outside.

No famous hat here…
